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.

Our first day at church..

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

Christmas and Lately

We went down to Mesa with my family for Christmas. It was so fun to see everyone and the weather was beautiful! This is me at 31 weeks. I am getting bigger and bigger by the week! It is crazy how fast time goes. I haven't even gotten his room ready, but I think in the next 9 weeks we will have everything done for sure. We still haven't decided really on a name, once we pick one we like another one too!

Christmas Pictures

Here are some pictures getting ready for Christmas. This year we decided to just use this little fake tree. Don't worry our Kitty has already knocked it down once.

We decided to go around town to take our Christmas pictures. Brian's cousin Cody just used our camera and we just took a bunch of random pictures. It is still weird getting used to my pregnant body. It still doesn't feel like me, but I still have 15 more weeks, so I guess I will just be getting bigger from here. There are many more pictures, but I am still editing some of them, so this is what I have so far....

25 weeks..

This is probably our Christmas card this year..

Emotional..

Is it just because I'm pregnant or have I always been this emotional? Yesterday was 6 years since my dad has passed away. Time goes by so fast and it really feels like yesterday too. Most of the time I'm fine and life is normal. Then a memory hits or a song comes on or I see something that reminds me of him and I can't stop myself from crying. I'm so grateful for my family and friends that have helped me out in the last 6 years. I know that through my experiences in life it will help me be there for other people who need just as much as I did. Yesterday I was thinking how unfair it was that I only had 18 short years with him, especially having a baby and growing up. I know that he would be proud of me and is there for me more than I know. Love ya dad.

22 weeks

I'm now at 22 weeks and am feeling great! My little boy is growing everyday. I can now feel his kicks more strong. Every time he kicks I hurry and try to grab Brian so he can feel, he has only felt them a couple of times. I feel so lucky to have had such an easy pregnancy so far. I am crossing my fingers that it will be this easy the whole time. We still haven't figured out a name yet. We always sit down and say, OK what should this baby's name be! We are stuck between 3 names that we like, Boston -Peyton- and Brody. I can't decide because I like them all! I will keep my growing belly posted!
