A Name and a Blessing

Last Sunday, was a very special day for our little family. We blessed our sweet little Ryan. Jene gave Ryan a beautiful blessing!! There was such a sweet spirit present and Jene and I were overwhelmed by it as well as the love and support from close friends. Neither Jene or I had family able to come to town for the blessing so it was so wonderful to share our special day with some of our close friends here in Georgia that we consider family.
Following the blessing at church we had our "Georgia family" over for a Hot Chocolate Bar! (Yes, I got this genius idea from pinterest). I made it a very simple bar but I think it was a hit for both adults and kids!! It's seriously the best hot chocolate in the world!! Add some peppermint and whip cream and YUM!!

Unfortunately, we didn't ask anyone to take a picture of us as a whole family nor did we take any pictures with our friends. Bummer, huh?! I don't know what we were thinking...well, obviously, we weren't thinking! Enjoy the shots we did get...which are not great and you can tell that I need more sleep but oh well!!

3 Boys and a Girl

The past month we have obviously been adjusting from being a family of 3 to a family of 4! Its been a pretty smooth transition for the most part which has surprised me. Although, we did have a lot of help early on when Jene's parents came down and then my parents flew in and stayed awhile. It was great to have so much help!!

The past few weeks it's just been Jene and I and it's been pretty good. Don't get me wrong, we are exhausted but we are loving it! Ryan seems to be a tad bit colicky but he is 100% better than Eric was with his colic, so it's no biggie for us. He sleeps so much better than Eric ever did at this age...Eric rarely slept at all and Ryan has gone as long as 8 hours straight. So even though he's a bit fussier than a normal baby, he's still our calm child for the moment. =)

Oh and you know how I was worried about loving a 2nd little boy? Well, that thought was melted away the second he came out of me. It's so different having a baby the second time around. You know what to expect, you are better prepared and your heart seems to be more open and ready. The love was instant instead of that shocking first child and feelings of "he's mine?" and "what do I do with this baby now?"

Also, I was worried about splitting my time between the two boys...well, I actually think having to split my time makes my one on one time with Eric and Ryan more special. When it was just Eric, I would take a lot of our snuggles and things for granted because I was with him and only him all the time. Now, I have to nurse Ryan a lot and so I feel like poor little Eric gets the shaft but when Ryan is asleep and I snuggle up with Eric just the two of us, I really cherish it. I find myself going out of my way to sit down with Eric and read books, play games or watch a show instead of cleaning house, resting or other busy work. I love that having 2 kids is making me a better mom and not the other way around!

I'm so very blessed and grateful for these sweet boys in my life!! Sure, I'd love to add a little girl sometime but for now, I couldn't be more satisfied and blissful with my boys!!

at 6:44pm

Weighing in at 7 lbs 13 oz and 20.5 " long

We are absolutely and totally in love with our new precious bundle and Eric couldn't be more excited to have his baby brother here!

In honor of Ryan being one week old today, I thought I'd finally put some time in at the computer to write out the "birth story". (I've had a lot of requests since I mentioned that there was "no time" for an epidural)...Oh and it's long...sorry!

Last Wednesday, I went in for my normal OB check up. I, of course, told her that I was so uncomfortable and so ready to have this baby. I'm sure she hears the same thing from every other woman in the world that is close to their due date but I felt it was worth a shot at trying to get some sympathy from her. I had even planned on trying to turn on the "water works" if necessary but to my surprise she said after checking me, "Well, you are dilated to a 3 and you are actually past the 39 week mark so, I'll go ahead and strip your membranes." She continued to tell me that sometimes it doesn't work so I should try not to get my hopes up, yada yada....I tuned this part out because I was so excited!! I had my membranes stripped with Eric and he was born 7 hours later, so I knew this would work. I left the office in great spirits and called Jene to warn him that I might be calling him to come home in the next couple of hours.

When I got home, I started to do some last minute cleaning and cooking (yes, this was the day I made a HUGE batch of caramel corn and posted about it on FB.) and packing an overnight bag for Eric to stay with some friends. I was feeling very crampy but nothing too intense and definitely not having regular contractions for most of the morning. Around 12:30, I started to contract. Again, nothing super painful at all and not too close together but I called Jene and told him we'd probably have to go to the hospital soon and he should come home now. When Jene got home, I was still not hurting really bad like I remember hurting with Eric before going to the hospital. So, we laid on the couch watching a movie with Eric all while timing contractions at the same time. This part of the day was super bittersweet to me. I knew it was the last time it would be just the 3 of us and I wanted to soak it all in and in a way never let that moment go. I couldn't take my eyes off of Eric and my heart was filled with love for my little boy that didn't seem to be so little any more....precious moments, **sigh**.... Anyway, about an hour goes by and I'm having contractions about every 5 minutes, so we packed up the truck, dropped Eric off with friends and off to the hospital we went.

Once we got to the hospital, I was almost positive they were going to send us home. I could barely feel the contractions now and they seemed to be getting further apart. After a few minutes they pulled us back to a "triage" area of the maternity ward. Jene and I waited for about 20 minutes before anyone came to see us...meanwhile, my contractions were still barely noticeable and I was bracing myself to be totally embarrassed when they sent me home. Finally, a nurse came back and hooked me up to the machine to monitor the contractions and the baby's heart rate. The nurse is asking all sorts of ridiculous "routine" questions and at the same time she's really watching the monitors closely. I was confused and nervous because I wasn't really feeling much pain but apparently, I should've been by her reactions. After a little bit, the baby's heart started to drop a tad and she had me roll over on my left side. As soon as I did that, my water broke. Which was a new and different experience for me. Now, in my mind once someone's water has broke you would think things would become more urgent but apparently these nurses didn't think it was such a rush in my case. You'd think they'd rush me to a room and get my IV going but they are seriously taking their sweet time. Finally, I get back to a room because obviously, I'm going to have this baby sometime soon and the contractions hit me hard. I mean, really hard! I had told them I wanted an epidural from the beginning to make sure they knew to get my IV going etc...So, they finally get their rears in gear and after a nurse murders my veins trying to get my IV in (seriously, I should take a picture of the bruise. 6 days later and it still looks as black/blue as it did the day it happened) we finally get the IV drip up and going but by this point, I'm dying. I'm squeezing the heck out of Jene's hand, crying and shamelessly begging them for drugs. They told me they couldn't give me anything until I filled out some paperwork. Seriously?! I almost pulled a "Shirley McLaine" moment when I heard this. (if you don't know what a Shirley McLaine moment is, you are missing out). So, Jene filled them out for me and I literally scribbled my name near the line on the paper. They finally inject some drugs into my IV and it makes me really dizzy but it did take the edge off. At this point, they checked me and told me I was at a 6 and 90% effaced. I was totally relieved. I was only a 6 there was time for the IV drip to get into my system and I'd have my epidural and everything would be hunky dory. The nurses even told Jene that this was a good time for him to go down to the truck get the cameras and some dinner for himself. I gave Jene the, "it's ok, go ahead, I'll be fine" schpeal and so he left. Not even 2 minutes after Jene walked out that door, I was in so much pain, I involuntarily screamed. The nurse came in and checked me and said, "Oh, this baby is coming now!" I looked up at her with sheer terror on my face and pure panic in my voice and said, "No epidural?" She just looked at me dead serious and said, "No, this baby is coming now." This was my worst nightmare...no joke! I barely had time to register this before I realized Jene was gone. The next thing out of my mouth was, "My husbands not here!" I gave the nurse his cell number and she called him to come back up. After that, I started screaming again and I needed to push. I didn't want to push but I needed to, bad. There was no trying to hold baby in. The doctor finally came rushing in and was dressing to deliver my baby and I was already pushing him out. My body was spitting this baby out whether the doctor or myself were ready or not. Two nurses were trying to lift my legs in the stirrups while I was screaming...which was so bizarre to me. I mean, it was completely involuntary. From my perspective, I must have looked like a scene straight out of the Exorcist or something awful! I kept apologizing to the nurses and doctor for screaming because I truly wasn't meaning to. I'm sure the women in the rooms next door were freaking out. Anyway, three pushes later and he was out! I was completely shocked and amazed at how fast it was. They laid him on my stomach and I immediately grabbed his little hand and he wrapped his hand so tight around my finger, it was so sweet!

A minute later, guess who comes walking in the delivery room...Jene. He had missed the entire thing. He was so confused! He walked into a room with about 10 people in it and he saw the umbilical cord and was like, "Wait, where's the baby?" Then he saw that Ryan was laying on me and he was shocked. We both have mixed feelings about him missing the actual birth. On the one hand, I wish he would've been there just to tell me what it was like from his perspective and on the other hand, I'm glad he wasn't there because I was screaming and scared and I didn't want him to feel bad, helpless or to freak out. He feels the same way. When they saw how baffled Jene was the doctor and nurses said I went from a 6 to a 10 in two minutes. Is that even possible?! It made for a very speedy delivery which almost made the lack of epidural worth it...almost. From the time my water broke to Ryan laying on my tummy was a grand total of 1 hour. Ryan was just ready to make his grand entrance to the world and boy oh boy was it some entrance!

Halloween

Our Halloween Festivities this year started out with our ward's Trunk or Treat on Saturday night. We had a Chili Cook-Off with our local firemen there to judge it--all the Chili that I tried was delicious!! Of course, they had lots of carnival type games for the kids which Eric was actually old enough and interested enough to wait in line and play them. He was so good! Unfortunately, Jene was out decorating the bed of his trunk and had the camera with him, so I didn't get one picture of Eric playing any games. He was awesome at the bean bag toss! He stayed behind the "toddler line" and made 3 out of 4 tosses and even got one of the Young Women who was behind the board, smack in the face. Maybe we have a little pitcher or quarterback on our hands?! After we finished up all the games, it was time for the Trunk or Treat! Eric had no problem running from trunk to trunk saying, "Trick or Treat!" and then holding up his bucket to claim his reward. He didn't want to stop! So, I took him around once and then Jene took him around once...hehe!

On Halloween...we went to a local grocery store that had a free "Haunted Trail" for the kids and a cake walk. Eric loved every minute of this! He didn't get scared even a little bit going through the actual "Haunted Trail". He just wanted to do it all again. To top it off, he won a cake at the cake walk! Talk about awesome luck!! But seriously, like we need anymore sugar at our house right now.

Now of course, we took Eric trick or treating! I walked with Jene and Eric for a little bit but then went back to the house to man the candy bowl. =) Jene said Eric ran the entire time!! They were gone forever it seemed like and Eric brought home some serious loot. I think Eric liked handing out the candy as much as he liked trick or treating, truth be told. We let him stay up and do that until we ran out of candy. Then he totally crashed! What a fun and exciting day for our little Superman!!

Happy Early Birthday Eric!

Saturday, the 22nd, we threw Eric an early 3rd Birthday Party. His real birthday isn't until November 7th but with my due date being November 8th and baby could technically come at anytime, we decided to be able to give Eric a proper birthday, we needed to have it early.

He wanted a Spongebob Squarepants themed party. (I know there is a lot of controversy over Spongebob and most of the kids that were at the party aren't allowed to watch it but frankly, I don't care and don't get me started on this topic because I think there are a lot of other cartoons that are just as bad if not way worse anyway...lets not continue on this....)

So, back to the party....we kept it very low key this year due to one really obvious pregnant reason. =) First, we served them up a lunch of "sea-nut butter and jellyfish jelly" sandwiches, "coral bits and tarter sauce" (carrots and ranch), "kelp chips" (potato chips), "fish food" (goldfish crackers) and "sea spray" (capri suns). Then, we played the Spongebob version of "pin the tail on the donkey" which was pin the jellyfish in Spongebob's net. Then we took them outside to do one of Spongebob's favorite things...blow bubbles. Then it was time for cake but instead of a traditional cake, I made "krabby patties" and "kelp fries" like from the Krusty Krab in the show. This is what I was most proud of! I got the idea from Bakerella.com...she's the inventor of the cake pops and has the cutest cupcake ideas. I won't explain more about them, I'll just put up the pictures. Then, it was time for presents and everyone left full and happy. =)

Eric loved his party and asked to have another one the next day and was sad when he woke up on Monday and all the decorations had been taken down...kinda sad! I think the whole thing was a success and that all the kids had a good time but to be honest I'm so glad it's over!! One less thing to worry about. I'm sad we didn't get better pictures but we got a lot of video so that makes up for it, I guess. I really wish I had gotten one of all the kids together but with a bunch of 3/4 year olds, I don't think it would've worked out anyway!

Eric's New Room

**This post may be totally boring to most of you...I do apologize but I wanted to document some of our hard work because it was a pain!! **

Last week was Cuh-razy around our house! Jene and I had procrastinated doing anything to prep for baby #2's arrival and then we realized, it's October and baby could come anytime...AH! So, it was crunch time to get everything moved, organized, painted, deep cleaned, so on and so forth.

Eric's new room... The room we moved Eric into was our old study/office so we had to move our computer, printer, bookshelves etc...upstairs to our guest room. I wasn't too happy with this arrangement but it's the only option we really had but now that it's done...I like it! It actually fits in the space without overwhelming the guest room. YAY! So, after we moved all furniture and reorganized all of our things in the study, we (mostly Jene) painted Eric's new room. But the color we chose was awful!! I don't know if they mixed it wrong at Home Depot or what but when in dried it looked like a pale gray-lavender when it was suppose to be a nice neutral taupe. So, I picked another color with a warm base and we re-painted (I actually helped a lot this time around). It looks so much better! Hallelujah!! Oh and we went with a neutral because eventually the boys will share a room and we will move the study back down to it's original place and I didn't want to have to repaint again. Anyway, the next day after the paint was all dry, I spent the entire day moving all of Eric's toys and clothes over to his new closet and organized the entire room plus, I put together his new bookcase. Whew! Tired, yet? I wasn't at the time...I was nesting like a mad woman! Now, I'm left with absolutely NO energy. Barely enough to write this post.

Of course, these are out of order and I'm too lazy to fix it. =)

These first pictures are of Eric's first night in his new "big boy" bed. He thinks it's "giant"! Yes, that white bookcase, I put together all by myself...not too hard but still, go me!

This is the first paint job, plus the two new samples I went and picked out after the other one turned out horrible. We went with the brown on the left. We love it. I don't know if you can tell from this pic how awful that first color was but trust me, it was bad.

Of course, Eric had to join in on the "fun" that is painting. Such a cute picture!!

Show Time

On the weekends our local movie theater shows a free kid's movie in the morning. We thought this was a good time to "test" Eric to see if he's ready to sit through a movie at a movie theater. I mean the worst that could happen is that he throws a fit and we leave, completely guilt free because the movie and popcorn didn't cost us a dime. On the plus side, they were showing the movie Rio which we know Eric already really likes so we thought this would be a slam dunk! Now, it wasn't a slam dunk but we didn't strike out either. Eric was so excited and so good for the first half of the movie. In the middle he got a little antsy and loud so Jene took him out for a potty break and when they came back, Eric was much better although still a little wiggle worm. All in all, I think it was a success!!

It is always so much fun taking Eric to do and see new things! I love watching his little face light up with excitement or surprise or anything!! I think I watched more of Eric and his facial expressions while he sat quietly in his seat than I watched of the actual movie. He seemed so grown up and so big!

We didn't take our camera, (dang it!) but Jene did snap a few blurry shots with his phone....

This is the face Eric makes when you tell him to say "Cheese" and "smile"...

33 Weeks

I had seriously decided not to take anymore maternity shots of myself and if by chance I did, just for our little family's sake, I was definitely NOT going to post any on the internet for all to see but it's amazing what a new pair of shoes can do for your pregnant self esteem!! Maybe I'm in "la-la land" on this so just indulge me right now because I was feeling pretty good about myself last night and it's one of the only times this entire pregnancy that I've felt somewhat attractive. Now, I know I still have a little bit to go and I am fully aware that I will only get bigger (ugh) but just let me bask in my pregnant glow for now. =) Without further ado, here I am at 33 weeks....

**now that I actually posted this...I'm having second thoughts....but I tell ya, last night I felt great about it!**

A Child's Prayer

At our house, it's always Eric's turn to say the prayer. He refuses to let Jene or I say it, which is fine by us because it's good for him to keep learning and it's cute that he wants to say the prayer too...it gives you that "happy/proud parental moment". =)

Anyway, I can't resist in sharing this little gem of a prayer that Eric said at dinner a couple of nights ago....(sorry there is no darling picture of Eric with his arms folded and his eyes squinted kinda shut, kinda open while saying this).

First of all, I start to help him and then instead of copying what I say Eric goes off and says this....

"Deewer Heavenly Father, thank dee for dis day. Thank dee that my Daddy is big and strong. Jesus Christ, amen." (oh and after he says amen, every time without fail, he claps and says "YAY!")

After we say amen and cheer, I look over at Jene and of course, he is just BEAMING from ear to ear. So cute!! Then after a moment or two of basking in this cute moment I thought, "hey, what about Mommy?!?" Couldn't he have added "Thank dee that my Mommy is beautiful?!" Oh well...Dream on Mommy...Dream on...

Mixed Emotions

I don't really know where to begin this post but today, I'm feeling very contemplative. Maybe it's all the rain we've had the past couple of days or maybe it's just hormones, who knows? But whatever it is, I thought I'd write it down because 1. my blog is like my journal and 2. I don't really write a lot of posts like this anymore. So here I go....

Lately, I've been thinking a lot about how life is going to be as a mother of two and as ready as I feel I am for our little family to expand and grow and as excited as I am to meet our new little man, I can't help but feel kind of sad and nervous about it too!

I'm sad because its been just the 3 of us for almost 3 years and I don't want our 3 Musketeer act to go away. We have our routines and things pretty much figured out (with the exception of potty training which we are dealing with now...that's a whole other post to come...). I just know our lives are going to be turned upside down for a bit when new baby comes and in a selfish way, I don't want that to happen!! I'm also sad that I have to share all of my time with Eric with someone else. Does this make sense or make me sound too selfish? Oh well, if it does, I don't care because that's how I feel.

Now, I'm nervous not only for obvious reasons about being a new Mommy again but how am I going to love this little guy as much as I love Eric?! If it were a baby girl, I might not feel so nervous about this but because it's another boy, I'm a little scared. I'm sure all of you other Moms out there with more than one child can understand this...I've heard from many women that they went through this same thought process. They all assure me that as soon as we meet our new baby boy, we will be over the moon and totally shocked at how much we love him right away. I'm pretty sure this is what the case will be but I can't help but worry because I haven't been there. This is yet another exciting chapter in our lives and I'm anxiously waiting to experience Motherhood all over again!

What Characters!

I have blogged a lot this month but we've just had a really busy month full of "characters" around our house!!

Here are some pictures of our favorite "Characters..."

Uncle Mikie and his 4 girl's came to visit. There are 4 kids in the bed, so we are missing one in this picture.

This is Ayla and Eric. We rode our bikes to the pool. (yes, WE, as in my 7month prego body on a bike)

We had chicken fights...

Olivia, Gabby, Ayla and Jene acting silly in the pool!

Oh and this is Eric floating down the lazy river by himself!! This is HUGE for him. Usually he's attached to your hip in the water but now he just wants to go by himself. Makes the pool so much more enjoyable!
Last but not least, we got to meet a real character...Spongebob Squarepants! Eric LOVES him. I couldn't get him to look at the camera, he was so enthralled in meeting the real thing! Look at that big hug!

Anyway, as you can see we've been busy. We've had family in town every weekend this month, but one. (Sadly, I didn't take one picture while Aunt Sarah, Uncle Crockett and Aunt Tasha were in town.) We love it when we have visitors!! It's been a lot of fun but also so tiring for this pregnant gal. (by the way only 11 more weeks to go...).

Best Adventure Ever!

I neglected to post this earlier....better late than never....

As of Friday August 12, 2011

Jene and I have been on the best adventure of our lives for 6 years!

(Technically we've been together for 7 1/2 years but who's counting, right?)

So, here's to us!!

Happy Anniversary Jene!

I can't imagine being on this wild journey with anyone else.

I LOVE YOU!

Oh and by the way this is random but Jene said to me the other day, "Can you believe that Eric has been with us for almost half of our marriage?" Is that not a crazy thought or what?

Home Stretch

We're down to what they call the "Home Stretch" of Pregnancy...the 3rd Trimester! Hallelujah! I'm so excited! I've been wanting this baby out of me for about 2 months now and not because the pregnancy has been too rough or anything, I think I'm just ready. I'm ready to meet our new little boy, ready to have labor over and done with, ready to introduce Eric to his little brother, ready for down time, ready to get back into shape, ready for it all really. Even though I'm ready, I know our house is another story. We still have to move our study upstairs so that we can move Eric into his new room and get it all organized and put together and then I have to get all of our baby stuff out of the attic and get the nursery done. It shouldn't be a big deal, mostly a lot of folding and putting things away but lots to do none the less. That's our project for the next month because I don't want to wait any longer.

Enjoy the only pictures I will post of my lovely pregnant body 27 weeks and counting. I can handle 13 more right?!

Oh, I had to throw in a picture of Eric. This is him when you ask him to say, "Cheese!"

And I had to throw in both of my cute boys....soon to have 3 of them around!

Lil' Stinker

Oh, Eric...you cute little stinker! Lately, Daddy and I feel like you are 2 going on 16. You have started to have a bit of an attitude from sheer defiance to being fiercely independent. You definitely take after your Mother when it comes to being super stubborn. Not a trait, I admire in myself or you. Although, Daddy can be stubborn too so maybe you got a double dose from both of us? Whatever the case may be, heaven help us!! You seem to have many sides or personalities these days. One minute you are the sweetest, cuddliest most affectionate little guy giving hugs and kisses and being so polite and the next minute you are a holy terror throwing fits and ripping pillows off the couch (which is something I despise and after picking up the pillows 15 times I finally just give up and don't try again until you are fast asleep in bed)! A lot of the time you are the most curious, studious and serious little sponge that absorbs everything and asks a million questions. Your favorite question right now is "Why?" (this is one of my favorite sides of you)! Daddy and I love every side of you because they make you well...YOU! Although, we could probably do without too much of the holy terror side...work with us on that one, will ya?

Community Bath

Don't let the title of my post frighten you! This community bath does not include myself, Jene or any other random people or strangers. It does include 3 cute little water bugs though. =)

I vaguely remember taking baths like this with my siblings and even my cousins but I know they happened a lot more than I remember because I've seen the old family photos to prove it. I'm sure every family has at least one picture like this!

(I'm a little sad this is the best pic and it's a little foggy looking but the in the other pics there were too many little slips of the goods to be appropriate)

Anna, Daniel and Eric

All cleaned up and in their Spongebob PJs, which was not planned whatsoever but it was great for another cute cousin photo op!

4th of July

We've lived in Georgia for 3 years now and had never actually stayed in town for the 4th. Not knowing what people do around here, it was kind of hard to make plans and decide what to do, plus, we had just got home from the beach the day before the holiday so I had to scramble to make some last minute plans for our family but it turned out to be a fun day even though it was pretty low key.

We started the day early and went to the Peachtree City Parade with friends. It wasn't really a parade in my opinion, just a bunch of golf carts and cars with advertisements and 4th decor but I'm a Provo snob and was raised with only the best Festivities. :) (really people, nothing beats the 4th of July in Provo, Utah. I always get homesick on this holiday!!) Now with that said, they do throw out a ton of candy and things for the kids and Eric had a blast and we did too with our friends so that's all that matters.

After the parade we hit up, where else but Chick Fil A?! It's a staple in our diets! After we enjoyed lunch with friends and let Eric run around, we headed home to put Eric down for a nap so that he could stay up late without being cranky for fireworks. We didn't have any BBQ plans with friends unfortunately, (due to my lack of planning ahead of time) but Jene put on one heck of BBQ just for us! We enjoyed a quiet, yummy dinner together and had friends over for s'mores and sparklers after. We were going to go to the big PTC Fireworks show but the weather was so yucky and rainy that we stayed home. Plus, Eric wasn't a big fan of the sparklers and started to get scared when we could hear fireworks start around our neighborhood. Hmmm...wonder why he's scared of them?! Haha...if you don't know what I'm talking about read my post below. Anyway, so that was our day! Low key, but still really fun with good friends!! We hope you all had a great 4th too!!

I didn't take many pictures and the ones I did take aren't great...but still, I've got something to show from our day!

Sparklers!

Eric loved waving his flag!
Eric and his new best buddy Moe.
Lots of people!
The kiddos...I was not suppose to be in the pics.
