3 days before I had my baby^^^^^^
38 weeks^^^^^
well update from August of last year...my husband and I got back together :D I got my driver's license FINALLY!!! then my daughter and I went back home in early September. on the way down I taught myself how to crochet [my mom drove]...anyway my husband wanted to teach me how to drive our car but I didn't want to till I got more experienced with an automatic [our's was a stick shift] so yeah...anyway I crocheted a blanket for Allison, it came out great.
We then found out what we were having [baby] WE WERE HAVING ANOTHER GIRL!!!!!! we were so excited!!! my husband was calling everyone he knew telling them :D
anyway our halloween was okay...Allison got sick, and so we didn't take her out but I dressed up and went out with some of the ladies from our church...that was really fun...I was a spanish princess :)
thanksgiving was really good, my husband spent it with our adopted family down here, because he had to work the next day...Allison and I went up to see my family, spent the week there. that was a lot of fun :D I ate too much LOL ^^^see above picture LOL just kidding that's me preggers
Christmas was pretty good, we didn't have a lot of money but we had enough to buy Alli some cute things, my hubby bought me a new camera!!! and I bought him a bluetooth for his phone. and then we ate with the family down here :) the food was [as always] awesome!!!
my birthday wasn't so great my hubby and I kind of fought and he played pc games all day...I was pissed that he didn't even think about throwing me a party...anywhere...but oh well...there will be other b-days
2010!!!!
well I had my baby on January 12 2010 at 11:39am!!! my water broke about midnight, we went to the hospital about 2 am, they induced me about 8am, I started feeling like I needed to push around 11am and then she was born a half an hour later...she was 8lbs 8oz and 21 in long...she was 2lbs heavier than Allison was...and believe me I felt those extra lbs...IT WAS HARD!!! through pushing I was like "I can't do this" but I had to and it was worth it!! anyway my adopted mom was there for me :) she helped hold my hand and my leg too I think...but yeah :) my hubby helped too...anyway we named her Kaitlin Renee.
we got to go home the next day
anyway she was a little jaundiced...her doctor didn't worry about it untill almost one week later...Kaitlin had blood drawn and her bili ruben was at 19.5% so her dr told us to take her to the children's hospital...so we did...they took her blood again and it was at 22%...[if it got to 30% they would have to do a blood transfusion to get rid of all the effected blood cells] anyway they got her up to the NICU and under the bili lights, she was in a room with 5 other babies, she was the biggest. anyway she stayed in that room overnight...I couldnt stay in the room with her but they had a quiet room they let me stay in...I had to pump breastmilk coz she had to stay under those lights...
anyway the next day they moved her into a private room, so I could stay in there with her, her bili was down to 15% but she still needed to be under those lights...but they let me take her out and feed her...she stayed in the hospital 2 more nights. the last night she didn't need to be under the lights...we were so glad
anyway they let her go the next afternoon...
well Kaitlin is now a month old...she'll be 2 months on March 12...Allison will be 2 years on March 13, that should be really cool :)
but yeah things are going really well for me...I started my own photography business
Photography Expressions By Krysten :)
my husband and I are doing a lot better :) Allison is doing great as a new big sister
and Kaitlin is a little pigglet hehe she loves getting mama milk :) so yeah the only problem has been I've had to supplement with formula a bit...but I'm trying to get her back fully on breastmilk
anyway that's the update
I'll be updating more too hehe I promise
Byeeeee
