Caylee's 1st Picnic

Today was our neighborhood’s summer bash, so Cooper and I took Caylee. She enjoyed her first picnic even though she’s only 2 weeks and 6 days old. Next summer she’ll be able to enjoy the food, moon bounce, games, and swimming pool.

Growing Girl

Cooper and I took Caylee to the pediatrician on Thursday for a check up. Her Dr. says she's perfectly healthy. At Caylee's 3 day checkup she weighed 6lbs 4oz and only 2 weeks later on Thursday she weighed 7lbs 14oz. Caylee's favorite thing to do is nurse, so I wasn't surprised to see her gaining weight.

The fun begins

Sorry we haven’t had much time to make many posts lately. We’re slowly getting settled into this new routine. Caylee has been a little angel with the exception of a few late night temper tantrums. That’s to be expected of course. We set up a makeshift studio in the garage. We plan to take more over the weekend but here’s a couple we shot yesterday.

Caylee's Arrival

Cooper and I had just went to bed on Saturday May 30th and my water broke at 11:55pm! We were so shocked and excited! I wasn’t having contractions so we walked around the neighborhood for an hour. I started having good contractions so we packed up and arrived at the hospital at 2am. I walked the halls of the hospital for a few hours, until my contractions got more painful. After that I was in a hospital bed for the rest of my labor. I wanted to wait until I was dilated to a 5 before getting my epidural. Around 8am my contractions were getting so intense that I couldn’t take the pain any longer, just so happens the anesthesiologist was in a surgery and it would be an hour and a half until he could give me my epidural. Cooper and I breathed through contractions for 30 more minutes then I asked the nurse for any kind of pain medicine she could give me. I was given Stadol and it made me very tired any loopy! I received my epidural at 10am and it was smooth sailing from then on! Caylee was born Sunday May 31st at 1:54pm. She weighed 6LB 8OZ and was 19 ¾”. She received a perfect 10 on her apgar score and 100% on her hearing test! We are so lucky to have such a perfect baby girl and an easy labor without any complications! After Caylee was born I said, “that was easy!!” I only had to push a few times and she was in my arms! I couldn’t imagine my life without Caylee! She is the best baby and has brought Cooper and I so much joy! She melts our hearts over and over every day! She is doing such a great job nursing and we’re so thankful for all the help and prayers from our friends and family! I highly recommend Deaconess Hospital to everyone! The nurses were so wonderful and gave us the best care! I hope you enjoy the pictures! Sorry it took me a while to post them!
