Oops...he did it again

Remember the infant car seat picture of Phili a while back? Well I think he outdid himself this time....I was nursing Wesley in the living room and somebody was awfully quiet in the dining room :)

Update

Due to some water damage in our basement, I haven't been online much as that is where our computer is. We still haven't entered the world of wireless Internet but we will get there someday :)

Anyways, things are going well with the boys. Daddy went back to work today. He used a lot of vacation to stay home and help with the boys and the house and he did wonderful. Honestly, he blew me away and made me fall in love with him ten times over again :) Here are a few pics.

He adores him

Wessie

For you Miss~I obviously haven't showered or done my hair or makeup in this photo but whatev, I'll keep it real :)

A few pics

So life with two little ones has been a wee bit busier than I anticipated.....busy but wonderful! Here are a few pics to tide you over until I write an actual post :) By the way, Wesley was 7 pounds 12 ounces when he was born. We brought him in when he was 6 days old and he was 8 lbs 9 ounces! He loves to eat like his mommy and daddy :)

He's here!

Wesley Cooper blessed our lives with his presence on Friday afternoon. We are so in love. I couldn't be happier. Here are a few pictures. I will update soon with my birth story!

Strange

My mom and grandma just left and they took Phili with them in case Wesely decides to show up in the middle of the night. I don't have anybody here I'd feel comfortable dropping Phili off with in the middle of the night so we'd have to have him with us until my mom could get here which is a 2 hour drive.

I was up all night with cramps and very inconsistent contractions and then at around 5 this morning, they just went away. What in the world is going on!?

Anyways, what feels so strange is having a house without Phili in it. For someone who was really wanting her alone time not too long ago, I sobbed like a baby when he drove away. I so appreciate the help and I know he is in wonderful hands and he'll have such a fun time with my family but it's killing me. I have been away from him overnight a couple times but never more than that. The plan is for her to keep him until Sunday or when/if something happens sooner.

I feel like a part of me is missing. We really don't do anything without Phili, so this is such a strange feeling. Hopefully Wesley will decide to make his appearance soon and it will all make sense but right now I desperately just want to be with both my baby boys.

Yup....still here :)

After walking for what seems like all day yesterday and eating a whole pineapple for dinner....nothing. Haha...

Lots of pressure down there, back pain and cramping but no contractions today or last night. I am starting to feel exhausted, physically and emotionally. I know the end is in sight so I am trying to be positive. I am in great company with lots of help so I really can't complain. Hopefully I will post good news soon!

Still here

I hope I don't have to start my posts off with that phrase much longer :) After having light cramps yesterday/last night. I woke up at 4:30 this morning with contractions. They were about every 10-20 minutes. After a few hours of them, I just started to hurt all over. It felt like I had my period. Cramps and lower back pain. I was really nauseous from the pain. Well, after a little while, the pain started to go away :( I still feel little cramps now and then and it feels like his head has dropped even more if that's possible.

We're going to go walk around downtown and hopefully get things moving. My Dr. told me that walking doesn't help start labor but I don't care, I'm going to try anyways!

Phili is absolutely loving having my mom and grandma here. It is so much fun to see him enjoy them so much and I feel very blessed to have them here.

P.S. I just wanted to let any family that was planning on coming down know that the hospital has a quiet time from 1-3 in the birthing center. I believe that is the only time that visitors aren't allowed. Have a good day!

39 weeks

Still here :) I had an appointment this morning and I'm dilated to a 4, his head is at +1 station and I'm still 50% effaced. She said she thinks I'll go soon. I am having some cramping right now so I am really hoping she's right! My mom and grandma are coming down for a few days so it would be perfect if I go while they are here. I will keep you updated!
