Long nights... long days!

Jett slept 10 hours last night... whew! I was in pain. I got up at 6 so I could pump. I fed Jett the bottle when I woke him up at 7:30. He sucked down 8 and a half ounces. He must have been so hungry! He has not gone that long at night so, I was ready for him to wake up. I hope my body adjusts really fast. I don't have much else to say, but here are a few pictures from when Truett and I made cupcakes. We waited until we were all finished to lick the batter.

Sweet sleepless nights

So much catching up to do...

Now off to sleep I go!

He gets sweeter

Truett had a great birthday party last month

Truett's birthday came and went. We had so much fun celebrating with our friends. I can't believe my big boy is 3. Thank you God for my little buddy!

Here is an update of most of January through pictures. Forgive me for letting myself go! I'll try to do better now. ;)

Where is my beloved... SPRING!!??

I've been stuck inside for the last 2+ months and I'm soo ready to get out in the warm, Louisiana, Spring weather. This has to be the longest winter, ever! I have plenty of pictures to share with you. So, I hope to have many posts to come.

Jett Benjamin

He's here! After being 6 days late and being told he weighed 8 lbs. Jett Benjamin arrived:

November 29, 2009
6 pounds 13 ounces
20 inches
5:14 a.m.

He looked so small. I did get my VBAC, and almost LOVED labor. We arrived at the hospital at 10:30 and was only 3 cm and 100% effaced they told me the effacing takes the longest time, the dilation goes quickly, and boy did it ever. From midnight to 4 am I went from a 4 to fully dilated! They came in and told me to take a few "practice" pushes... after the first push the nurse said "Call the doctor, the baby is in the birth canal". After about 6 contractions he was out. I'll hopefully give the long version later.

Good-Bye! Hello!

Good-bye 40 weeks! Hello 41 weeks! I was due this past Monday and still waiting on my sweet little Jett to arrive. I have been have BH contractions for months now. In the last week they have become regular, then sometimes after resting they slack up a bit! I can't believe sometimes I get a minute long contraction every 5 minutes for 2 hours or more. I lost my mucous plug and have been having more TMI than you can imagine. I have menstrual like cramping on and off throughout the day but no "Gotta go to the hospital" signs! I am 1 cm and 100% effaced, I just wonder if he is waiting on something (I guess his given birthday). So, my guess was way wrong and will have to guess another day. I've officially changed it to this Thursday the 26th. Maybe a turkey baby!

Rockin Truett and the Wiggles!

Truett is into the Wiggles... he loves to play his guitar and use a feather for a sword (Captain Feathersword) Since I'm as huge as a house I don't get to dance as much as I'd like, I've resorted to taking pictures. :)
