Told Ya!!

Hmm..July 30th..yup..bad at journaling! HAHA! Well, Keaton was born via c-section Monday May 17, 2010. I was addmitted to be induced Friday and by Sunday I hadn't made much progress. I was at a 6 pretty much all day. I started getting a fever and the chills, and the baby's heart started racing. So they came in and did an emergency c-section. I was pretty scared. And very nausous!! When they pulled him out, the cord was wrapped around his neck. And he still had a cone head because he had been trying to decend all day. Thank heavens it all turned out ok. I am so in love with little Keaton David. Its like Christmas when you have another baby. A little gift you get to learn all about. He is such a good baby. He sleeps a lot and has put himself on a schedule. He wakes up once every night to nurse. He has started cooing and smiling. And his daddy and grandpa David can get him to laugh. He is so sweet and very mellow. I'm still a little traumatized from the surgery!! We had always talked about having 4 children. But when the Dr said any other pregnancy I have will end in a c-section, it sure put some doubt in my mind. But after talking to friends and family who are experts, I think it might not be so bad. But 4 under 4 , I don't know if I could do it. Some days 3 under 3 feels like I reach my limit. But I really am grateful for each of them. Since my last post, Kelsi turned 3. We got her ears peirced for her birthday. She is such a big girl. She is so smart. She loves to dance and sing and is such a good helper to me. She and Kyler love to hold their new brother. I went today to try to get her in a preschool. I was put on a lottery and will find out Wednesday if we got in. I am praying she does! Kyler turns 2 Sunday. He is such a big boy! He is starting to potty train himself. He hasn't gone #2 in his diaper in a week! :) I sure love that!! Until my next post!

Well, I figured I would create a blog! I'm HORRIBLE at journal writing, so I figure, with our business and Facebooking I'm online enough, I can sign in once and a while and update everyone with what's going on.

I'm 32 weeks pregnant with baby #3 and that is all I can think about. I'm just really hoping my life won't totally be out of control when baby #3 gets here. The Dr. says I'm measuring a little big and I've been having constant back pain. So I'm looking forward to May rolling around.

Kelsi is such my big girl! She will be 3 in July. I have tried and failed at potty training so far. Its weird, she will only go #2 in the potty, but trying to get her to go pee, is like pulling teeth. Everyone says she's not ready yet. But I sure am! The thought of 3 kids in diapers, is so disturbing! I really just need to remember to have patience and, so I've been told, let her take her time.

Kyler will be 2 in August. He is talking so much! It so much easier when they start communicating. He is such a good boy. He is really pretty mellow and I love how he's becoming a really attached to Jason. Every morning Kyler wakes up about 15 mins. before Jason goes to work and follows him around the house. Jason loves it. They get to have their little bonding time.

Our business has really slowed down. I'm just really grateful we put money away and paid some bills enough in advance to help us weather the hit construction is getting. Thankfully someone did order a dumpster for this weekend. I'm so thankful.

Well I think that's enough for now. I'm sure I will have more to get off my mind tomorrow.

PS. They were watching Snow White after church Sunday. Kelsi is afraid of the wicked witch!
