Wordless Wednesday

2 weeks

Miss Aly is already 2 weeks old! We went to the Dr today and got another good report ;)
weight: 8pds 4oz (she is really starting to fill out)
Depending on what time we put you down at night, you normally get up around 1 and 3:30 to eat. You eat anywhere between 2.5 oz and 4 oz. You are such a sweet laid back baby just like Ella was! You are still sleeping most of the day, but I can tell you are becoming more alert at certain times.
You belly button fell off last night and Ella thought it was the funniest thing this morning. She kept asking me where it went, lol

Here are some of my favorite new born pics that Mika Beth took. She is such a talented photographer!!!
I can't wait to see some of the family pictures ;)

My 3 loves! Life can't get much better than this

First night home( Aly, you slept SO good! I only had to get up with you twice ;)


First time meeting Cooper and Hadley ;)


First time your sister showed any interest in you! Don't worry though, she is finally coming around!


We are so lucky to have such a good baby. I swear this child sleeps 23 hrs a day! Only time she wakes up is to eat:)
Poor baby woke up this morning with a clogged tear duct. Her poor eye was matted shut when she woke up. Hopefully it will clear up soon.

Wordless Wednesday (few more favorites from the hospital)

Dr visit

Aly had her first Dr's visit today. When we left the hospital she weighed 7pds and 7oz.
Today she weighed 7 pds and 9 oz!
Dr said she is looking great :)
Here are some more of my favorite pics from the hospital

Aly's story

Josh and I checked into the hospital Tuesday morning at 5:30. When they checked me at the hospital I was dilated to a 2 and half and was about 80% thinned out. The nurse started me on a really low dose of potocin and then I got my epidural.
I'm pretty sure I was driving the nurses crazy over this! The pain never got to bad before the epidural (aka, Gods miracle drug) I just started to get uncomfortable. Dr Woods came in around 8:15 to break my water and then we just waited for on Miss Aly :)
Thank you Mary Kate for capturing all of these precious moments while we waited!


Ella was really unsure of what was going on. She would not get near me that whole day. I don't think she liked seeing me hooked up to all the machines. Brax on the other hand did great!!














All morning the nurses kept having me flip from side to side bc Aly's heart rate would drop a little after each contraction. This made me a so nervous but I knew they were watching it and that I was in the best hands. Finally a little before 2 I was ready to push. I had Josh, my mom, and Mary Kate stay in the room to see Miss Aly make her arrival. I pushed for about 45 min and she was born at 2:44 pm weighing 7 pds 11oz and 21 inches long. JUST BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!









I have so many more pics to post so get ready ;)
I want to thank all our friends and family for all the prayers, calls, text, and gifts!
I also want to thank Nana and TT for all your help with Brax and Ella while we were in the hospital. You guys are the best!!
