So Busy.

Wow it's been a little bit since I have last blogged, the Holidays are always busy for us especially with a little one now! So I will quickly update on what we have been doing (sorry for the picture overload)!

Tyler and I have been trying to spend all our time with Easton basically, because we can't believe how fast he is growing up! He is now 2 months old and is still so handsome! We had his 2 month appointment yesterday and he is doing great! He now weighs 11 lbs. and is about 23 inches long.

As you can see he really enjoys his bottle...

...and absolutely HATES when it is taken away! LOL!

He also loves his sleep, and is VERY good at it! Which we are very thankful for so that we can get our sleep too!

He likes his baths, but hates when they are over because he gets cold when we take him out and doesn't like lotion on him!

Really though we couldn't ask for a better baby, he is so easy and really so fun to hang out with!!

As for Tyler he is just working very hard right now especially through the Holidays, but rushes home so he can spend all afternoon with us! And I am just enjoying my last couple of weeks at home with my boys until I have to go back to work :( . I'm only going back part time, like 18 hours but still it will be very hard!

Sorry it's short and sweet...but I wish every one a very Merry Christmas!!

Model Material ;)

So we just recently got our announcement pictures of Easton back and this one was our absolute favorite! My sister and brother-in-law did an AMAZING job!!! He wasn't very happy about the photo shoot, but you wouldn't be able to tell at all by this photo! He was such a trooper!

A little update as well, everything has been going great with all of us! Easton is just growing up too fast! He is now almost 6 weeks and weighs 10 lbs! Good healthy boy!! Ty and I are great too, just trying to spend as much time with Easton because we don't want to miss a thing!

Also I hope everyone had a Happy Thanksgiving! I am so thankful for my family, relatives and friends!

So HAPPY To Be Home!

We finally have our little guy home from the hospital, and it is such a relief! Those 2 weeks were really hard on all of us and now we can just try to forget about it! He has been such a blessing in our lives and is such a good baby! He had his 2 week appt. today (2 weeks already! It really does go by so fast!) and everything is going great! He is now 21 and 1/2 inches long and weighs 8 pounds 12 ounces...growing boy! I'm just so happy he is healthy!!

A Little Bit Of Both...

The Good:
Our beautiful bundle of joy Easton was born October 21st at 1:23 P.M. He weighed 8 pounds 5 ounces and was 20 and a half inches long! Big strong boy! The delivery was smooth and was only 40 min! We couldn't have been happier with the outcome, he stole our hearts the minute we saw him!!!
The Not So Good:
A couple of hours after he was born our little man started making funny grunting sounds, we thought it was just him trying to relieve gas, but turned out that he wasn't getting enough oxygen, and was starting to turn purple. So to monitor him better they immediately took him down to the NICU to start running tests on him. Turns out he has Group B Strep and RDS (Respiratory Distress Syndrome) and has been in the hospital since. He has been improving daily and is almost off the oxygen and breathing on his own! I'm so glad he was a full term baby because he is being super strong about all of this and will hopefully be home with us sometime late next week! It's really hard for Tyler and I to go through this because it is almost the exact same thing I experienced with myself while I was pregnant, but he is so little it's really heart breaking to see him hooked up to all those machines and IVs! It's even harder that we were discharged from the hospital yesterday and he still has to stay there, but they are very good at letting us visit whenever we want!

I just want to thank all of those who have given us their love, support, and prayers! Everyday seems to be looking up! I have lots of new born pics I will post when I have more time, most our time right now is devoted to visiting our little guy!

Quick...

That's right this is just a quick update on me and NO baby yet...I am now at 39 weeks and have about 9 days until my inducement date if I'm ready by then, but hopefully before! Keep your fingers crossed!!! Other then that I am feeling ok besides the fact that I can't breath very good because I am so stuffed up, I'm getting less and less sleep, more contractions, and I feel like I'm getting bigger by the moment! I keep thinking how that is possible because I already feel like a blimp, but I just keep telling myself to stay positive because the outcome is going to be AMAZING and I can't wait to have him here! And I know Tyler is just as excited!

Easton Update...

Yes we have officially decided on the name Easton Tyler, for those of you who haven't heard, we love it and love him so so much too! We are so excited for the day that we will be able to hold him and see what he looks like! In the mean time we are just finishing decorating his room and going to doctor appt. weekly now. Yes, today was the last time we go every 2 weeks and we start going every week...we were also able to set a date on when I can be induced. I'm able to do this because of all the problems I've had with the kidney infections. It's not much sooner then my official due date (Oct. 17th), but it's still something to look forward to! At the same time though I'm trying really hard not to get my hopes up because if I don't dialate enough on my own by the inducement date then I just have to wait. Other then that everything is going great, he's sounding great, moving regularly, and remains head down and hopefully stays that way till it's time!

Like I said we haven't yet completely finished his room so I haven't posted pics of it, but I did just finish this cute name decoration and was pretty happy with the outcome. I don't think of myself as a very crafty person so when I do something crafty I'm proud of myself!

Too cute to pass up.

What was originally thought to be a brief outing at Baby's R Us for shower ideas with Ty, my Mom, and Dad, turned out to be about a 2 hour shopping spree. I was able to register for some things and give ideas of what we were still needing. Once again just like registering for our wedding shower I had way too much fun with the registry gun! lol! I'm surprised I made it that long, I'm the type of person that has to be in the mood to shop, and lately (being pregnant and all) I'm just never in that mood. And I definitely know that Ty and my Dad aren't big on shopping either, but they were good sports about it! My mom on the other hand, she is the shopping Queen! She is always good to have around when it comes to shopping though because she doesn't miss a thing. I had to laugh a few times because she would pick something up I had put on the registry list and say, "Grandma needs to be the first to give him this!" I'm so thankful for my parents and all their love and support with this pregnancy!

After listening to Ty and my Dad discussing on where we should go eat for about the third time, I kinda had to push my Mom along so we could get going. Right when we were about to get in line to check out my Mom found a little Halloween display. First she saw the cutest little booties, they made me laugh how little and sweet they were. Then she saw this....

All I did was look at Ty and he said, " Yes, you can get it." Little did he know I was going to anyways, it just helps to have his approval! Just kidding babe! I know it will probably be too big, but I can't wait to see him in it!

My bump, my bump, my lovely BABY BUMP...

LOL! Forgive me I thought I was being creative on the title, even though it is pretty silly! But thats ok I guess because I still feel pretty silly posting a picture of my big old belly! I did get a lot of requests though, so here it is......

And yes it is only my mid-section because I just don't enjoy face pictures anymore, not only am I puffing out in the center but I seem to be doing it everywhere! ha! I like to consider it a more swollen version of Alli! I just got done watching Juno (for the second time) with Tyler and that was a quote from it. It is a good movie, and easy to relate to the funny pregnant lines now that I am actually pregnant, except for the fact that I'm not 16...thank heavens! But it really got me thinking about about all the emotions I'm feeling, for one I'm super excited and also I'm starting to get a little more nervous about getting things ready, the delivery, and just overall being a good mom!

Only a little over 2 more months to go!!!

XY!!

Hooray! Tyler and I found out last week that we are having a boy, and we couldn't be more excited! Now we can start decorating a room and narrowing down names! As for me I am still trying to get used to being pregnant, and all the emotions that come along with it! Ha ha! Sometimes I wonder what Tyler is thinking when all of a sudden I have an outburst! But besides the emotional part I have felt pretty good, I don't really get sick, as long as I eat. So I'm thankful, because it could be a lot worse! I am also having a hard time with gaining the weight, I know it happens, but it's hard to look at all my 'normal' clothes in the closet and to see really cute clothes when I'm out shopping and know that I can't fit into any of them! But I'm getting more and more used to it now. And I definitely know that it will be totally worth it when our little babe is here with us!
