What I Did Today – Crabby Baby



Crabby Baby, originally uploaded by ahhyeah.

Denver was crabby so I went and got him from his crib.

Everything is Great!

I’m finally heading to bed after working on a fix for my website. Some of you won’t follow what I’m saying here but it’s ok. I noticed about a week ago that my website was not rendering (looking correct) in Internet Explorer but it was in Firefox. I realized I was two upgrades behind on my website theme. So I upgraded and all is well. Not sure what was causing the problem but it’s fixed now.

Now on to Denver and Brooke, the important parts. Denver is great, he likes to pee on mom when changing his diaper but not dad. Ha ha. But really he is a very easy baby. He’s sleeping through the nights mostly. Today we went on an adventure to the mall. He seemed to like it. Here’s some pics:

Sit & Wait
I took this while sitting and waiting for Brooke to feed Denver. She was getting ready to in in the door on the right there and another woman and her baby walked up. I told Brooke to invite her in and I would "sit & wait"

Brooke’s dad is coming in tomorrow so that will be fun. Ok, I’m off to bed, Goodnight.

Baby Update #7 – Almost Done

A 7, then a 9/10! We are almost there! They say within the next hour we will have a baby! They are calling in the surgeons to set up the room. The baby is at a +1, meaning it is just down past the pelvis. Hopefully the next update will include a picture! P.S. Devin (Brooke’s sister) has left MN.

Baby Update #6 – The Calm Before The Storm

Well, Brooke is taking a nap now and I just got back from McDonalds (there is one in the hospital). So far, Brooke’s mom (Kennarae), my mom (Shiela), my brother (Trevor), my sister (Lacee), and my other sister (Jaysha) are here in the lobby waiting. I think Brooke’s dad (Darwin) and Brooke’s sister (Devin) will also be here soon. Brooke is still having contractions, big ones, but she can’t even tell. As I was writing this she mumbled, “I don’t feel so good.” Meaning upset tummy. I looked at the Fetal Monitor and she was maxed out on the contraction scale. A couple hours ago she would have been… well… lets say not so happy. Ok, I’m going to go now. I think this is the one time I should step away from the computer… :)

Baby Update #5

Epidural is in and Brooke is 100% better, they even told her she can take a little nap. Keep praying, things are good and her cervix is moving fast.

Baby Update #4

Ok, we’re at a 6 and epidural time… more soon…

Baby Update #3

Ok, the latest is… the doctor came in and broke Brooke’s water. And starting around 10:00am they will start the pitocin in her IV to induce labor. Also the amniotic fluid was green meaning the baby went potty so pray it doesn’t swallow some or that can be bad. All else is good.

Baby Update #2

A little more news. Our first nurse had to go home so we have a new one now. She offered to let Brooke get in the wirlpool and of course Brooke accepted. The nurse also said the doctor will probably break her water when she gets here although we don’t know when that will be. More later…

Baby Update

Well we are at the hospital now and here to stay. Brooke was having contractions every four and a half minutes so we decided to come down. As of now she is dialated to a 3. Only troubles so far is starting the IV. Otherwise all is good. Keep checking back for more updates.
