We have had such a fun week! I swear we have been to my mother in law, Kayleen's everyday! One of those days we made punkin sugar cookies and spaghetti! Wade and Ash came and we had so much fun, eating and visiting! Yesterday, Kay and I and the kids met Steph in Evanston for lunch and the Chinese Buffet and then did some shopping at good ol Wal Mart! We got home and ran in to see Grandma Rita and then rode back to Evanston with Nick and Brian! We hung out at Stephs for a bit, got some pizza and enjoyed our night! Nick has been busy rounding up the cows and even took Tagg for the whole day! They were both pretty tired when they got home!
Presley has finally grown out of here premie clothes and fits into some headbands so it has been fun playing dress up! I even painted her nails brown for fall! We match! She is getting cuter by the day! Tagg sure loves his baby siser!! We are trying to get him interested in potty training, its so expensive to buy diapers for 2!! They are definatly worth it, tho!! Life is great!!

This is what we have been up to....

Meet Presley....

Sister was born on Sept.11! It was a long labor! I was induced earlier that morning around 10am! I was stuck in the early stages of labor for most of the day and about 2 hours before i delivered(10.30ish) I finally started to progress! My epidural worked too well, I was so numb that i was uncomfortable! Our families were there to break up the monotony! I mostly just laid there and listened to everyone visit! I tried to sleep, but i was just too uncomfortable! What a memorable day! I was so tickled to finally meet this beautiful little gal that i get to call MINE!! When i started pushing, it took 2 contractions and she was here! She was pretty tiny, 5lbs 15oz 18in! Everyone was so excited to come in and meet her! Tagg got to be there the whole day and came in right after she was born! It was so neat to see his face light up the first time he saw her! Nick brought him and and they watched the nurse clean her and do her stats! Nick's face was adorable, he smiled the whole time! Nothing melts your heart more that to see a man get emotional! My dad was the same way! What a spiritual experience it is to give birth and have the veil so thin! I know that my grandparents that have passed away and nicks grandfather were right there with here! We had a long night ahead!!




We were in the post delivery room for about an hour, waiting to go to our room! Once we got there, the nurse came in to bathe sis and answer any questions we had! Another nurse swooped in to take her for more testing! We decided to stay awake so that i could nurse again before calling it a night! We were up until 3am! I decided to turn my phone off so that we could get the rest that we needed with out the interruptions! We both slept like babies and i got to sleep on my stomache for the first time! HEAVEN!! We had a ton of visitors and ate lots! I had free room service at anytime all day long!! We stayed for a day and a half and were able to leave! I was so scared that she would have Jaundice because Tagg did, so it was so nice to find out that she was great! Such a wonderful experience!
