It's a BOY!!!!

WE HAD A SON!!!!

I can't believe it! I'm so excited. I have been home about a week and a half now. It has been awesome. My little Zoe bug has been so good. She always wants to hold him and kiss him. I'm so happy she's not upset by all of it.

Last week we had to take him to his doc and get his circumcision ( I have no idea how to spell it). I feel so bad, it looks like it hurts. But I would rather him have a few days of discomfort then a life time of infections.
Saturday his belly button fell off. He has a cute belly button! It kind of is like his sisters.

Today was my ob two week check up. I found out that my uterus was extremely thin and they had to do some blatter repairs! I was a little upset. But I am doing great and my doc is not worried so nether am I.

I haven't posted in while

I know I haven't posted in a long time. So I will do a quick run through of what has been happing with us.

So today is May 30, which happens to be my birthday!! Yeah for me! I'm now 25 years old! I'm half way to 50, sad... :(

Monday will be June 1st and our new baby will be born on that day!!!! We can't wait. We still don't know what we are having so it will be so exciting when the baby is born and the doctor says "It's a ......!"

Zoe is getting so big! We talk to her all the time about the new baby, but i'm not to sure she gets it yet. She probably won't until we bring it home. I hope she is ok with all of it and not to jealous. Everyone keeps saying she is going to be a great helper. I hope so.

Here a new picture of my belly before I give birth to our new baby.

So on the 14th I went to my doctor's appointment and they moved my sugary date to June 1st. NO!!!! I know it's only a few more days then the 27th but that means I have to wait longer. My due date is June 8th and my doc said the hospital won't let him take it earlier than one week before my due date. So I have no chose but to wait a few more days. I will find out for sure about the time on next Tuesday at my next appointment. I hope there are no more changes.

I am so excited for my family. Last week my cousin had an adorable baby girl. And then yesterday my other cousin had an adorable little girl. BABIES ,BABIES, BABIES!!!! Got to love it!

I wish I could write about what an awesome Easter we had and put up all kind of pictures of Zoe in her Easter dress with the family. But, Zoe was so sick that weekend. :( She was throwing up and had a fever. My poor baby. Finally she is totally back to herself. I missed her :).

I had a really emotional day yesterday. I had been working on a blanket for months. Crochet. I only get to work on it when Zoe naps or before bed. So it's taken me a long time. Well, yesterday after putting Zoe down for a nap I go find it and sit to work on it. All of a sudden something catches my eye and I look at the bottom. Zoe had found some scissors and took them to my blanket!!! I cried the whole time she napped. Since it's the beginning I don't think I can save it. I didn't even show her I found it. I don't know when she did it and I don't feel right to be mad at her now. I had a bad day yesterday. But, Today is better.

What's new?

So, i haven't really wrote anything in awhile. Because, nothing has really been happening.

I am feeling a ton better. All the pain I had in my side is gone, but now I am having contractions and sometimes they hurt. I was thinking of talking to my doctor about a VBAC instead of another c-section. But after some of these contractions I think I am to much of a baby to go into labor. Plus, I am the type of person that I always think the worst is going to happen. What if my old scar opens during labor? I know the chances are so slim, but, what if? I am so excited!!!! As of today, I only have 54 more days until the day I will meet my baby!!! I can't wait. I am 30 weeks and 5 days. My surgery is scheduled for May 27. I'm kind of freaking out because I still don't have Zoe's new room ready. She's still in the nursery. So as of right now the baby has nowhere to go! You would think my nesting stage would have kicked in already, but it has not. Maybe one day.

My poor baby has had an ear infection. I hate it. I cry with her and hold her. I hate to hear her cry it's so sad. She has also had this really bad cough. It is so hard to take her to the doctor because she hates it so much. When ever I have to take her she freaks out in the waiting room. Then when we go back and the doctor comes in she starts screaming and crying and she won't let him touch her. I don't know why all of a sudden she started doing this, it has only been since about Christmas. I had to take her on Tuesday and it was hard! I know she needs to be seen to get better but I hate having to put her through that.

We just got a puppy! He is so cute! He is the son of our dog Amigo. We named him Flint. He is about 6 weeks old. The mom lives across the street from us. He is having such a hard time being potty trained! It is so frustrating.

I guess that's it for now. I'm going to try to write more often.

This sucks, so I have been having really bad pains in my side for about a week. Last week when it started I called my doctor and they told me at my stage in the pregnancy the baby is growing really fast and the muscles on my side are stretching. So they told me to take a warm bath and try some Tylenol. But nothing was helping. After about two days of the pain it finally went away. So I had a good week end and I didn't think anything of it. But Monday it started again and Tuesday I woke up in so much pain I couldn't take it anymore. I called the doctor and got an appointment to see him. Something was wrong and I know it! So I went and saw him and he checked me and said everything looks okay so he sent me to an ultra sound. Yesterday I went in to the ultra sound and I got to see my little baby again, still don't know what I'm having. It's getting so big. I'm so glad I got to see it again but the tech said everything is great. The baby is growing right, the uterus is fine, and the placenta looks great. So the only thing they could think of was that along the left side of a pregnant women's side is where your colon stretches. So they think I have gas or maybe a small block in it. They started my on Gas X and a RX to help. Since I started taking it I haven't had to may problems so I think that was what was wrong. I feel so much better! Yeah! I have never heard of anyone being in this much pain during pregnancy. I was crying so much and i couldn't even take care of Zoe. Sad. I'm glad I feel better. I'll have to post some of the ultra sound pictures later.

zoe bug

I can't believe it. Today I have been on line looking for stuff for Zoe's Birthday. She will be two in just a few weeks. She came over to me and started talking. I had to stop and take it all in. I can hold a conversation with her! I'm in awe. I can't believe how big she is and how smart. After being so happy, now I am so sad. My baby is getting big.

I don't get it!?!?

When I was pregnant with Zoe I had the best health I have ever had. I was never sick with a cold or anything like that. It was the first Christmas in years that I was not sick. But for some reason with this pregnancy I keep getting a cold! I'm so sick of being sick. I am just getting better from a cold right now and I hope I don't get anymore. It's so had to be sick in the first place but then to be pregnant on top of it and a stay at home mom. It's not like I can just stay in bed and get better, I have to get her feed and dressed and now she loves to get on the counter! :-) This pregnancy is way different than the last, that's for sure!

Oh yeah, I have been sick so I haven't had the chance to update about the baby. It kicks so hard now that you can see it! I'm only 22 weeks and 4 days but it's strong! Matt felt it kick around Christmas but now he doesn't have to feel for it, he can see it. It also moves all the time! I don't even know when it rests because it seems like it is always kicking or turning. I love it! I am really going to miss that part of being pregnant.

Totally Exhausted! :(

I am totally exhausted today. Yesterday we went to Salt Lake to see family. Matt dropped Zoe and I off at my mom's house. When I got there I went to my parent's room to see my dad. He was laying down, so I asked him if he was ok. He told me he had a dizzy spell and wasn't feeling well. I asked him to tell me the whole story. So this is what he told me. He was doing the laundry and he bent down in the basket and all of a sudden he had a rush from the bass of his brain to the top of his head and he felt like he was going to pass out. He stood up and everything got blurry and he had to grab the wall to stop him from falling. After that he had a head ache that wouldn't go away and every time he moved he got dizzy.

I freaked out! Why didn't you call 911! To me that sounded like signs of a stroke. I went down stairs and talked to my mom. I told her to take him in. I got there around eleven and this had happen around eight. My mom shrugged me off for a little while. Around two she tried to sit him up and he just fell over on the bed holding his head. I told her again to take him in. My dad is good with pain and he was not doing well with this. So after that we all went to St. Marks ER.

We were there from around three to about nine. Thank God, nothing was wrong. They did so many test on him because they too thought he had ether had a stroke or a bleed of some kind. His CT scan and MRI and all his tests came back all fine.

So after spending the whole day in the ER, today I am so exhausted! It weares you out to be that worried.

feeling good

So I started work Monday night. And well, I quit too. It was the shortest job I have ever had. I really wanted it to work out but they had me using a bunch of different cleaners and lifting big things around and washing them. I told them, "I'm pregnant I can't be lifting all these things." Then told me that's the job. I finished the night and called the store manager in the morning. Oh well.

Sad Today

I'm pretty sad today. I got hired at Mcdonald's a week ago Friday and I never heard anything from them. I was thinking "maybe they forgot, oh-well." But last night they called and I start work tomorrow night. It's also a bad time. I wanted a night shift so I didn't need a babysitter for Zoe, but I have to work from 10pm to 4am. Then I have to get up Tuesday morning and go to a doc appointment at 10am. This is going to be rough to get used to. But Matt has already told me if I don't like it I don't have to stay.
So if anyone is in Lake Point in the middle of the night and want to eat, check out McDonalds. If i'm there I can give you a discount.

ultra sound

Yesterday was my ultra sound. It went great! The baby is doing great and is growing good. It's little heart looks good (all the valves work great). It really make me feel great. Right now it's breech but they said not to worry about it, it will turn soon. As far as we can see it has 10 toes and 10 fingers. All it's organs are developed as they should be. If you haven't noticed I have been saying it, we did not find out what we are having. Although I do think I saw a little something. I'm not sure though. We already have the names picked out. If it is boy, he will be named Patrick Mathew Dyson. And if it is a girl, she will be named Chrisie Ann Dyson.

I can't wait until the day we meet our little angel!

First day

Well, I just was thinking of starting a blog. It's really big right now, so why not? I am making a new years goal of writing at least once a week.

So let's see what I can write right now. My daughter will be two next month and this weekend I ordered all the things I will need to through her a party. I love the internet. I am too lazy to go out shopping, I can just jump on line and order anything I need. Now all I need is somewhere to through the party. I did it at my house laster year and I really didn't like having all those people in my home. I think it will be better on me if I rent a place and have it there. My family grew up really close, so parties include all my cuz and their families. There are always a lot of people at them.

I'm pretty sad because I had to get a part time job to help with some of the bills. I have been a stay at home mom for the last year and loved every min of it. But last week I got hired at non-other than.... McDonald's! Yeah! I'm lovin it! Just Kidding! The only reasons I wanted to work there is it is really close to home and I can work nights so I can still be home with Zoe in the day. I still have not worked a day yet. They are suppost to call me with my schedule but no news yet.

Tomorrow is my ultra sound for this pregnancy. I am so excited! We will not be finding out what the sex is. I hope! :) If the baby is going to show it then I guess we will have to find out. Oh well. You don't always get what you want, right?

I guess that's it for now.
