Day 3 Update and Misc. Fun

Michelle had a little more pain today, but is doing very well. Caleb is doing great! He's the best looking boy in the nusery.


Today was a great day for Dad because I got to spend some time with Nate and Jonathon. We went to the local airshow. We had a great time watching planes and enjoyed the people. The jet van was my personal favorite and boys liked everything especially the fly throughs.

I have uploaded some new pics from day 3, the airshow, and a few misc. fun ones.

A Great Day-Day 3 Update

Today was a great day! Jonathon and Nate got to meet their brother today. Nate seems really syked about it. Jonathon just wants to sit with mom. After about 20 minutes we realized these rooms were not quite big enough for the boys, so i took them to the playground. we had a great time playing and running around. After playing hard they headed home to our house with grandma ann and aunty paula. Tomorrow the boys, papaw, and me will head to the airshow which should be a ton of fun considering the boys point and stare at every plane that flies over our house. Did I mention they love noise too.

It was great having friends and family stop by today. It was great help in broking up the day. Looking forward to tomorrow for a ton of fun.

Day 2 Update & Pictures from Day 1

we (mommy, daddy, and caleb) got some much needed rest last night. Michelle has gotten some good rest since the nurses stopped probing her. (the nurses have been awesome!!!) Caleb has been in and out with us throughout the night. He is sleeping like crazy, which I know will probably be short lived. He is looking forward to see his big brothers (Jonathon & Nate) later today! Below is a link to pictures from day 1. Thanks again for all the prayers and love. You are each welcome to visit.

He is Here

That is one good looking dude and one hot looking mommy!


Caleb Matthew Britt has arrived!!!!! He made it at 5:32pm on Thursday, June 26th, 2008. He is 8 lbs. 9 oz. and 20". He is a big dude! We don't mind visitors but we ask that you call before you come. We want to make sure Caleb is available to see you if you get a chance to make it by. Thanks so much for all your prayers and support!

Update-5pm-heading in for the arrival

we are getting ready to head in for a c-section. Baby Caleb should be here just after 5pm. this will be the last update until he is here.

Update-1:46pm

We are still in Labor and Delivery room 1. We just saw the doctor. He says there is little progress with the natural labor so it looks like we will have a c-section later this afternoon. The Doc. will come in one last time at 4pm and see how things are, then we will make a final decision. I think at this point we are cool either way. Michelle is keeping us busy with all of her weather knowledge. You can post a great joke or a hospital activited so we can stay busy. Thanks so much for your continued prayers.

Noon Update

we are currently still waiting! We are hoping to see Dr. Cimino soon. We hear he is on the floor, but getting ready to do a c-section on another patient before he comes to see us. Michelle is very hungry but doing well. We will continue to keep you posted.

Arrived at the Hospital

we are at the hospital preparing for the birth of our 3rd son. No Caleb yet! Michelle is just settling in. We are not sure about a timeline or when Caleb will arrive. We are going to try induce labor but if it doesn't happen we will do a c-section at some point. I will try to update my blog from time-to-time with updates. Thanks so much for your prayers! We look forward to seeing and hearing from you all.

Kid's Music

this video made me laugh. There is nothing spiritual about it, but it is funny. Especially if you have kids.



It would definatly make children's music more interesting.

What do you think?

Sing to the King
Mighty to Save
From the Inside Out
Here is our King

All I have to say is:

Facebook and other stuff

I’ve been a little busy lately so I haven’t had a chance to blog recently. I’m hoping to do it more even though we are approaching the birth of our son. His name will be Caleb Matthew just in case you wanted to know. I know he is already going to be one of the best looking guys along with Jonathon and Nate. We will get a chance to see the doctor next week and probably find out just how close we are to this incredible life.

I finally gave in today! To facebook that is. I have purposely rebelled against it until now. Every one has raved about it, so we’ll see. I love tech stuff! I’d love to hear what you think is best about facebook besides all those people popping on screen for possible friend request that I have no idea who they are.
