37 weeks

Full term and so close!! I can't believe I could have this baby any day.  I am so glad it has come. This has been a more difficult pregnancy with all the bed rest and contractions, anemia, low thyroid etc, and I truly wondered how I could keep it going, but thank heavens for an amazing ward and husband who took my kids a lot. I couldn't have done it with them. 

Recently I feel like I have gotten a second wind with this pregnancy.  The pelvic pain I had is finally gone for the most part, but because I am off magnesium(it was to help control my contractions) I have started getting major headaches. The only thing that cures it is caffeine.  So occasionally I get a dr. Pepper when I can't take it anymore. Dr. Pepper makes everything better right? Ha!  I haven't had to nap or sleep as much in general lately. I think it's because I have realized it is crunch time, and I have a lot to do before this girl makes her debut. So nesting is definitely back.

Normally with my other two I was so anxious to get them here at 37 weeks and wondered if they would ever come, but this time I understand that a newborn and having 3 kids in general will be a challenge. I am perfectly content and uncomfortable with this baby inside. She can come When finals are done, my house is clean, all the baby bottles and such are washed, and Christmas is finished being made and wrapped. All this should be done by next week.... Hopefully. School will be for sure!

I saw my midwife yesterday. She said I am still measuring a week (38weeks) ahead of schedule and I am 1cm dialated and 50% effaced. I have come a long way since last week!!  I am so happy because there were a few nights were I was consistently contracting for a good 2 hours. I am glad I have something to show for it. I am taking primrose oil to help make more progress in the coming weeks. I've been told by multiple people that it works great!

We are really hoping she makes her debut before Christmas. It makes it much easier for us and those people watching our kids. We are so excited to meet our little one and can't wait to snuggle her! 

33 weeks

For the most part I am feeling great!! I am pretty tired, if I get a good 10 hours of sleep a night I'm good though. I just need a cat nap in the day instead of a full blown 2 hour nap.

I am almost as big now as I was with Hayden and grace when I delivered them. 

I am starting to get into the nesting antsy phase again as we get closer. Things like buying Christmas are already getting started at our house. 

Yoga has been my best friend lately.  I'm starting to really get uncomfortable elbow and knee jabs.

My latest craving has been cold sugar cereal. I mostly crave this at night. Cocoa pebbles are amazing!!! 

Things are feeling like they are slowing down, but then I think about thanksgiving coming up, my finals, Ron's finals, and Christmas! Then I get a little over whelmed.  I still have lots to do.

6.5 more weeks!!!!

28 Weeks- THIRD TRIMESTER!!!!

I was starting to get a big behind in the baby updates! I don't want her to feel like I didn't care, cause I do! Life is just crazy, and I haven't felt like blogging. I am not even 28 weeks anymore I am 29!

So BABY update!! We are basically ready for this baby to come. Everything is washed and put away and done! Its been so lovely. I have a few minor things in the nursery to do. Mostly they are decorations, and then can wait. I still have 11 weeks after all.

I feel like in the last month or so my belly hasn't grown much. Maybe that is just me.  I do feel her moving a lot more since she is big enough to finally be kicking through my placenta. It really fun to feel her. She is such a relaxed calm baby! All she does is a few kicks here and there, but for the most part I feel her stretch and then she goes back to just hanging out.

Since about 24 weeks on and since I got the approval from my midwife, I have started working out a lot more. I have to still be very careful with my low-lying placenta, but she said it was okay to go interval running, do zumba, go walking and such. It feels so good to be out running again even if I am a slow turtle and probably look even worse!

My mom came and visited a few weeks ago and started to show Ron and I hypnobirthing. She is a labor and Delivery Nurse and trying to become a certified hypnobirth coach. That just shows how dedicated she is to her job. haha Seriously though, Hypnobirth is crazy!!! She hypnotized both Ron and I! She left us  with ideas on what we need to do to prepare for sweet baby girl's arrival. We just need to practice.

From about 20-25 weeks I felt AMAZING!! I had so much energy, and then after my mom left so did my energy. I seriously nap 1-2 hours a day, while the kids nap.  Thankfully Hayden and Grace are angels and are so good if they see me dose. I think they secretly like it because they know they will get a couple of freebie shows out of it.

As far as cravings go it was SUGAR SUGAR SUGAR! For a long time. I finally put a halt to it and decided I WILL crave other things!!! So now currently my craving is water, and occasionally Fruit. Seriously I can't get enough of the water though. I can't stand vegetables. I seriously have to gag them down so this baby gets a liking for them. Salads are the worst. I think Ron is secretly happy that I don't like them right now.

I am starting to just now get up in the night to get drinks and go potty, and I hate it! I know it won't last long though.

This week I get to go in for my glucose Test. Along with that they are checking my vitamin D, Thyroid and Iron. All things I have problems with. Crossing my fingers that I pass! In a couple weeks after that I get to go in for another ultrasound to see if my placenta is still low lying. If it is they monitor it up until 36 ish weeks. If it hasn't moved by then, I get a c-section.... Which the only thing I like about that is knowing which day my sweet baby will be here, but even then I hate it because I hate induction!!! Anyways Prayers that it has moved!!

I am seriously amazing at how fast this pregnancy is flying. We are keeping so busy around the house with getting ready for our sweet babe, Hayden being in Preschool, Grace just being Grace, Ron doing full time work and full time school and teaching elder's quorum, and I am keeping busy being a mom, doing school myself, taking Hayden to school and play dates, being primary chorister getting ready for the big program and who knows what else!! Life has been a bit of a blur! Now the holidays have hit, and a long with that is a whole new "To Do" list. I have to get everything done well before Christmas since I am due only 3 days after. Needless to say I think these last 11 weeks will go so fast! I am soaking every minute I can with my 2 littles. It makes my heart ache a little that I am bringing a new little person to barge in on their territory. They are so excited and it makes me so happy that they are.

I can't really complain about anything right now. Despite all the complications we have had, I am so blessed with rather easy pregnancies, and I love it for the most part. I can't wait to snuggle this little girl!!!

20 weeks

Okay so this post is actually 2 weeks late. But if you read the previous post you will know why. Its been a bit of a crazy month, but things seem to be looking up. Thank Heavens!!!

I finally seem to be getting my energy levels back. Thank heavens!!This sweet baby is taking up every nutrient in my body as well as sucking all the energy out of me. Good thing they are so worth it, and I do enjoy being pregnant for the most part.

Things about Pregnancy thus far:

My placenta is low lying and anterior. So basically it is a lot harder to feel this baby move or kick. Which is a total bummer!! I do feel it every once in a while and it makes my day. This baby doesn't kick or punch. It squirms. dances and stretches.  We had our ultrasound done and even the tech was laughing at her. She would hardly move! She would stretch and readjust herself and go right back to sleeping.

Ron felt the baby move a couple of weeks ago. He got lucky that day. Normally she stops the moment I try to show him. It made the whole thing even more real to him. It is always so fun to see his face light up when he feels it.

Pregnancy cravings have been salsa and chips, fresh fruit and dr. pepper.

Clearly I am showing, but again it is still touch and go. Probably cause I had a little extra pudge to cover the bump up  (stupid hypothyroid).

Grace goes around telling me and Ron that she has the baby in her belly. She is so cute, and hopefully she will do well when this baby comes.

Hayden is truly over the moon about it. He is so excited to have another baby at the house. He keeps telling me he is going to be the best big brother ever. He wants to help me do everything.

So far this pregnancy is flying by. Now I am 22 weeks, and due for another photo!! Crazy!!

We have gotten all of the nursery furniture in her room, and are now working on organizing and decorating it.  It is a very slow process since I have to be careful with what I do and how much I do.

I haven't officially announced it on here, but we did decide that were going to find out what we were having once we found out about the low lying placenta and the chance of a c section. It basically ruled in that if I do have a c section this will be our last baby unless we have some divine intervention come into play. Hayden was also having a VERY hard time at the idea of getting another sister instead of a brother.

So officially we are having A GIRL!! We were so shocked (but I will tell that story later on). Ron and I are so excited for another girl (even though we would be excited either way).

We have decided on a name already. Well to be honest we knew the name long before I was even pregnant. We have decided on the name Rose possibly Rosalie middle name Marie. We just love the idea of having a little Gracie and Rosie running around, and by we I mean Ron. Which is totally adorable at how giddy he is about the idea which makes me adore the name Rose. Also it was my great grandma's middle name. Both my girl's will be named after her.  I am leaning towards Rosalie or Rosilee (can't decide on spelling). It sounds more formal. I like it and it is a really old name just like Grace.

Life is great. We truly couldn't be happier about this little babe. We are all just so excited!! Even if there is a possible chance we will be spending Christmas in the Hospital.

12 weeks!

This pregnancy so far has been quite a bit harder than my last two. I am way sick... And by way sick I am meaning I have slowed down torunning to the toilet at least once a day if not twice instead of 5-6 times. Usually it hits me at night time and I can sleep it off, but sometimes it doesn't happen. Either way it is rough and I am ready to feel semi normal again. I am 12 weeks and clearly already showing! I felt the baby a day or so ago also!!!! It is always crazy to feel it again. I have to lay on my left said very still to feel it. If I do it feels like a small goldfish swimming in my abdomen. Such a crazy feeling. 

Next week I finally get to go in and see my midwife! I am so excited to meet and get to know her. Ron and I are both really happy about the decision we made for me to birth with a midwife, and still in the safety of a hospital. I just loved the idea of my primary care provider being their the whole time I am in labor and not just to "catch the baby."

So far pregnancy is going slow but I think it is cause first trimester always goes slow especially when sick. Good thing the end result is a cute bundle of joy!!!

Grace's Birth Story

It has taken me a month to get this blog put together. Goodness me. I forgot how your time is taken away from you with a new baby in the household. The last thing that I think about it writing on the blog. I know it needed to be done. So I finally did it!!! It has taken forever to do though.

Here it is Miss Gracie Face's birth story.  It is long. You can go ahead and skip it if you want. I am doing this for obvious reasons. So Grace knows her story and for journaling purposes. We all know people just like to look at the pictures anyways.

First let it be known that Little Miss Grace is the first baby in my family to come after her due date... Not long after only 57 minutes, but still. She broke a long standing record of early babies in our family. We are talking after 10 babes or more being born she is the only one that was late.

I was so done being pregnant. I hate saying that because I am so lucky to have the opportunity to be pregnant, but let's be honest every lady gets to a point where she is  done. I chalk it up to the fact that we just want to hold that sweet baby already!!

The last 2 weeks or so before she came had been really stormy. For some reason stormy plus being pregnant can cause said pregnant lady to go into labor. Nope not me. It just made Grace drop so low that I was in agony. Seriously there were a few nights I cried to Ron because my ligaments and such hurt so bad. Top of the fact that she dropped back to the position of cutting off my kidney again. I hurt badly, and I noticed another infection was starting.

Induction had been brought up twice already. Mainly because my doctor was going out of town twice. One time for just a weekend, and another time for 10 days just after my due date. He also mentioned it because I had told him that I was starting to contract a lot and be in a lot of pain, but I was showing no progress at all!

The Monday before I delivered was a hard day. It had been stormy and rainy all weekend long. So I was in a lot of pain, and I hadn't slept hardly at all. I had just been holding out for my Doctor's appointment that afternoon. I wasn't expecting much because in the last month I had made 1/2 cm progress. That was it. I mentioned to Ron that morning that if induction was offered I was taking it. It had been against everything I was prepping for, but I had no desire to re-live the hydronephrosis in my kidneys again.

Sure enough I went to the doctor and he checked me. I was the exact same as my last appointment. Frustration and disappointment is an understatement. I was a 2 and 70% effaced and a -1 station. That was not what I wanted to hear.

Induction did get mentioned, and I took it. My doctor told me unfortunately they wouldn't be able to take me that night or the next morning because of Pioneer day.  He did however, tell me that they were able to take me Tuesday night.  He told me to get home and get ready for the our stay, and to make sure I got plenty of rest and ate good meals.

Monday was a pretty crazy night. We debated on if we should have taken the induction. We debated mostly cause I had been preparing diligently for a natural birth, and we basically knew that if pitocin was involved an epidural was going to be as well. I may or may not have cried cause I hadn't progressed, and the fact that my ideal labor was kinda being bagged.

Tuesday came, and I would have though that day was going to drag but it didn't. I had so much to get done even though I was all packed and ready for the hospital. I scrubbed the house down, made sure everything was ready for baby girl, went grocery shopping, and tried to squeeze in a nap to make sure I was good and rested for what I thought would be a really long night of labor. Mostly I was trying to spend one last day with my sweet boy alone.  We went out for dinner and just tried focus all of our attention on him.

Since I was being induced at night; my sweet sister Stephanie and her husband Chris came and stayed with Hayden.

 Ron and I left for the Hospital at 7 pm.  We got all settled in, the monitors hooked up, and we were just waiting for the nurse to come in and hook up the pitocin when I felt a sharp pain in my tummy. I knew it was a contraction, but didn't think anything of it because it felt like all the other contractions that I had been having for weeks, and weren't doing anything. Then about 5 minutes later I felt another one... Then five minutes later I felt another one. Again I wasn't thinking anything of it because like I said, been there done that. Ron was watching them on the monitor though, and he told me that they were getting closer together and stronger.

The nurse came in, looked at the feed, and said the same thing to us. She new I was in labor, but because I had come into be induced they were going hook up the pitocin anyway just to get it really going.

I was planning yeah Planning on going naturally.  I was handling the pitocin pretty well. Yeah it hurt a lot, but I knew once I got to walking around and in the tub I would be just fine. I was in the middle of an extremely painful contraction when we hear this really loud POOF!!!!!! over the heart monitor. Ron was all sorts of confused. I knew exactly what happened. I felt a huge pop and a gush! My water had broke. Seriously that is the weirdest feeling on the planet by the way. I was so glad it had broke though. All that pressure was gone, and so was the contraction.

Everything changed after my water broke. Now not only was I on pitocin Naturally I didn't have a bag of water to sorta of cushion the blows of the contractions either. It was rough!!!! I couldn't get in the tub anymore because of the risk of infection. The bed was absolutely not an option. I had to just walk around, bounce on the ball, or sway back and forth,or my favorite and this sounds weird but just sitting on the toilet felt amazing. That's all I wanted to do was just sit on the toilet and lean up against ron.

The nurse finally came in and said I had to get monitored. So to the birthing ball I went. I started noticing that the more pain I was in the shakier I became. Ron said I became pretty pale, and I noticed I was hot and light headed. Yeah those for me are all signs of passing out. I told Ron that I didn't think I could sit up anymore, but I didn't want to lay down either. That is when we opted for the epidural. Ron was worried and had no clue what to do for me, and I just didn't want to risk passing out and hurting the baby.

Once we opted for the epidural the Nurse checked me and I was at a 4+, and then the anesthesiologist  came right in to get things started. Seriously it was all I could do to not move with that blasted needle. I was in so much pain. I would flinch a little bit, and the doctor would say "DON'T MOVE!!!" I couldn't sit still I wanted to scream I hurt so bad. He finally got the epidural in, and I noticed that the pain hadn't gone away it had just moved straight to my butt... TMI? Probably but its true. So I told the nurse it didn't feel right. I still felt every contraction coming. She told me to wait and be patient that it would subside. I got as comfortable as I could, and started watching Gilmore Girls to take my mind of it.

 The nurse came back in and asked if it has helped, and I told her no. I still felt it really strongly. She told me that she was going to go back and get the doctor to see what was up. They checked the Tube and everything, and said it looked fine. Finally the doctor decided to double the dose to help ease it. (Side Note) I must have a weird reaction to epidurals because I always have to get a strong dose! It completely wore off with Hayden, and I went naturally for the last 3 hours or so. I felt a bit better after the second dose, but I could still feel those dang contractions. Finally the nurse checked me and said "Oh my word you are an 8+!" No wonder I was in  so much freaking pain!!!!  i went from a 4 to an 8 in just under an hour! This baby wanted out, and out now!!! She started pulling out the baby warmer and getting everything ready, and then afterwards she left to do some paperwork.

We were in our room alone maybe 20-30 minutes, and  I felt one big contraction and told Ron that I was pretty sure the baby was coming. 

We called the nurse, and she checked me again. She said I was still and eight but the baby had dropped quite a bit. She decided to empty my bladder (don't we just love catheters?), and see if that might have been the problem. She was just finishing up and telling me she would be back in 20 mintues when I told her to check me again. She did, and couldn't believe that I was complete. She looked at Ron and said "We are having a baby."

It was 12:45 when she told us that. She quickly called the doctor. It was funny to hear her on this end. "Hi this is Joni from Labor and Delivery. I am with your patient Maggie Garner, and I am just calling to tell you she is complete and at a +1. We need you to get down here as fast as you can."

It was 12:50 when Ron looked at me and said "Hey sweetheart if you have this baby in 8 minutes here and hayden will have the same birth time except one is am and the other is pm." I just laughed and said yeah right. The nurse agreed with me.

The Doctor came in soon after, and checked me. Sure enough I was complete but this time I was a 3+. Meaning the baby was going to be crowning any second.  I got all prepped for delivery which didn't take long, and then the doctor looked at me and said next contraction you need to push.

Apparantly this time around my body new exactly what it was doing. I pushed once and the doctor looked up and said "You're good at this." I pushed twice and everyone was telling me she had a ton of hair. I pushed a third time, and the doctor told me that in next contraction I would be holding my baby.

So many thing were running through my mind. First I couldn't believe how casual this was. Yeah I was having a baby and we were all just talking like it was no big deal. Second holy cow I am going to be a mom of 2 kids!!!  Third: Why on Earth was Hayden's delivery so difficult! This one was cake!

Second Contraction came I pushed twice more and and the most perfect baby girl was placed on my chest.  First thing out of my mouth was..."THAT WAS EASY! Ron if all of our kids are this easy we might just have 6!"

After only 4.5 hours of labor compared to Hayden's 30+ hours, Grace Emma made it here at 12:57 am on July 25, 2012, weighing in at 7 pounds 14 ounces and 20 inches long.  She arrived  only 7 minutes after Ron told me Hayden and her would have the same birth TIME. I pushed not even 5 minutes and a total of 5 times. Dream Delivery. Dream Everything. It was love at first sight.

I can't believe the spirit that fills the room when a child is born. It is absolutely incredible. The only thing I really remember at that moment was my little family. It felt so right and so complete. I have a caring and loving husband who would do anything for me and his children, a happy little boy who just loves life, and a sweet precious little girl who was healthy, safe and finally in my arms. Life is beyond perfect.

Welcome to earth Grace Emma!! We love you so much little miss!

14 more weeks!

96 days and counting! I feel fabulous apart from some really painful round ligament! Who knew it got worse with more pregnancies! I didn't!
I did our baby inventory yesterday. I need to go to our storage unit and go through Hayden's things to find any gender neutral onsies and such.  I am shocked that even though we had a baby how much stuff we need! Some things on the list...

Double Stroller
Swing (the one we had was basically broken when we got it. Our Bro in Law had to jimmy rig it)
Lots of Clothes still
Baby Bedding (I am making this.)

These are just a few things. I feel like time is slowly slipping out of my hands. Especially since I have a 3 for sure trips coming up next month and the following and possibly a 4th in July! EEK! 

Had my glucose test done yesterday. They haven't gotten the results yet. If anything I think I am anemic.

The best news is we have a name for our precious baby girl! We are just decided which we want as the first and which we want as the middle.

24 Weeks

Still going strong. I can't say this enough, but honestly this pregnancy has been a breeze. Again apart from kidney issues. I definitely have days where I want to die because of them, but I will take that over having to puke every day clear until I have to deliver!

She is definitely more laid back than Hayden was. She freaks me out! I have had a couple of days where I feel her once maybe twice in a day. Hayden by this point was swimming all over my stomach and I could see it. She loves to kick my bladder! This is fine unless my bladder is full.

I started doing Pre-Natal Yoga. I can't rave about this enough. I sleep so much better at night. She gets very relaxed as do I. I started it in prepping for natural birth. Yep your read it right! I am refusing an epidural this time around. I have really been doing my homework with it and started training. Yoga is just one step I am taking to learning how to breathe and meditate. I am also looking into Reflexology and Essential Oils. I have also ordered 3 books on the subject, and been trying to work out at least 3 days a week to help aid in the labor and recovery process.

We got Hayden sleeping in the big boy bed at night time. The first night was a night mare but when it was his idea we didn't have any issues! Praise Alla!  He has been a champ with the few transitions we have started.

We started re-doing the nursery. Got a bigger toy shelf, as well as the big boy bed. I am in the processing of finding/making matching bedding for her crib. I am excited! Its going to be so neutral but very very cute!

We still don't have a name. I am very picky. I have some that I love but they are so popular now that I am not wanting to use them. SUCKY!

I am starting to get anxious with nesting. I am realizing how much cleaning and organizing I have to do, but don't have the energy most days to do it. Well when I do I am busy chasing 2 toddlers around, and that's enough to beat it out of me.

Thats been life in a nutshell. We are excited and very anxious for her arrival. I am a little freaked out with having a newborn again, but I am so excited for the newborn baby smell and the cuddles!

St. George and other things

Since Ron was up to his eye balls in midterm tests, papers and grading, Hayden and I decided to venture down south a week early before spring break. We had the most lovely time in St. George. Let me tell you. It was much needed break from everyday life. We sure missed our Husband/ daddy, but that 70 degree weather was pure heaven. Ron later joined us the following Friday where he too, enjoyed the beautiful sunshine.

Here are some of the things we did.

#1 thing we always do is go visit Grandpa at work. Surprisingly there are lots of things for little boys to enjoy at IFA. Honestly who wouldn't enjoy it. Its a little kids, and a big kids play store. We love visiting grandpa at work.

 Hayden Rode the "Tractor" as he calls them with grandpa. It really is a fork lift, but Hayden thinks anything that doesn't look like the typical car is a tractor. He bawled and bawled when my dad turned it on. Apparently he likes toy tractors better than the real thing.

 Grandpa's work in the Spring time is especially fun. They bring in shipments of bunnies and chicks for Easter. Grandpa spoils Hayden and lets him hold them or pet them. Something that is generally not allowed to the general public.

 We also "enjoyed" the St. George Carousel. Hayden bawled and bawled when I put him on the horse. He wanted nothing to do with it. So we sat on the lame benches instead. He loved it after that. In fact he cried when we took him off. By the way... Hayden's face is priceless in the photo above. I love it.

 So we let him ride one last time with "Damma"

 We enjoyed the park one day with Miki, her puppy Rocky and Baby Kyler. It was fun and Hayden loved being outside and playing fetch with Rocky.

 I love this photo... He is getting much to big. It makes me sad.

 I babysat Mr. Kyler. I love him... He is the sweetest happiest baby.

 This girl got herself hitched. We have been through everything together. Going on 20 years of being besties. So glad I got to share in her wedding day. So excited to start this phase of our friendship together. Who knew this day would come when we are both married, and starting our own families.

 Left To Right: Brooklyn, Megan, Chantel, and Me

Left to Right: Me, Chantel, Miki, and Meg

A girl is lucky to have one best friend to giggle, share secrets with, and grow up with.

I got triple lucky to have 3 besties. I honestly don't know what I would have done with out these girls growing up and now. I just love them to death!

 Love this girl... We have been through so much together... Including house plant shopping.  Sounds dull, but nothing is ever dull when you have no baby and you are with your best friend.  I lose track of time  when I am with her.

  Here is Terry.  We did awesome picking it out...

 Of course a trip to the horses is always a must.

 Pushing wheel barrows and playing fetch  with the dogs all while getting dirt in your shoes... He is such a boy. I love it

  Rode horses with Grandpa and thought it was the coolest thing. He would yell "HOOOOOWRSE"  and giggle. What a little stinker.

Hayden is starting to talk A TON!! He blows me away. He is starting to do some 2-3 word sentences and just say lots of words. He is really starting to make Ron and I laugh our heads off.

Haydenisms:

So one night while Ron and I went on a triple date Hayden decided he wanted to call grandpa on my mom's phone.

He called my dad and he answered. My dad was so nice to listen to is garble gibberish, but when hayden wants to talk on the phone he will chat your ear off. Eventually my dad hung up. hahaha

Hayden knows how to use smart phones. It's funny and pretty ridiculous. He called  again (all by himself mind you).

My dad again answered being the nice grandpa he is, but then he hung up. Hayden seriously is a chatter box.

Hayden called again, but this time my dad let it go to voice mail. Hayden got so mad and huffy. He yelled in his growly Hayden voice:

"DAMMPA!!! YOU LISTEN TO ME!"

I laughed myself sick over this story. He is so funny to watch talk on the phone.

Other things I love that he says:

When he says goodbye to someone he says: See ya latow goos (see ya later guys)
When something happens abruptly for instance a song changes on a cd or something.. Hayden gets this shocked look on his face throws his arms in the air and says "What Happened!"

Needless to say... We love our little boy, and we love this stage!

Baby Girl Update:

 Forgot to get a 20 week photo... bummer. Oh well. Definitely growing! 128 days to go! All is well!

Terrible picture of both of us... But Hayden saw the camera and he ran in the picture and yelled"CHEESE!" So now I love it. Even if I look like a complete goober.
