Finally our little boy is here. It was a very long pregnancy for me, and for everyone else involved. My poor family had to put up with a lot. I was on modified bedrest for 8 weeks! I was also on Terbutatline for 8 weeks!! This medication was to stop contractions I was having. Talk about a long pregnancy...I went on 3 ambulance rides to the ER with bleeding, first time at 31 weeks, then 34, and then finally at 36 weeks. Oh yeah, that was fun. Thankfully the one at 36 weeks was the last one. We have had so many people praying for us, people I haven't even met! We are so greatful for this. God has seen us through this whole thing and we are so blessed to have a healthy son. His name is Benjamin Scott. He weighed 6#13oz, 19" long, born April 13th! Not bad for 4 weeks early. :)) If I had gone full-term he would have been huge! Ben is doing so well. When he came out, he was breathing on his own, and was doing well. They kept him for a few days to make sure he didn't have problems later. We couldn't be any happier!! Ben is the best baby!! So far he is very happy, and just sleeps away and wakes up for feedings. This is definelty making it a lot easier on me and I am able to get pretty good sleep. :)) yeah for that!! Let's hope he stays this easy. :) So here are a few pictures of Benjamin in his first few days. Thank you everyone for all your help and prayers during my pregnancy!!

Happy Birthday!

Here are some random photos I have been meaning to post. Hopefully everyone is having a good week. Mine is getting better today, thankfully my cold is starting to diminish. :) Oh, one cute thing Kelly says now, is Brrrr. If I ask her to say the word 'cold', she says Brrrrr. It is so cute!

It's already a new year, and I can't believe it!! I didn't even get up my Christmas photos up yet. How sad is that. We found out back in december that we are going to be having a boy. This is really cool news for us. We were both hoping for a boy. The only down side to this pregnancy is that right now I have placenta previa, which is where the placenta is covering my cervix.(not good) So basically if it stays this way I will have to have a C-section. There is a slim chance it may move, but not likely. So, I will keep you posted on that. I must say shopping for boy clothes is totally different, and I will say so far I like girl clothes better. Actually I am a little scared to have a boy. I mean seriously, girls are pretty easy, and boy parts are not what I am used to. Thank goodness I have lots of friends and relatives with little boys to give boy advice and tips. More news, my mom finished her radiation Dec. 22nd! hooray! She is feeling good, and is really glad to be done. Kelly is still doing very well, and is getting cuter and cuter each day. so chaty and fun. not much else new. just waiting until may 10th (my due date). Don't get me wrong, I enjoy pregnancy, but I am ready to be done and get in shape. Here is a pic of our little dude.
