Lil' E and Doble Announce the Birth of Razy

Lil' E and Doble are pleased to announce the birth of their new baby sister Razy. The boys love their little sister to death. Here they are giving their first kisses to their new baby.

THE STORY

So let me tell you about the day she was born. D.J. and I went in for the amnio at 7:20am on Monday September 24th. If the amnio results showed that her lungs were developed we would come back the next day for the c-section. I had had an amnio before, but I was still pretty nervous. I had nothing to worry about and felt kind of silly when the whole thing was over because it didn't hurt at all. Maybe just a little cramping which was due to the needle going not only through my uterus but through the placenta as well. The doctor got his sample which included a little blood from the placenta, but that wouldn't be a problem. They put me on the monitors just to track contractions for awhile. A little while later the nurse came back in to check the monitor and I had had a good contraction and during the time Razy's heart rate was lost. She told the doctor about it and they decided to watch a little while more. About an hour later the doctor came in saying that one of the tests came back saying her lungs were developed, but the other couldn't be done because the sample had the blood from the placenta in it. However, he decided that since her lungs were good to go that we might as well do the c-section a day early. Dang it for me I had eaten at 6:30am and had to wait 8 hours before doing the surgery. So we were scheduled for 2:00pm unless she had another drop in her heart rate. Well 2:00 came and we were bumped because they had had some Emergencies that went before us. However at 6:30pm they wheeled me back to start the surgery.

Here is D.J. during the wait. He got a bit bored. It was a loooooooong day!

Back to the story. So D.J. got in his scurbs and I was brought into the O.R. They started the spinal. They tried, and tried, and tried again to get it to go. On the 3rd try I had a weird sensation shoot through my left leg...oops wrong spot. On the 4th try they got it. However, I would show the affects later on (big old bruise). Well D.J. came in and he could tell something was the matter. With Doble's delivery I only felt pressure so I thought I knew what to expect. Nope not the case. The spinal hadn't totally made it up to my chest by the time they started and I was feeling more than just pressure. After a rough while.. I have no idea how long, Razy was crying away. They brought her over to me for a few minutes before she and Jason left to give her a bath. What seemed like forever, but was about an hour and 45 minutes I was stitched back up and monitored before I was able to see my new little girl. However, when I saw her the pain had subsided (for a bit) and I was in love all over again.

Here she is....Our little angel

The boys love her so much.

Lil' E is in love. He always wants to hold her and is very willing to help out, as long as it is helping out his Baby Razy.

"Hey everyone I have a new baby sister come over and see her."

"Don't worry Baby Razy I will take care of you forever."

We are ready to go home.

Thank you to everyone for following up and for the wonderful comments and advise. Mommy and Baby are now doing great. Mommy is up and about and is already driving herself all over town running errands. Life is actually pretty good with our new addition. She sleeps great and really is a joy. We will keep you posted on Razy's progress.

Last Minute Prego Pictures

So I know that I am posting pregnancy pictures at the very last minute. Hey at least I got them done before Razy was born. Thanks to Bailes we got a few good ones. Lil' E is at that age where he does a cheese face every time so it can be pretty hard to get a good picture. Hope you enjoy them.

Where Did the Last 3 Years Go?

Where did the last 3 years go. I can't believe that our little boy is now all grown up and going to preschool. Lil' E started preschool on the 20th. Dropping him off was a little sad to think that he was now a big big boy. He had no problem with us leaving. In fact he was so excited to join his class for circle time. When we came to pick him up a few hours later he cried because he wanted to stay.

My First Day of School!

I am so excited...Like my cool Backpack!?!

On the Steps of Preschool

Tat Brothers

Mema got the boys some cool spiderman tats and they were excited to show them off.

Doble Was Cold!

Like I have said before, we check on the boys before we go to bed. This particular night we went in to check on the boys and this is what we found. Lil' E had climbed out of bed and put ALL of blankets in their room on Doble . We had heard Doble whining every so often but thought nothing on it. Now we know why he was doing it. He could barely move an inch with all the blankets. Needless to say we took all the blanket out and put them all in storage so it wouldn't happen again.

Razy Scheduled To Arrive!!

Razy has officially been scheduled to arrive. As long as her amnio comes back positive on the 24th, we will be going in for the C-section the following day. So Razy's Birthday will be on September 25th. Happy Birthday to Kyer(Peaches's brother) who has a birthday the same day. It will be fun though. The two of them will be having a homecoming together because Kyer will be coming home from his mission two weeks later. We can't wait for both events to occur. So if you aren't doing anything on September 25th you can think of us around 12:30pm as the doctor bring our new little girl into the world. We will keep you posted as things take place.
