Baby is Here!




Ok so I have been so bad about updating this! I did have the baby. We had her on July 9th at 4:20 pm. She weighed 6 lbs 6 oz. and was 19 1/2 inches long. We named her Kaiya Ryan Watts. She is absolutely adorable!Here is the brief story of how it happened. I was scheduled to be induced that day already and was on call for them to tell me when to come in. They told me I could be called anywhere from 12 midnight thursday night till 12 midnight friday depending on how busy they were. So we got ready for bed to wait for the call and I laid in bed around eleven thirty thursday night. Well at 12:30 I got the call to come on in! So we went in and I already lost that night of sleep:) So we went in and they gave me Potossin to start my contractions and get me dilating. Well that process took me all day! I was only at a 3 or so when I went in. So it was a long day. She was in the wrong position when it came time to push her out. She was sideways and her head was getting stuck in my pelvis. So the poor thing was getting stuck when I started pushing her. I pushed probably 5 or so times, but the doctor was really yanking her out cause of the way she was in there. So poor thing came out all bruised. Her side of her face had a big bruise, her arms, legs, and back was too. She also had jaundice really bad too. We came home from the hospital the next day, but got a call a day later on Monday night to come back into the hospital and ended up staying 2 days cause her jaundice was so bad that they wanted her under constant light. That was not fun! I hate those things. But we did go home after that and have been good since. She lost some weight through all that and came home weighing 5 lbs 12 oz. So she was tiny! I can't believe how small she is.. My babies have all been good size. My first was 8 lbs 10 oz and Layla was 7 lbs 9 oz. So to have a 6 lb baby was a new experience for me. But I love how small she is! Anyway were doing good and she will be one month old on Friday already! Here are a few pictures of that whole experience!!!

It's a girl





So it is official. We were pretty sure that it was one, but not 100%. Well we went and did another ultrasound yesterday and its for sure a girl!! We're so excited. I can't wait to see her. Already have her name and I'm getting her a crib set this weekend. Its coming to hit me there is going to be another child in this house, and its still a little scary. We have some great children, so I think the transition will be pretty easy. My kids are so great with helping out, that I think they will be happy to do it. Here are a few pictures of our ultrasound...

Pregnancy Update

So I'm 5 1/2 months now and already can't wait to be done. I know I'm the most impatient person in the world, so its hard to think I still have awhile. So we did find out what it is, but I can tell you that I am not 100% convinced.. so this is what happens. I go to get a 3d ultrasound at around my 15th week and the day I go to get it, the lady's machine had broken. So of course I was really bummed and didn't get to find out and had to wait until my next dr appt. So I wait till I'm 20 weeks and finally go to my doctor. Well you know how doctors are, they are mostly looking to make sure the heart is okay, brain developed, and everything looks ok. So when we get to the finding out part, he looks for about a minute then says, " well I can't tell for sure, but I don't know about 70% sure that its a boy." ok so that is not okay with me. I can't go off of that amount of percentage. So I was dying to know for sure, so I call the 3d lady cause she had called me that day and told me her machine was finally fixed. I call her and she can get me in right then. We go and look for a half hour and guess what, the baby's legs were crossed the whole time and she couldn't tell. So I'm getting pretty frustrated and she says to go eat and drink some caffeine and then the baby will wake up a bit and move around. So I leave and go eat and come back to her and we look for a while and she comes to the conclusion that she is pretty sure that its a girl! So what am I to think. She said that she has never gotten it wrong yet, and she is pretty definite its a girl. So thats where we left it. I think its a girl and have always felt that way about this one. I also had a dream before I was pregnant and it was a girl and I named her and everything in my dream, so I think that it is one. Its happened that way with every one of my pregnancy's. So we are leaving it on it's a girl everyone!! We are really excited and can't wait to have her here. I will be having another ultrasound in about 6 weeks or so, so I will for sure confirm with my doctor that its not a boy.
Other than that, we have been going to Salt Lake a ton these past few weekends in a row for a few different reasons and have been pretty busy. The kids are doing great. They are both getting so big and have so much personality! I think thats all for now, so I will keep updating and maybe take a picture of my fat self. Till next time....
