Davis Kenneth Arthur!

First things first, our card reader fell into Moo hands so that is why I have not updated the blog. I have been unable to get the pictures from the card to my computer. I finally bought a new card reader yesterday....so here goes!

Davis is here! Oddly enough, my water broke AGAIN. Since the odds are only 1 in 10, and my water broke with Macie, I did not think it would happen again. It was a fairly normal Tuesday afternoon and we were all outside playing. I was taking Macie in to prepare her dinner and GUSH...

After taking a shower, eating dinner, putting Moo to sleep and packing my bag...we finally got to the hopsital at around 8:30pm. They induced me at around 10:30pm and I received my epidural shortly after. My labor progressed pretty quickly and after only five minutes of pushing, Davis was in my arms. He was born at 3:32am on April 29, 2009. A day I will never forget!

He is the sweetest little man....just see for yourself...

Mommy and her little man! I was so happy to finally meet him!

Mommy, Daddy and Davis. :)

Night night...

Our furniture is FINALLY here!! FIVE weeks late...but I guess it's better late than never, right? I worked on his room most of today to start getting it ready. Here is the crib.....

Poor Macie. She is wondering "what is up with this extra crib in the house". She looks at me like "Mommy, I only need one crib, okay?" - but it was awfully cute when she walked in the room, saw the crib and said "night night". Never a dull moment these days....

The baby swing makes a comeback...

The swing has been packed up since Macie was about 8 months old. So, we decided to take it out and put it back together today so that Macie would get used to seeing it in the house and not think it was her new toy. Yeah, that didn't go so well....

The swing comes out...

Macie spots it and decided to check it out...we think she is just going to look at it and push it from side to side. So we walk out of the room to finish hanging some pictures in Davis' room.

We come back...this is what we find. The Moo has climbed into the swing and is swaying herself from side to side, having the time of her life. No worries. The swing goes up to 25 pounds and Macie is just under 23 pounds.

I am guessing that she is not ready to give up the swing to her little brother. Every time I tried to take her out of it, she said "NO!" - she is already torturing the little man and he isn't even here yet!

I am 39 weeks pregnant today. Due in exactly one week (May 1st). I went to the doctor and I am 3cm dialated, up from 2cm last week. They stripped my membranes today, which could help start labor ....or could not. If it works, it usually works within 24 to 48 hours...so we'll see.

I will keep you all posted! :)

Red neck pool!

Yes, we have a community pool.
Yes, we have quite a few adorable bathing suites.
And, yes, we have a white trash baby and a red neck pool!

I was at Target and I thought the $5.00 pool would entertain Macie while I sat on my pregnant butt so I bought it. She was so excited about it that we could barely get it blown up and full of water. So we just stripped her down to her diaper and let her run wild. She LOVED it!

Jim is wrapped around her little finger. I see it now...when she doesn't get her way with me...who do you think she'll be running to?

38 Weeks!

No news, really. I was 2cm dialated last Friday and I go back to the doctor tomorrow. I feel like my belly may have dropped but I can't really tell. This would be the joy of being five feet tall, I suppose!

This was 38 weeks...and the day my water broke with Moo...

This is 38 weeks with the little man....and water still in tact! :)

We will keep everyone posted and, of course, we will post pictures!

Date night!

Jim and I had a wedding to go to last night and Aunt Lauren came over to babysit Macie. We took some pictures in our dressy threads. :)

What happens with daddy, stays with daddy!

What happens with daddy stays with daddy...unless mommy finds evidence on the camera!!!! Look at this Moo....feet up on the high chair tray. She is such a lady!!!

What, dad? I like digging in the trash can. There is nothing wrong with that, rigth? I swear, mom lets me do it. I promise.

Besides, I just wanted to make sure mom got everything out of this Gymboree bag.

*Thanks Macie, you got me busted for shopping!!!*
