She started smiling again after we got her all dry and lotioned up  I didn't pose her for this, its just how she sleeps :)

August 25 2010 I'm sorry if this doesn't make sense... When I write when i'm emotional it doesn't come out right. Sorry All.  Fear   is an  emotional  response to a perceived threat. It is a basic survival mechanism occurring in response to a specific  stimulus , such as  pain  or the threat of danger. Phobia  is an irrational, intense and persistent  fear  of certain situations, activities, things, animals, or people. Today I went to the dentist for a cleaning. It was very hard for me to do especially alone, but I knew I needed to go because I have a cavity. I brush my teeth twice a day and floss as often as I can, because I a weirdo and really enjoy flossing he he he.  2 weeks ago I noticed I had a cavity I called and made and appointment. I told the receptionist I am not a normal patient. I have had a lot of trauma and I just wanted to warn you. She was very sweet and told me not to worry. I hun...

On Friday Dec. 24th at her doctors visit Peyton weighed 8.5 lbs which puts her in the 75th percentile. Most babies loose weight after birth, but not this girl. She measured 22.5 inc. which put her in the 99th percentile!!! She is off the charts, I know she doesn't get it from me it must be from Mike. Mike said "It's amazing how much I love her after 7 days, I can't imagine my life with out her." Mike took these photos at our house, pretty impressive I must say. He has a hidden talent! A hint of green eyes, but mostly blue. She is partially smiling, I love it when she smiles!  P looks like she is picking her nose, but if you look close she isn't. I still think it's funny and cute.  This is how most of the pictures turned out :) I'm glad we got a few amazing ones though. * She has an attitude, if I don't feed her the second she decides she is hungry she thinks she is going to die and lets everyone know! * She has different cries, I like the ...

5:40 AM the phone rings. It's the hospital calling to say they are ready and can induce me. I went and woke up Mike who actually got some sleep that night. At about 8:00 we were all checked in and ready to go. I was dilated to a 3 and 70% effaced. They put the IV in and I almost passed out. I got really nauseous and white. She kept poking me and and poking me finally she got it in... It was horrible, then they started the Pitosin. I waited to get the epidural because I wanted to feel some real contractions. They actually weren't bad at all I would have gone longer, but they were going to break my water and I wanted to be numb for that. I got the epidural around 11:45 and the doctor broke my water at 12:00 I was dilated to a 5. They put the Pitosin up to a 20 which is its max. We were progressing great and guessed that she would be here around 3. Then a turn for the worst... About 5 nurses came running into the room. They put an oxygen mask on m...

Monday was my first day not working in a very long time. The last few days have been hard because I’m just playing the waiting game. I cleaned our WHOLE house on Monday. Nesting? I think so!  I couldn’t sleep all night. Mike and I went to the Dr. Tuesday morning. He said he would induce me if I was a 10 on the Bishops Score, last week I was a 9.  He checked me and we calculated it and he said I was around an 8. He said really if you’re not a 10 then there is a high risk of Cesarean. So of course we will wait, I'm not against C-Sections since I was told once that I might have one, but I'm not going to take any risks. I have another Dr.  appointment on Friday for another check up. I am now 192lbs no thanks to egg nog…. I bought some yesterday around noon and as of right now it’s gone. It was only half a gallon, but still! I guess that means I’m off to the gym.  I have A LOT of Braxton Hicks through out the day, but I finally have had a few real contractions! OUCH!...

I have a bunch of random pictures that I haven't blogged about so here is one big post for all of them.  Temple Square! We usually go on the 19th since that is a special day for us, but we hope to be in the hospital. :)  The Girls at Chase and Tillies reception Thanksgiving Dinner, the table looked so beautiful, way to go MOM!
