Hello Everyone!! It has been a while since I last wrote but things have been a little busy. Vivian was welcomed into this world on August 21, 2008 (the day after her dad's birthday). I decided to be induced so my family could be up here for it and because Grandma was stressing out a little bit. I didn't have any contractions by her due date, however, it still worked out for the best because the little peanut was bum first so thos
e contractions would have never started. After 10 hours of sitting there going through the contractions, the doctors discovered this tiny problem and 30 minutes later, Vivian was here via C-section. The whole delivery went great and Vivian weighed in at 8 lbs 4 oz and was 22 1/2 inches long. Vivian and I were in the hospital Thurs-Sunday and boy was I glad to go home! She was also a little juandiced at first, so while we were there, they put her on the bilirubin
bed. Other then that, she did great! Since she has come home with us, life has been totally different. She is my everything. My days are now based on when she takes a nap and when she eats which is about every hour and a half. This made for an incredibly hard time nursing. I felt really bad at first, but then I realized she is happy and growing strong and that is what really matters. If I didn't have to work, I would probably spend all day just staring at her but since I do have to work, I squeeze it in when I'm not playing with her :) Luke is also adorable with her. He has gotten better at giving her a bath and he is still working on changing her diaper. He doesn't like how much her legs wiggle. So far her favorite times are when she's naked and when she is eating. She has recently started smiling so just putting her on the bed and tryin
g to get her to do that is fun. We've also realized that from the nose up, she looks like Luke when he was a baby and from the mouth down, she looks like me. She also has the chubbiest body ever but it is absolutely adorable! I just want to kiss her cheeks all day. So, as you can probably tell, I love being a mommy! Getting up in the middle of the night really isn't all that bad, poopy diapers come and go, and it's great when
the crying stops because you made everything all better. Just looking at her makes me feel so blessed. Tomorrow she will be two months old. I can't believe how fast time has flown by. I'm just trying to take in every minute of it.
