1 week

1 week ago I had my precious baby girl. She has already gained back her birth weight and then some! She is 8.4 lbs now and 19.75 inches. Ah booby milk does wonders...hehehe...Hailey and Wyatt are adjusting rather well....Wyatt is still and little needy and wanting to be held a lot but he's getting there. If he weren't 42 lbs I'd pick him up in a heartbeat! But we snuggle when we can and he has daddy to hold him for a bit.

Natalie Paige is here!

On Sept 18th at 3:47 pm she made her debut into the world. After 11 hours of labor I had a successful VBAC ~ with the help of forceps. She had her hand stuck by her head and was unable to come out after many pushes. She weighed 8 lbs 2.5 oz and was 19.5 inches long. She looks just like Wyatt!

What did she say?

So Hailey and my dad were talking this morning and she had on her horoscope shirt from Old Navy....it says Capricorn on the front and describes the sign on the back...and my dad says to her "Are you a Capricorn?" and Hailey says "Do I smell like one?" LoLoLoL

To train or not to train....

That is the question....So today Wyatt was running around w/o a diaper as I let him do on occasion....he came up to me holding his winkie and says "pee pee" so I asked him if he wanted to sit on the potty and he runs to the bathroom screaming "poootttyyyy" So I sit him up there backwards and wait 5 minutes..."no pee pee"....."get down" he says....so I get him down. 10 minutes later "pee pee" "pooootttyyyy" and we try again....still no pee pee but he has "butt bubbles" in the potty (he farted)....so we get down again....5 minutes later I hear "pee pee" "uh oh" and the sound of peeing on my carpet.....at least he sat on the potty right?!! Ah well I know I have a long year ahead of me....

39.4 weeks

3 days til my due date...will I make it?! Who knows....its a full moon so maybe I will go early! Come on gravity! Pull that baby down! hahaha Ah well I guess she should wait til friday when my parents will be here....anyways enjoy the pic of me from today! Yes, I know...I'm HUGE!

Today is....

Wyatt's 2nd birthday!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY WYATT!!!

Mommy loves you!

the tour...sucked!

So Brandon and I went on a tour of the L&D at the hospital today....SOOO not what I was thinking it would be....it was very short and not detailed at all....hello I have questions!! Turns out we labor and deliver in one room then have to transfer to another room for recovery...what happened to staying in 1 room for the whole event?! And when did they come out with that new privacy act law that you can't view the newborns thru the windows?! So we didn't get to see any new babies...like the brochure said we would....oh well....soon enough we'll see our own new baby!

Now...what to name her....?????

Its almost time!!!

Our baby girl will be here soon! Due in 5 days but I have been losing a lot of my mucous plug yesterday and today so she might be here before friday! My parents are supposed to be coming up on friday and she's supposed to wait til then but I dunno....she might come early! Been having irregular contractions though....so we will see! I hope she waits at least 2 more days....I'm having a small party at the park with some friends for Wyatt's b-day tomorrow....met some great girls on Cafemom.com who have kids Wyatt's age....been to a few playgroups and he gets along great with the other kids! Now do I make the cupcakes or buy them from Wal-Mart...hmm....LoL I'm Betty Crocker...what do you think I will do! hahaha

High and tight

I bet all you military readers are thinging I'm going to talk about my hubby's hair cut....but actually I am referring to my cervix! LOLOLOLOL It just dawned on me last night....its up high and shut tight....hence high and tight! hehehehe

p.s. my hubby shaves his head just about bald....

Stirring things up a bit

So I had my Dr appt today....only 50% effaced and still closed up....my cervix was so high up the poor Dr 's hand was practically coming out of my throat! OUCH!!! She decided to stir things up a bit and poke around in there....so we could have a baby any day now! But most likely she will wait til next week to make her arrival....she seems pretty cozy in there....

Welcome to my blog

Ok so I am new at this.....my friend, Averi, had mentioned I should blog so here I am starting a blog....Given that I am due "any day now" this will probably be a weekly thing...once things settle down I'll try to post daily as there are a lot of things the kids do and say that is interesting or funny.
