Aubriana Has Arrived!!!

She is finally here! Born November 27th at 4:46 pm. She weighed 7 lbs 3 ounces and 19 1/2 inches long. I don't know how I got so lucky, but it all progressed very fast. I was induced at 5 am, they broke my water at 10 am and I was dilated to a 10 by 3 pm. The nurse came in and had me start pushing at about 4:05 pm. It happened very very fast! I of course was way overwhelmed with emotions. They put her up on my belly when she came out and I started bawling! :) She did have the cord wrapped around her neck once and I pushed her out with her hand coming out with her shoulder. She was very alert from the minute she came out. She was crying until she heard her dads voice and instantly looked over at him. She is so so so sweet. Very alert and already a good nurser. We are very lucky first time parents!

Little Leify will be here to meet his new cousin! She can't wait! :)

Hang in there, there are tons of pictures!

Her Daddy and Aunt Dana!!!

Takes So Little To Please!

So! Long awaited washer and dryer is now located in our laundry closet! Yeah! No more carrying heavy baskets of dirty clothes to the laundry and paying $1.25 in quarters for one wash.

It was like Christmas yesterday putting these in there. It was also quite the ordeal. Tim had to drill a 4" hole through the back of the closet to the outside for the heater vent. It was a little nerve racking but a complete success. The hubby knows what he's doing. I also had to stick my pregnancy swollen arm through the side of the wall and the dryer to plug it in. I was not giving up and Tim couldn't stop laughing at the faces I was pulling. I had some laundry to do after all! When we were finally finished, Tim went to watch some TV and I sat and watched the washer do its first load. It was fantastic! These will be nice to have with a baby on the way!

Sleepy Minnie

While we were away this past weekend, we had to leave Minnie at a dog boarding place. Tim wouldn't even come with me to take her there cause he thought she would get more upset. Anyway, I took her and I almost starting crying when I had to turn around and leave her. She was so confused and all the dogs were barking at her!

When I went to pick her up on Monday morning, she was so upset. She was whimpering and barking at me. It was so sad. It stinks that we can't take her with us on the plane. Anyway, I got her home and she has been sleepy ever since. Today is no exception. She was a little cold too, so she had to have her sweater on. I really think with all this sleeping she is doing that she really had a good time playing with all the other dogs. Don't you think she has a hard life? haha!

Can't resist sharing! He is too adorable!

Reality Is Sinking In...

Uncle Tim and baby Leify!

We just got back from seeing the newest addition to the family! My sister-in-law Lurlyn and her husband had their baby boy blessed on Sunday. It was so fun to fly out there (even though I wasn't suppose to) to be apart of it. Tim could not get over how soon he is going to be a dad and be holding his own little baby in his arms. Its becoming a reality! He's been counting down the days since the month of November creeped up.

Little Leify is such a sweet baby and Lurlyn is a natural at being a mother! She makes it look easy and I know its not! :) I have the pre-baby jitters and million and one questions but I'm sure I'll figure it out. If not, I have Tim and all his crazy ideas! LOL!
