Star wars baby and funny

I have discovered our little boy is destined to be a star wars fan. First cuz of this adorable star wars shirt his aunt kristen gave him. (which is size 6 months and he is only 3 months old). Second because of his name being shakobe his dad calls him Obee Won Konobee. And third because after he was first born his little Yates cousins would say a prayer for him every night and one evening it was his cute cousin Simons turn to say family prayer and having a hard time pronouncing his name he says, "And please bless Shewbauka." Lol thats my favorite nick name for him ever. So he's got
the gear, referred to as a famous jedi, and a tall furry creature that faught with the jedi. We are very proud to have our litlle Obee Shewbauka! May The Force Be With You!!!


This is my all time funniest picture I have ever taken. Kynlee was completley done with picture time and shakobe is just sitting there sucking on his bottom lip looking at me like "Mom why are you making us do this."

These two shared a stroller together it was so cute. They just layed there and talked to each other and little kynlee even put up wth shakobe trying to eat her face. lol.

Blessing Day and Month One

Today was a big day for our family. We were able to bless Shakobe along with his little cousin Kynlee. It was such a special day Im so glad they were able to share it together. I just wanted to say thank you to our wonderful family and friends for coming and supporting us on this day. I have to share some of my favorite pictures of our little guy from today and catching up on the last couple weeks. Can you believe it he will be four weeks on tuesday? Where has the time gone?? P.S. If you put the mouse on each picture we labeled them so be sure to read it.

Shakobe Jackson Rigby

Thats right everyone our little angel has finally arrived. It took some work to get him into this big big world but I can honestly say it was worth every single minute of it. It all started on mothers day May 8th (my due date) me and Gregg made it to the hospital at 7 p.m. to be induced I don't want to bore or possibly scare any of those wonderful future mothers out there so I will just say that through everything that happened I'm even more in love with my husband then I was before (which I didn't think was possible.). He was my rock through the whole process and he did absolutely everything he possibly could to help me through labor. Even just having him there next to me never leaving my side was so comforting I cant thank him enough for that.

Monday the 9th was a blur of ups and downs but thankfully if I had to say something great about the whole thing it would be that Shakobe 's heart rate stayed so strong and perfect through the whole long must I say painful process. Skipping to the Grand Finale our beautiful baby boy decided it was time to enter the world on Tuesday May 10th at 3:47 a.m.! 8 pounds 8 ounces 21 inches long. He is such an amazing baby words can not express how happy we are. Because of the long labor and the fact that I ended up with a fever towards the end; Shakobe ended up in the nicu for what we were told would possibly be a week because he had a slight temperature which could be from an infection. Me and Gregg impatiently waited to here results from his labs. Someone upstairs was looking over him because what was suppose to be at least 48 hours turned into two maybe three hours and he was back in our room with us.

I cant end this post without thanking our families for being so completely amazing staying at the hospital waiting for our little guy to come. I cant express my gratitude to my sisters for coming into my room and showing there support and even making me laugh about the whole thing. They even brought there kids which I love so much and was so glad they were there for me even though they couldn't come see me. And I have to say thank you to My dad and Greggs dad for giving me a blessing when Gregg asked for it. They all found uncomfortable spots to spend the night and waited til he finally made it us. Love you all for staying next to the door or next to the phone to show your love and support to our new little family. It makes me so emotional to say that I'm so so happy shakobe has such an amazing family behind him. Love you, now what you have been waiting for an overload of pictures!!! Going to begin with my favorite picture Daddy and Shakobe sleepin at the hospital. You will also notice a picture of him with his cousin Kynlee. I know what your thinking and its true she is two weeks older. lol, love our little guy!!

Happy Birthday Jamie!!!

Kanyon man was ready to have some birthday cake!!!

Jamie decided the birthday noise was not good enough unless

she joined in so here she is singing happy birthday to herself. Lol

The Nerdy Birthday Girl!

Me 32 Weeks an Jess at 33 weeks. Almost there.

This is what happens when you keep us girls awake after

ten at night. LOL. We had lots of fun.

I had to show you what I woke up to this morning. Saylor wanted to sleepover

and she is so cute she always has to be snuggled right up to Gregg. Love them so much.

So this Friday was my sister Jamie's birthday. I was so excited they decided to come down and celebrate with us. She decided she wanted us all to go to Texas Roadhouse friday night for her birthday dinner. I was hoping to get a picture of her on the saddle but lucky for her; in the words of jamie and my dad I would say, "We had a great waiter, but the poor guy was just having a rough night." For those of you that know my dad and Jamie I know you are picturing them saying that. I'm not as nice as them I wish I was, but I know jamie was happy that he still forgot after telling him twice that it was her birthday. After dinner we went back to my sister Jess's house for cake and ice cream. Yum! Yum! Then saturday we had a girls shopping day which I told Jamie I would go as long as we finished the trip with ice cream. So we shopped until we literally dropped, then went to charlie's and enjoyed some delicious ice cream.

I just want to tell Jamie that I hope she had a fabulous birthday and I love her so much. She does so much for me and I sure appreciate all the love and support she gives me. Happy Birthday Jamer your the best!!!
