A Name...Finally!!!

Ok So finally after being alive for almost three days we have picked a name! Avery. Im so glad. lol The poor thing had no name, she must have been confused. =) She is sleeping better now thank goodness. My mom came down this weekend. It was such a relief to have her here. I miss her and my family alot and so when they visit its just nice. And of course she always helps out so much and that is always great. I love help! Cords family was down too. All the men in his family went to the ASU game saturday night and had a blast cause it was a great game! We won 31 to 20 after everyone thought we couldnt handle their offense! What now!? It was good. The women folk hung out at Jennifer's it was fun! We ate ribs and chatted and played with babies! It was fun! And we got Avery a little costume for Halloween. I wanted to dress her as a monkey but I am too lazy to make one and i cant find one anywhere! But it would be soo cute! I am sad I cant go to ryan and megans reception. They did it on a weekday so we cant go because we have some large tests and I just had a baby lol. Oh well, the pumpkin carving looked like a ton of fun and i want some of the candy! Preferrably paydays or almond joys ok!? and Kit kats lol and tootsie rolls.

Our Baby!!!!

Our Little Family



Well folks it's done! We had our baby! She was born on Tuesday in the evening. They induced me, and the birthing part was very quick and the labor too. lol She weighs 6lbs 1oz. She is very cute though. They let us go after 24 hours, she is perfectly healthy and I am fine other than some pain and flu-like symptoms. The first night home was fun lol. She had some trouble going "poopie" for the first few times and was not too happy. I think i got maybe 2 hours sleep sitting in our living room chair. lol She has slept well today though! Ive been trying to wake her but it isnt working so well. Oh well we will see how tonight goes! lol Thanks for all of your congrats!

Mike took these pictures! They turned out soo good!

Dilated

Well, as some of you know as of monday I am dilated at 4-5cm and 80% effaced. At first I thought this meant I was hours or days away from labor, but apparently you can walk around for weeks like this. My doctor told me to stay close to home but still go about as normal. lol yeah like I can stay CLOSE to home with work and what-not. Well, I am still pregnant with 2 weeks to go until D-day. My co-worker Jen wants me to hang on as long as possible since we are losing the other employee and still have not found a replacement. I may go today, though. I have been having contractions for a litle while and I am trying to measure them so it may be the day! Part of me wants to just have it done now! I want to see what she looks like! But then again, I still want days with just Cord and I ya know? Where we don't have a baby. But I am sooo excited to have her out and I know she will come when it's time lol. We still dont have everything up. Cord got the dresser together and I have all her clothes washed and put away. Our hospital bags are packed and the carseat is waiting to go into the car. So we are ALMOST set lol. House still needs to be cleaned. Im so lazy!


Me at 8 months preggo!
