Easten Taras Turko entered our family on March 9th at 8:48 pm. I was a week over due and ready for this little guy to be here! He was 8lbs 14oz and 22.25 in long!! I was induced around noon and my water broke around 5:30 and he was here at 8:48. I was so glad that he was here and that everything went well!! He is just beautiful and we love him sooo much! Brady is a great big brother...he just loves him!! He is always giving him kisses and always wants to sit by me when I am feeding him!! He is a big help! He is going to be a great big brother! Dad is happy too....he loves his boys it's so cute when he comes home and he sees them, his face just lights up!! He is a great dad and husband!! Love you babe! My mom is here and has been a big help!! I don't wont her to leave! It's nice having her here! Thanks mom for all you have done, we love and appreciate it lots!! She is a great grandma and Brady loves her!! They have had such a great time together! He is going to miss her when she leaves and the same with her!! I wish we lived closer so that everyone could see them more often! Here are some pics I know everyone has been waiting sorry it has taken me so long!
