RELAXING AFTER A BUSY DAY!



We had a busy day, and Jaxon slept through most of it (I read somewhere that newborns do that when overstimulated). We went to see Great-Grandma Phyllis and hung out with Grandma BB too. We also got to go see Aunt Tara, Cailyn, Carlyn and Grayson. It was fun! We are home now, and Jaxon has a full tummy and has been hanging out in his bouncy seat and looking at the toys on it! All is well, and we will spend a relaxing evening at home with Dad!

One Week Old!


Jaxon is one week old today. He is growing and changing. It is exciting, but definitely going too fast! I was finally able to get some pictures of him awake today. He is doing great . . .sleeping, eating, pooping and such! We go to get his pictures taken Friday, and he will also see the pediatrician on Friday. We got our packet for Relay for Life today. If anybody would like to donate to the American Cancer Society or buy a luminary, please let me know!! Jaxon and I will both be participating, and I know he would love to have your support!

The Three of Us




All of our company has gone and it is the three of us. The house is quiet, and we definitely miss all of the people that we love so much, but we have enjoyed our new little family. Brady and I have been hanging out with Jaxon, watching him sleep, holding him and talking about how incredible he is. Our little one will be one week old tomorrow! I can't believe it--it seems like he just arrived. It has gone so fast! If I had one wish it would be to freeze time for a little while! I value every second, but they fly by!

Getting Sleep


We had a great night last night. Jaxon slept! And he did it in his own bed. He only woke up twice to eat, and I was able to sleep too! It was great. Today he had his first outing. We went to the grocery store with Jessica, Jada and Tanner. Jaxon did great (of course he slept the whole time) and we are home and things are awesome!

Sleeping Angel


This little guy has stolen my heart in a way that I could have never have imagined! Everybody told me I would love him in an incredible way, and now I understand what they meant. The feelings I have for my little boy are bigger than I ever though possible. It is the most incredible feeling in the world. I love him so much and am so thankful that he is mine! Maybe it is the new mother thing, maybe part hormones, but it brings tears to my eyes! I have never had such strong feelings in my life, and I think it is great! Now I have an understanding of how much my mother loves me!

Our Miracle


Our little miracle arrived on 5-23-06 at 5:16 p.m. He weighed 7lbs 5 oz and was 20 inches long! We have been blessed with a healthy beautiful son! We are very thankful that the delivery was quick and easy and he is so very healthy! He is hungry and crying, so I will update again soon!

Induction Soon!!

I am sooooooooooo excited! I am scheduled to be induced tonight at midnight. Tonight I will get my cytotec to ripen my cervix, and tomorrow morning the Dr. will start a pitocin drip. Tomorrow night at this time I should have my little Jaxon in my arms. What an amazing feeling that will be.
