2 Months Old!

Yay! I am two months!!

I can't believe my little man is two months old. Where is the time going? Ethan had his two month checkup today. We were lucky enough that Bailyn was able to come with us. At Ethan's appt today, he weighed 12lbs 14oz. His height was 23 3/4 inches long and head was 15 3/4 inches. Once again all the nurses and his doctor raved about him. They all loved his hair. He did have to have some shots but he did very well. Here are a few pictures from this past month.

Weekend Getaway!

To celebrate the 4th of July, we decided to get away. It was my first trip away since we moved to Arizona. With Bailyn having 4 days off, we decided to go to the Grand Canyon. First it was nice to have Bailyn off for a few days. He rarely gets days off so it was very nice. This was our first getaway just the three of us. It still sounds weird to say. We dropped Ava off at Petsmart and off we went. Thank goodness Ethan is a good car rider. It was a several hour drive from where we live. We made it to the Grand Canyon. It was very crowded and hot so we didn't stay too long.

One Month & Happy Father's Day!

Well, first I want to wish Bailyn a happy first Father's Day. You are such an amazing father. I love you so much. Second, Happy Father's Day to my dad. I am so happy to have such a great dad!!

As of June 18, Ethan is one month old. I can't believe how fast the time has gone! People are telling me it will go even faster. Ethan is doing very well. The doctor's say he is perfect. They love when he visits. Yesterday, we picked up Bailyn's mom from the airport. He slept the whole way to and from and into the evening. I was a little worried he wouldn't sleep during the night but he did.

Ethan's First Week

I can't believe Ethan has been here one whole week! It just seems like yesterday he was born. Ethan was released from the hospital on Friday and doing much better. No doctor or nurse could really tell us what was the problem. One nurse just said he wanted more attention. But I am happy to have him home. Bailyn goes back to work tomorrow. I will miss him dearly since he has been so helpful this past week. Thankfully, my mom is still here. She keeps asking me when should she leave. I keep telling her in 17 years!!! I don't think my dad would like that. Here are a few pictures from the first week...

Introducing Ethan Anderson

Sunday was a very long day. I will not go into all the details. But the induction process started on Sunday, May 17th at 8 a.m. Ethan didn't arrive until Monday, May 18th at 12:54 a.m. But he was worth every second sometimes even pain second. He weighed 7.5 lbs and was 20 inches long. The nurses have fallen in love with him They love his hair. They say they have never seen a baby with so much hair and it be so blond. He looks a lot like Bailyn. But at least he has my lips.

Ethan has had a few set backs. Right now, he is at a children's hospital. He wasn't eating at all. If he did eat even the smallest amount, he would throw it up. So doctor's decided the best treatment was to move him. Doctor's have ran tests and everything is coming back normal. He has began eating a little and keeping it down. Today, nurses will increase the amount of formula to see if he can keep that down. We are crossing our fingers he can. He is the love of our lives. We are truely blessed.

Scheduled Induction

Well, this little guy is being very stubborn. I really can't say much, today is my actual due date but I was secretly hoping he would be here by now. So now, we've scheduled an induction. His birthday will be May 17th. I am still crossing my fingers he will be here between now and Sunday, but it doesn't look like it.

Here is my official last picture of me at 40 weeks. I am very happy that I've made it this far. I look pretty tired don't I?

Two More Weeks

I thought I would post pictures this week of me at 38 weeks and then way back at 8 weeks pregnant. I can't believe how fast time has gone by.

8 weeks..................................................... 38 weeks

I can't believe we will be meeting this little guy in a few short weeks (give or take). We picked up my mom from the airport on Saturday. It is really nice to have her here. She'll be staying until after the baby is born. With Bailyn working long hours, it's nice to have someone here incase anything should happen.
