Welcome to the world Maddox Terrell Campbell!!

It seems so surreal that our little man is now here! Maddox was born on May 18th, 2014 at 2:56pm. He weighed a whopping 8 lb 12 oz and was 21in long. I would never have guess he would weigh that much!! The contractions started about 3:30am Sunday morning. By 7am I decided we should just go to the hospital. We called our amazing neighbor Janet Hart and she came and stayed with our other kids. Our other good friends and Bishop, the Orgills took the kids to stake conference. Later my mom and sister Sheerstie came and stayed with the kids. Delivery could not have gone any better!! All my nurses were amazing and of course Dr. Leavett!! Grant delivered Maddox just like he did Parker. It was a very cool experience for him and I both. I could not believe my eyes when Maddox was born with a full head of black hair and blond highlights. He was the most beautiful thing I had every seen!!!
 We took one last shot of the belly before heading to the hospital :) 
 Pirate eye!
 This was taken seconds after he was born,and he grabbed my finger. It was such a precious moment!! 
 Daddy time.
 It was obvious he had sucked his hands and fingers in the womb. He is constantly putting them in his mouth and sucking on them.

 Daddy giving Maddox his first bath. He hated the bath, but loved having his hair washed. 
After we got settled in our room, my mom and sister brought the kids to meet Maddox. 




For some reason I don't have the picture of Carter holding Maddox. My mom and sister have a bunch, but I don't have any of them yet. I will have to add one later. :)

I was not the best at getting pictures with all the visitors. 

 I love how much Maddox looks like Grant in this picture. 
 sucking his thumb
 Grant is the best dad ever!! 
Mommy and Maddox getting some snuggle time! 
 Time to Head Home!!
 Maddox was a little big for his newborn outfit we bought to bring him home in :) It is the outfit we bought to announce that he was a boy at Christmas. 

 I don't love myself in this picture, but I just had a baby 2 days before, so it is what it is :)
 Sound asleep!
Time to go home and adjust to having 5 kids!! oh boy! 
Welcome to the Family Maddox!!!
