Our little Dude

Well the last 6 weeks have been quite a learning experience!! Boston is getting bigger and bigger each day. He is sleeping better at night and is usually a pretty good baby. It has been an adjustment going from working full time, to staying home and taking care of this little one. Especially when he sleeps most of the day! It has been fun though and each day brings something new. Here are just a few pictures...











We tried not taking him out the first couple of weeks so he wouldn't get sick. But then Brian ended up getting him sick at our house, so I was like "Whatever! We are taking him out." I think that was the worst part the 1st couple of weeks(and breastfeeding). Once we have been able to him out it has been a lot better.

Boston is here!

Boston is here! He was born March 14th at 7:21 am. He was 7 lbs 4 oz and 21in long. He came a week early. We were at his grandparents eating dinner and my back started to hurt. I just thought that it was cause I was sitting too long. Then I went home and was in the bathroom and my water broke. I wasn't sure that was what it was at first cause I was expecting a lot more. So I called my doctor and he was like, yup you better get to the hospital. We hopped in the car and I was admitted into labor and delivery. This was at about 8 pm the night before. I got the epideral and they put me on pottasim(?) but the epideral only worked on half of my body so I was dillated to a 10 and could feel everything on my left side. Then I got really sick from all the medication and was throwing up all night, during labor, when I was pushing, when they handed him to me- It was horrible! WHen they told me to start pushing I was allready so exhausted from being sick and on top of that I was pushing for 3 hours. Boston was stuck under my pubic bone and would not come out. FINALLY they got the doctor in there and he got the suction thingy and they pulled him out. All I can say is that it was the most physically demanding thing I had ever done. I was so exhausted afterward all I wanted to do is sleep. Now Boston is 3 1/2 weeks old and is doing good. He is getting bigger and bigger every day. Sad to say Our camera was STOLEN at the hospital.. so all of our pictures are gone!! These are from our phones. I will post more as we get them
