Mother Hood

Oh the beauty of being a mother watching this little girl grow has been the best thing in the world, its probably been the hardest thing as well all I want is for her to stay this little forever never growing up I know that can never happen but one can only wish. I love this little girl of mine and couldn't ask for a life to be any better an amazing loving husband who works so hard for this family and the best little girl in the world LIFE IS GOOD!!

Update

Hey everyone, just to update you all we took Mckinlee to the doctor on Tuesday because she had thrush (its a sore in her mouth) well as the doctor was checking her out she noticed that Mckinlee's heart murmur was back and so they sent us to get a chest x-ray and a ekg so we went and did all that and they told us to go see a cardiology pediatric doctor on thursday so we went and did that and they said she has a hole in her upper chambers of her heart. so with in the next month we will take her to get surgery on it they said it was very common, so we will pray for the best and I will keep you all updated on her thanks

"I never knew how much my heart could love until I got called a mom" 

I'm loving motherhood it's so amazing to watch this little girl grow, and she gets bigger by the second. I LOVE when she looks at me and smiles :) it just melts my heart, I love that she knows mine and her daddy's voice. She is starting to follow us with her eyes. I didn't know it would be this hard to go back to work, I have a week left and it's going to kill me not to spend every waking minute with her it breaks my heart I cry when I think of going back but I know it has to be done and she will have so much fun with her dad, aunts, and grandmas while I'm at work. This mommy world is such a change but the BEST change I've ever had.  And I just want my husband to know how amazing he is with Mckinlee. And how much he loves me and shows it everyday thank you so much for everything you have done for this family I love you more than life its self your best friend and wife Nikki

Baby News

She's here she was born on June 2nd 2009 at 3:47 am I went in on June 1st to have them start me 

and for some reason I was not dilating after a few hours went by I was almost there but then I just stayed at a 5 then I had my brother in law Spencer and Adam's dad give me a blessing. Then I finally got to a 9 so they said I wouldn't need to do a c-section but then after 2 hours of pushing they said it wouldn't work and they would have to do a c-section so they rushed me into the O.R room and finally she was here 8lbs even and 19 1/2 inches she's been so much fun and we are all loving her!!!

No baby yet......

Don't worry I will let you all know when she gets here I am 3 days over my due date and if she doesn't come this week the doctor said he will start me on Monday which is June 1st ha ha my birthday ( that will be easy for adam to remember lol) I'm praying that she comes this week though because Adam has to go back to work on Monday and that way he will have time to be with us before he leaves again. I'm trying not to stress out because I know that won't help anything so all of you keep your fingers crossed..... Thanks and I hope my next post will be the new baby :)

Updating Everyone

Sorry everyone I know I suck at updating this blog but now that we are in our house and we have the internet I can update you more often, and I know as soon as Mckinlee gets here I will have tons of pictures of her on this, but to update you all we are doing great, Adam is still flying in Arizona and I still work at Sizzler as a manager. Pregnancy as been so GREAT everyone LOVES to touch the belly I can't wait for her to be here though I'm hoping that is very soon, well I will try to keep all of you updated more often......
