2010!

Wow time flies when your having fun! Its so hard to write a blog now with Caitlynn. Shes always awake and always wants to play! Anyways Christmas was really good. I got to go to the Smiths Christmas party and the Peterson Christmas party! They were both great! The zoo was alot of fun too! Christmas was ok. Just a normal Christmas. Next year is going to be alot of fun cause Caitlynn will actually enjoy it lol. New years eve was lame like always. I dont know why New Years Eve is always lame but it is lol. Other then that nothing has really happened. Except Daryl was here and that was great! I didnt see him as much as I would like but it was still nice to see him.
I figured I didnt need to put up pictures cause everyone that reads my blog is my friend on facebook and all the pictures are there :)
Man I know it doesnt seem like it but life has been busy! Caitlynn can sit up almost by herself shes starting to lift herself when she gets on her belly she will be crawling all over the place soon. And she loves to talk! All the time! She will talk to anyone or anything the other day she was talking to the refrigerator lol. Its going to be interesting when she can actually say words.
I cant believe its a new year! 2009 was an ok year except I was pregnant through most of it lol. But it was a good year! This next year is going to be alot of fun. Watching Caitlynn grow, moving to Brigham when we get our taxes and many things I dont even know. Things can only get better from here :D
Can you believe that on Friday Caitlynn will be 3 months!!!!!!!!!!!! Crazy!

100th post!!!!!!!

Things Caitlynn can do:
hold her own head up
smile when you talk to her
makes tons of noise
hold on to her toys
sits up for about 30 seconds by herself
rolls from side to side
finally can fit into clothes
holds her own bottle sometimes
follows really well
I cant believe shes already over 2 months old. Man time flies by. So last Friday I finally got my gallbladder out. Im doing ok except I found out I was allergic to the sterile strips they put over my 4 incisions. (They did the little camera thing on me to get it out.) So I now and huge blisters where the strips were. Other then that things are good. Ive been eating food and havent really had any problems with them. Other then that not alot has happened Caitlynn got her first shots and hated it. I have never heard her scream like that. But thankfully she was only grumpy that day. Shes pretty strong. Alot of things are coming up and I will try to keep you all informed and try to take pictures even though im horrible at that. i hope you all have great holidays.

Almost 2 months!

Can you believe it! On next Monday Caitlynn will be 2 months old! its so crazy to think! Shes getting so big. Well she is to me everyone else says shes tiny they just dont get to see her everyday like I do lol. Well not much has been going on. I found a hobby :) I started beading. Its alot of fun and its going to make Christmas cheap this year since we are broke cause of medical bills. But hey thats life. Thanksgiving was wonderful! We went to Corinne and had dinner/lunch with the Smith side. Then we went to my friend Jessis to see her family. Then we went to Grams. That night me and Daniel went and saw New Moon. This was the 2nd time I saw it and I LOVE it! So much better then then first!! Other then that not much is going on. Well not yet anyways. Tomorrow I go in to get an ultrasound cause Im pregnant again.... JUST KIDDING! Im getting one to look at my stupid gallbladder. Then it will come out no later then the middle of next week. Im super scared! I mean I know its an easy surgery but I havent been in surgery since I was like 10! But Im sure it will be fine. Im super glad I live at my in laws cause if not I think I would have some troubles but thankful I have a wonderful mother in law to help me shes a life saver sometimes. Well I will let you all know how it goes and I hope all of you are doing good! Man I can believe this year is almost over!

New Look!

I changed the page how do you like it? lol Not much as been going on here. Halloween was nice. I was a pirate, Daniel was a ghost buster and Caitlynn was the cutest giraffe around lol.

See isnt she cute? :) We went to Grandma Smiths and the Peterson on Halloween then we went to grams and the Toni so Daniel could go trick or treating with Justin and then we went to Olivias party for a little while and went home. It was a long day.
November 1st we blessed Caitlynn. It was wonderful as soon as Daniel started it I just started crying cause the spirit was so strong. Then Daryl had to get up and say something since it was fast sunday and has us all crying. It was really nice. I mean my step dad even came to church and that was a miracle lol. He said after ward, "hey look the church didnt fall down." My grandma made Caitlynns dress and it was so beautiful.

Its a little big but thats ok everything is big on her. Ali also made her a head squishier and a bracelet that she wore at her blessing and then we put it in her hair when she is baptized and on her garter when she gets married. It has a really nice poem with it. Im so blessed that I have talented family members. The only thing that would of made that day better is if Durf was there. I miss him alot. But he will be here December 14th I do beileve and I cant wait!
Caitlynn is getting bigger every day. Well I think she is all I still here when I go places is "Wow shes so small." She will be a month on this Sunday! Her hair seems to grow longer every day too. She can hold her head up for a little while by herself. If you put her on the ground she can roll from her side to back or from belly to side and when she gets on her side she tries really hard to roll on her back. It makes her mad that she cant do it lol. Also if you lay her on her belly she gets on her knees and slides across the floor. If she could lift her head all the way Im sure she would crawl. Which scares me cause she is only 4 weeks old. Shes so advanced lol. According to Daryl we are always going to have to be one step a head of her which is true. I just love her so much! She is such a great blessing in our lifes and I love watching her grow.
And I promise I will get better at this blogging thing. Im blaming Facebook lol

Shes here!


As most of you know Caitlynn Suzanne is here. She was born on October 8th 2009. She weight 6 lbs 6 ozs and was 19 inches. She was born at 8:48 pm. Sorry it has took me forever to write but things have been busy and I have been lazy. Plus I thought everyone already knew cause of Facebook lol. But I figured I should write a post about it too.
Ok so she wasnt suppose to come till October 13th even though her due date was October 20th. My midwife thought it would be best if we could get her here as soon as possible since I was extremely uncomfortable cause I was at 3 for like 3 weeks and because I have problems in the past. Well I had an appointment on October 6th and Machell said come in on Thursday and not Friday cause I want to check your fluid. So Daniel took me in at 9 am on Thursday October 8th cause she also said she wanted to see me early. Well the ultrasound on Tuesday said that she was 7lbs and on Thursday it said she was 6 lbs 6 ozs. Plus the fluid was really low. So Machell said I think Im going to try to get you in earlier then next Tuesday so go out and get on the monitors (they always put me on these the last few weeks) and we will see what we can do. So I went out and Machell hadnt talked to her nurse yet cause she got right on the phone with the hospital so we had to wait for her to get off the phone. Well when she got off she said I got you in today dont even go home just head up right now. So thats what we did. Boy were we excited. Ok Daniel was excited I was scared to death lol. We got there and they got me in a room and start my IV and started me on medicine to make me have contractions (that was about 10:30 am). So me, Daniel, my mom, my grandma and great grandma sat around for awhile. Well about 4 I decided I would get an epidural before Machell came and broke my water. I wasnt in a lot of pain yet but they said it would get worse after my water was broke so I faced my fear. Cause I was really scared of it but everyone said that it would be ok and guess what? It was the worse part!!! Yeah it took them 45 mins and 5 or 6 different tries (I lost track cause of the pain) to get it in! I almost gave up when they were switching people doing it when Machell walked and told Daniel to pull on my arms to help curve my back when it finally went in. And Im so glad that I got it even if it did suck cause after that everything else was a piece of cake lol. Well after she broke my water (about 5:30) she said I was at a 5 and that we probably would be there all night she expected midnight or later. Well the nurse came in about an hour later and she told me I was at a 10! But she didnt want me to start pushing yet cause she wanted Caitlynn to move down naturally first cause it was easier that way. After that I lost track off time but it wasnt long till Machell was in and they had me start. I didnt have to push long which was good. And as you know Caitlynn was born at 8:48 pm so yeah it was a long day but could of been longer lol. Daniel thought it was cool cause he got to stand right next to my midwife cause I was to short to hold on to these handles to help you push so they had me play tug a war with Daniel with a towel lol. I liked him right there too cause I knew something was happening when hes eyes started watering lol. Things went really easy after the epidural until the next day when my back hurt like crazy! But thats ok.
We only stayed in the hospital only one day which was fine with us and since then things have been going great! I just cant believe it has only been 2 weeks it seems like it was longer then that but thats ok Im kind of glad things are going slow cause I know shes going to grow up way to fast! At her 2 week appointment she was 5 lbs and 14 ozs and 19 1/2 in. So they are a little worried cause shes not growing but shes eats so we will just have to wait and see.
Its just amazing to have her here! She is the most perfect baby. She hardly cries and if she does she doesnt cry for very long. She has been smiling since basically the day she was born. She can almost hold her head up by herself. If shes awake she now tries to give you kisses back if you kiss her. Shes just great! Its still really weird to me that Im a mom and that she is mine for all eternity but I do love her with all my heart!
Well I'll try to keep up with the blog thing so I dont have to write HUGE posts like this and so that you dont have to read HUGE posts like this lol.
