Some sweet pictures of Myleigh at 3 weeks old

Myleigh's 2 week check up.

 2 weeks old

WOW how time flies I can't believe that it has already been 2 weeks since Myleigh has stolen our hearts. She has been such a wonderful baby hardly ever cries but loves to be held. She has already started to try and hold her head up.
She had her 2 week check up and she now weighs 7 pds 9 oz. So she gained 7 oz in 2 weeks which is good considering that her pediatrician said babies usually loose weight, then by their 2 week check up they are back to there birth weight, so I must be producing enough milk for her. She also got a poke on her foot which she did not like, she cried which was sad to watch.
I am thankful that she is happy and healthy and growing.

Myleigh Ann has arrived

Myleigh arrived on April 4 at 7:59 a.m. she weighed 7 pds 2 ounces and 20 inches long. We are so thankful that she is happy and healthy. She took nursing very well when they brought her to me, so I was happy about that I prefer nursing to bottle feeding if I can, so I was excited about that. She is so beautiful she looks like Kenzie when she was born. She is such a precious miracle as of all my children are.

Right after she came out

Was not a fan of her first bath.

The kids just love her and are happy that she is out of mommy's tummy they can't get enough of her.

Braxton super excited!!!

Can't stop looking at there sister

Big sister once again!!!

Then there was 5 kids that is!!

Even daddy is happy


Loves her Myleigh so much

So far she has been an easy going baby, hardly cries, she usually wakes up about 2 times during the night. She does love to be held, which makes it hard sometimes when I am trying to do something around the house, or even to try and sneak in a quick shower can be difficult.
It is true what they say about babies, all Myleigh does right now is eat, sleeps and poops lol. But thankfully I have such wonderful kids who help out a lot, and such a wonderful husband who has been nothing but awesome during everything, cleaning, cooking, changing diapers. I am at the perfect place with so many miracle's and blessing in my life.

Our precious bundle of Joy

36 weeks

I had my 36 week check up and I gained a pound I am now 140 pds. We got to hear the babies heart beat and it was 135 bpm. So she is growing good and sounding good which is what we like to hear. They checked my cervix and She is head down and I am dilated at 1 centimeter. She is getting ready to make her appearance but she must wait a few more weeks. I am also down to once a week visits :).

37 weeks came fast but I gained another pound and I am now at 141 pounds. So far I have gained 32 pds. I am where I was at with Kenzie by the time I had her so I guess we will see how much I gain with this pregnancy. They checked her heart and it was at 165 and I am still dilated at 1 centimeter. We shall see what next week brings.

My last check up was 38 weeks since I am having a C-Section on April 4th. I gained 2 more pounds and I am weighing in at 143 pounds. That means I have gained 34 pds, I surpassed my weight gain between my 2 other kids. So hopefully the weight comes off fast. They checked my cervix it is still at a 1. We went over what was going to happen during the C-Section and the post care. I am a little nervous about having another C-Section. But I am ready for this little one to come out of me and welcome her to the world.

34 weeks

I am 34 weeks and feeling it. Today was my Dr appointment and it went as usual. They weighed me and I am 139 pounds. I have gained 2 pounds in 2 weeks, so far I have gained 30 pounds this pregnancy. We got to listen to the babies heart beat again and it was at 155 bpm when she was moving and when she stopped moving it was around 135.

It's weird sometimes I still get morning sickness. Which I am so over and I am so over being hungry all the time, nothing sounds good anymore but I no I have to eat. I am also excited to be able to sleep in any position I want. I can only sleep on my left side which makes for an uncomfortable night considering my left side goes numb and crampy after a few hours.

It's defiantly worth it all but I know when I am able to see her and hold her it will be amazing and know those 9 months is worth the uncomfortableness, sickness and lack of sleep. Which yes I know that the lack of sleep will continue and I will become a zombie mom but we are excited for her appearance.

I am also kind of nervous I don't know if it is the fact of having 3 kids and only 2 hands. I wasn't nervous before with the first 2, so I don't no quite what it is but I better get over it quick because she won't wait around for me.

We aren't that old are we?

The other day we were driving in the car and started talking about things we have now a days like laptops, cellphones etc, that we didn't have or couldn't afford when we were growing up. Kenzie jumped in and started asking us questions for example, what happens if you go to the store and didn't have a cell phone, how can you call people. We told her that you would have to wait until you get home to use your home phone. Then she asked what is a home phone, then we explained what it was. But she couldn't grasp the thought that you couldn't take it with you when you leave the house.

Then she asked us if we had paper back then, all we could do was laugh I didn't think we were that old. But we explained to her that we had paper back then and we weren't born in the stone age lol. Kids must be really spoiled these day's just like my parent's told us growing up that we were spoiled and are lucky for what we have.

Time's have defiantly changed from when I was growing up technology has expanded and opened a new world of communication, and it is only going to go up from here.

Just thought I would share I thought it was hilarious that Kenzie thought we didn't have paper growing up!!!

32 weeks

Today I hit my 32 weeks of pregnancy and can definitely feel it, having a hard time getting a good nights sleep. Can barley bend over, luckily I have such sweet kids that look out for me and helps out as much as they can.

I had another feto echo cause last time they found a cyst on her brain and wanted a check up. Thankfully they found that it was gone and she is growing healthy, she actually weighs 4 pds and 6oz so far. We are so happy that it is gone waiting 2 months to find out if it has resolved was really hard. Lots of prayers and anxiety in those 2 months. So we are thankful that it disappeared, and she is doing good. She also is head down but we aren't ready for her yet she still needs some growing.

It was fun seeing her that big in my tummy usually you only get to see them when you find out what you are having. Boy can I tell you that they are squished in there. We saw her face and it was all smashed up snuggling her hand. We were even able to see her open and shut her mouth like she was giving kisses.

Later that day I had my OB appt. They took my weight and I am weighing in at 137 pds. So far this pregnancy I have gained 28 pds. I will defiantly surpass Braxton pregnancy at gaining 29 pds.

Again they checked the babies heart beat and it was 147. And measured my stomach every thing looks good. I will back in 2 weeks for another check up.
