Tatum Brooke Mavroulis

Niece # 5 made her long awaited arrival this morning at 1:55 A.M.

Tatum Brooke Mavroulis weighed in at a whopping 7 pounds 2 ounces and was 20 & 1/2 inches long.

Girlfriend made us wait it out all week long... Amanda was due on July 3rd and originally scheduled to be induced on the 7th. Monday, the 7th, her induction was canceled because the rooms were full and they rescheduled for the 10th (my birthday). Thursday morning we were all hoping for good news only to be told again that there were no rooms. I can not imagine the feelings going through Cory and Amanda, but they held it together like champs. Thankfully Amanda's doctor wanted to check her out and after being on our toes all day long we got a text at 5:30 saying "it's go time!".

I had hoped for Tatum and I to share a birthday... ya know so I could be the favorite Aunt ;) but Tatum had other plans. She let us wait in the hospital in anticipation for about 8 hours before she made her grand entrance into this world! She's one stubborn and special girl already. She fits into this Mavroulis/O clan perfectly! 

         Amanda & Cory are now a family of 3!

I can not wait to see Tatum and Maddyn grow together... let's be real I want them to stay babies forever. But really, it is going to be so fun. The Mavroulis/Ocheskey babies are up to 6! I am so in love with each of them. Tatum has entered into one big and blessed family. Cory and Amanda you guys are going to be great parents. I hope we get to add to the cousins someday ;)

Weekend Update

What... it is Monday already? This weekend was one for the record books. 4th of July was spent at the pool with family. We went to some friends house to watch the fireworks... you could see them every way you looked. I love July 4th! We enjoyed melon balls, beverages in our sublimated koozy, and many games of corn hole!










The weekend was also full of wedding events! Hannah was a stunning bride Sunday and we all enjoyed celebrating her and Shane! It was  BEAUTIFUL wedding






Baby Tatum has not made her arrival and is making everyone pretty impatient! Come on baby tatum we want to meet you!
