Close up!


We are not sure who she looks like yet, but we were really surprised at her dark hair. Ryan and I were both toe heads. I got to say that no picture does her justice. You just got to see her in person! She is so cute!

Presley Noel


Here is my Beautiful new daughter Presley Noel. She weighed in at 7lbs 6oz and only 20inches long. A lot smaller than her big sister. She also has really dark hair and her eyes are already a darker blue. So they may go brown like mine. She is so precious and we are so overjoyed to have her in our family.
Ryan won the name game. He would not give in to my favorite name of Addalyn. So she is Presley and I love her no matter what her name is. :)
I am so happy to be a mommy again. She is just wonderful. She is a good nurser who made my milk come in on night two of her birth. We are so excited to get to know her personality and see how she changes. We love her so much! I really love the soft side of Ryan babies bring out in him. He turns to mush and it is so adorable!

Me at 38 Weeks


I realized today I haven't gotten any shots lately of my enormous belly. So I decided with the recent talk of my Doctor moving my date back to the 27th of January, that I better get on that! Yep, Doctor Oldroyd said he is feeling up to it, so yesterday they called me and told me he wants to do my c-section on Jan 27th when I am 39 weeks along!!!! I am so excited and so grateful for prayers! This has been such a long journey to get this little girl here. We began this process way back in December 2009. We have had many ups and downs, but they are all worth it. Yes, she still doesn't have a name, but we are ready for her to come join our family!

Christmas Morning

Here are just a couple shots of Christmas morning. The baby got a "little sister" shirt and Brynlee got a "Big sister" shirt and her favorite was her new guitar she wanted so badly!

Weigh in your guess!

So Brynlee was three days over due and weighed in at 8pounds 11ounces. What are your guesses on what Baby number 2 will be. I of course feel huge!

Also tell me what you think of a few names. We are still debating and do not know what it will be. We can't agree. So don't be mean if you hate a name, but tell me which you like the best.

Addalyn, Brielle, Hartley, Presley, Mckenna, Ashlyn, Jordyn, Riley, Sophie

Bummer

So, I have tons I need to catch up on. We had a great Thanksgiving in Vegas and a wonderful Christmas with Family. I will have to post pictures later.
The bummer news is that with a c-section your second birth is always a week early and planned. The Doc has been telling me this whole time either the 27 or 28 of January will be the big day. But when I went in the end of December they told me the Doc was having knee surgery and would be out all of January and that I am scheduled for Feb. 2!! That is one day before my due date! So if I happen to go into labor, I get who ever is on call for him that day. One of the Doc's I know because I grew up by him. So no I really don't want him to do the surgery. The biggest problem is that neither Doctors will know any of my history and know if things look good or bad compared to my surgery I had last February. It is pretty upsetting for a woman this far along in the game! They are hoping I don't go into labor because they do want to see inside me to compare. I never did go into labor with Brynlee, so who knows if I will this time.
I really don't want to go into labor either, because then it does become more of an emergency c-section and more rushed than the other way of being planned. I know all women go through the craziness of not knowing exactly when it will happen, but I went eight months thinking I knew the exact date only to have it taken away!
Plus can I say how extremely exhausted I am of trying to come up with a name that Ryan and I both like. I have my fave and he has his. The problem is we do not like each others names. Maybe we need the extra time to agree on one! Anyway, now I got that off my chest!
On a high note, we got the baby crib bedding and set up the crib finally so I feel a little more prepared for our little girl coming, and Brynlee is so excited to become a big sister. She keeps asking me how much longer before she comes. I love when she comes and kisses my belly and say hi to her sister.
