Facebook has taken over my blog

So it has been September since I blogged last and I have I missed many wonderful opportunities to share many wonderful things. Obviously, the birth of our third child (Darrell Keith Stewart, III) would be at the top of the list. He was born 10/10 at 10:18am - 9lbs, 15 oz and 22 inches long. We were afraid he was going to be induced and most likely a c-section but we were very blessed with him coming on his own and with a regular delivery. His birth was amazing and he has been probably my best baby. He is the perfect third child - very laid back, cries only when tired and hungry, and is very portable. I've loved the last 8 weeks and have fallen in love with him more and more each day. It makes me realize how quickly time goes by and I'm trying to enjoy each moment of tiny fingers, lips, bottoms, chins, tummys, ears, toes, heels, and everything else kissable on his tiny body.

Stewart Family Mission Statement

Back in April, our family (Darrell's Mom's brother and sister) got together in Lenior, NC to celebrate several April birthdays and attend Goudapalooza '08. As part of the celebration each family was asked to bring their Mission Statement. As you can see, I miss using the marketing/advertising part of my brain. We collected famous "tag lines" to create our mission statement.

The Stewart Family Mission Statement:
As a growing family we believe “We get it”. There has been “One love since 1994”. We “Believe in the best” and believe “This is the place to be”. We love our family and it is “Grown for pleasure”.
Every morning we “Wake up with the King “ and always “Answer to a higher authority”.
Mommy believes “The best part of waking up is Folgers in your cup” and we frequently find ourselves wondering “Got milk?”
Each day we promise to “Grab life by the horns”, even when “It takes a licking and keeps on ticking” because we believe “We bring good things to life” and “Quality is job one”. Often times “The only easy day was yesterday” and yet we are still grateful. We strive for “Getting things done” with our “Heart to God, hand to man”.
At the end of the day we still shout “Just do it”, “Do unto others as you would have done unto you”, and “Be all you can be”. But on the occasional “You deserve a break today”, “For all you do, this Bud's for you”. Because there are days where “Sometimes you feel like a nut, sometimes you don't”.
So, “Life's good” and “There's no life like it”. “Feel the force”. “It's everywhere you want to be”.
Because at the end of the day “You can't top the copper top”. “He keeps going and going and going”.
