3 Years and Counting

Last Friday Jordan and I hit our 3 year mark : ) I can't believe how fast time is flying. Since we haven't done anything the previous years because it falls on Labor Day weekend usually we decided to take a mini vacation. We stayed at Tapitio Cliffs this weekend and had so much fun. That is one of our favorite resorts. Here are some pictures from are great weekend.

6 Weeks

I can't believe our little baby boy is already 6 weeks old today. He is already growing up : ( He smiles in the morning when he wakes up and is starting to make more sounds. He is such a cutie pie.

Teagan's 1st Day at Church

So yesterday was Teagan's 1st day going to church. He did so well. He basically slept the whole time and only fussed a little bit during relief society because he was getting a hungry but then fell back to sleep.

I finally found a copy of Baby Wise and started reading it last week. So today is my first official day of starting. For the last week or so he has decided that he doesn't really care to take naps during the day. So I knew I needed to get him back on track. I gave him his first feeding at 6:30 and then the next at 9:30 and he stayed awake until 10:30. He was fighting so hard not to go to sleep. He only likes sleeping in his boppy pillow during the say. It is the craziest thing. So I will keep my fingers crossed that this will help him get on a better schedule. : )

This, That and More

So much has happend in the last few weeks. Jordan got really sick, the baby got an ear infection and my Dad flew in last Friday to take my Mom back home. It's really weird not having my Mom here. She was here for 3 whole months!!! Once I got put on bedrest she came to help out. She was such a big help. I am so grateful to have her as a Mom. I miss her so much already.

Well we had some birthday's in our house. I turned 23 on July 31st and Jordan turned 26 on August 8th. I just want to say Happy (Late) Birthday to my wonderful hubby. I love him so much and I don't know what I would do without him : )

Also my little boy turned 1month on Monday August 10th : ( I can't believe how old he is getting already. Time goes by way to fast. He went for his one month check up today and here are his stats haha.

H: 21 1/4 Percentile 25th
W: 8lbs 8oz Percintile 15th

I know his percentiles are low but he has come a long way lol. He has put on 2lbs 6oz and grown almost 3 inches since leaving the hospital!!! He is growing super fast. I just figured he must not have had any room left in me to grow and now he is making up for it haha. Here are some new pictures of what he's been up to.

1st Day Of School and 1st Bath

The girls started school today : ( Summer went by so fast. Today was Baylee's 1st day of school. I can't believe how big she getting. She did so good. I thought that maybe she might cry but she stayed strong. She did have a look on her face when she was standing in her classroom line like " What did I get myself into" haha. I can't wait to talk to them and see how their 1st day went.

Here is Teagan when he took his first real bath. He loved it! Everytime I had to wash him down with a hand towel and soap he would get so mad. So needless to say I was a little nervous about the bath but he loved it so much. He just hangs out in his little hammock lol. He is the cutest thing ever.

Our Little Boy

I can't believe how quickly they change. He is already 2 weeks old today!!!! He is getting so big already. I was looking at pictures when he was first born and he already looks different. I took him to the doctors on Monday because he nose has been has stuffy. I know first time mom worries about everything lol. The doctor says he looks great. In less then a week he put on another 10oz!!! What a chunk. The doctor and nurses says that means I have good milk haha. Other then that he is doing great. He goes through about 3 outfits a day and loves sleeping on mom. I am trying to enjoy it while it lasts. I try and put him in his bed for most of his naps but I hate being away from him. He is just to darn cute. Here are some new pictures of him.

Baby Teagan

So it has Taken me a little longer to get to this post up again lol. As many know life with a newborn is a little crazy. Teagan has been a great baby thus far haha. Let's hope that doesn't change. I know wishfull thinking lol.

So on Thursday my doctor did the Non-Stress Test and everything looked good but he was still very concerned about my two ultra sounds. He said that they were so different from each other that he didn't want to wait any longer for me to have the baby. That being said he stripped my membranes and sent me to the hospital to be induced.

They started me on pitocin at 1pm and said that we would see how that went. The medicine got my contractions to come every 2-5 mins but it still wasn't making them any stronger. By 5am the next morning I was still at a 3 and my cervix was still in the mid range. The nurse said that the doctor would be by at some point to break my water.

Well by 9am my contractions were coming every 2 min and had gotten stronger. The nurse talked to my doctor and he said he would be by that afternoon but I could go ahead and get my epidural. I wanted to get it but I was so scared. I cried like a big baby all the way through. I was more scared for that then I was for delivery. Needless to say after that I felt great. My right leg was completly numb lol. I couldn't move it for the life of me.

Around 2-3pm my doctor came in and broke my water. After that things progressed quickly. The nurse checked me at 4pm and I had dialated to a 7. She told me I was going to start feeling a lot of pressure and to try and stick it out for as long as possible. Which wasn't really a problem because I had gotten a shot of benidrill because I was so itchy so all I was doing was sleeping lol.

At 5pm she came back and I told her the pressure had gotten a lot stronger and I felt like if I sneezed he would come out. When she checked me she said that if I did sneeze he probably would come out lol. So she called the doctor and started to get everything ready.

She had me do a few practice pushes and after 2 told me to stop because his head was already coming out. The doctor got there a few minutes later and told me not to push. He said that baby was coming out on his own. My contractions were pushing him out. Once his head came out my doctor told me to give a little push. Well as soon as I started pushing he said stop because the baby came flying out lol.

Baby Teagan was BORN!!!! I couldn't beleive it. I was in shock. Even the nurses and doctor couldn't believe how easy he came out. Teagan is doing great. Passed all of his tests with flying colors. He is healthy, strong and couldn't get anymore precious.

He went to his first doctors appt. yesterday and the doctor said he looks wonderful. We are so greatful for out new little boy. He is the most precious gift from heavenly father.
