Graham

Sweet Graham has been an "easy" baby his whole life. He nurses well, sleeps decently as long as he's close to me, and rarely cries. He is quickly soothed, loves being drug around to all of Paisley's adventures, and smiles at everyone.

He just seems like one of those little people who genuinely likes his life. And it's such a welcome change from my first newborn experience that nearly wrecked my marriage and sent me to the crazy house. Seriously. She was BAD... :)

But I took a picture of my angel today and caught the looks of an ornery boy peeking out from behind that sweet baby face. Uh-oh. We may be in trouble....

    Hehe SO cute! Wait a minute..maybe I blocked out your posts of Paisley's tough infancy? I dont remember that. But omg, you give me hope. Sam's infancy has been pretty freakin tough haha So I'm hoping things level out as she gets bigger like Paisley :)

    What a cutie!!!!!

    I think Paisley and Avery are quite alike from how you describe her.

    Avery is funny and wonderful, but
    she is crazy sassy
    she loves to push our buttons
    she is a terrible sleeper
    she is non stop, constant go

    As for the active thing, people say oh in the morning I bring my baby in to bed with me and she snuggles for a half hour. Not my kid. She will stand up and try to do no more monkeys jumping on the bed.

    I am glad you were blessed with an easy baby, I hope he stays that way!!!!

Meet Our Little Miracle, Paisley Kate

The post I have been waiting 2 years to write is finally here and I can't really believe it. On Saturday, I woke up at 8:30 a.m. with BAD contractions. By the 2nd one, I knew I was in "real" labor. They were SO different than the braxton-hicks. I got out of bed and decided that I'd take a bath, until water ran down both legs. The pain after that got pretty unbearable immediately and I was having contractions every 2 1/2 to 3 minutes. So, I called Aaron at work to tell him it was "the big day". He decided I was kidding until I nearly leapt through the phone to wring his neck. :) We got to the hospital an hour later and I was dilated to a 4 and having very active contractions. They quickly got me moved to an L&D room. I got my epidural ( AMAZING - we'll talk about this in its own post soon) at a 6 and then my doctor broke my water. (Apparently at home, it had just leaked a pocket of fluid). After he broke my water, labor started picking up ...

The Resurrection

 So here we are.  It's now a blog graveyard.  The followers have long since moved on and infertility is something that I've somewhat put in the past (only considering I don't want any more kids).  So why am I here and writing again?  What's the purpose?   This was my safe place.  It was where I came when everything seemed much too hard and I needed to feel comfort.  I wanted to express myself in a venue that others would reassure me and even understand me.  I still love and have always loved this blog.  It guided me during some of the hardest years of my life, dealing with infertility and miscarriage. And you know... I guess it will help me again now.  Because life is freaking TOUGH.  You know the phrase "I've went through Hell and back"?  Yeah, I feel that in my soul now.  I could have a blowout in the middle lane of the highway during rush hour traffic, manage to pull over my car on the side and call for roadsi...

Santa Claus

I miss blogging.  It's just that I'm trying to minimalize the busy-ness in my life right now because the holidays always make me overwhelmed.  Like I get a bit crazy.  All the gift-giving, shopping, parties, family, friends, drama, food, etc.  Sounds fun to most people but I just do better with simple.   And that word hasn't described my life since giving birth 3 years ago.  Sooo, I go missing from time to time, but I keep up with everyone else's blogs!   This was my mom's attempt at a Christmas card with the kids.  It looks like they were decently enjoying it but the truth is both kids were having fits for absolutely no reason.  She used it anyways. My ornery little stud-muffin playing on the stairs. Graham having a VERY rare fit.  I had to capture the moment. Sweet sibling time in pajamas.  Times like this one melt my heart and make me feel good about my decision to have two kids. Graham was tota...
