Puppies.............

Here is the proud Dad Ruger. Today, Baya's water broke at 7:30 this morning. and went ALL day long with no pups. Well no pups at 6 and Aspyn had a soccer game so we just thought ok we will go. well we came back to this cute little guy. He was born at 6:45 pm. JC came to help cause Jeff and I did not know what we were doing . Well as the night grew closer Jeff had to go to work at 9. and JC stayed there well nothing was happening and we thought she was done. So, he left and I went to bed cause I didnt sleep at all that day and I had to go to work at 12. Well JC called me woke me up at 11:30 and I went to see if anything happened well this little guy was there.

 Baya did such a great job. We were worried cause she is still a pup herself. But it looks like Baya wanted to do it herself with no one watching. Cause when I came home at 2 in the morning this is what I saw.......1,2 and 3 oh wait theres 4 more..

Here they are all together. 2 boys and 4 girls.

decorating christmas cookies

Today was really funny. The kids and I were planning on making pumpkin cookies. Well Kristina called us and wanted us to go make them at grandmas house because thier family was going to go and making them there. So we went and made some Yummy sugar cookies. The kids love making them cause they were santa, christmas trees, angel, star oh ya and kristinas HOHOHO ones. here is the kids cutting thiers out. It was funny cause they kept eating just the cookie dough just like thier mom.

Here they are frosting thier cookies. Jerzee had so much fun helping Kristina make the frosting. Thanks kristina for your big help (cause we know Jerzee did most of it LOL). After we were done grandma took all of the Grandkids to see the Princess and the frog it was such a cute show. I think the kids liked it too. that is the movie Aidan says he wants for christmas (sorry bubbah it wont be out in time for christmas.) Thanks grandma for letting us destroy your house and taking us to the movie.

Congratulations — your baby is full term! This means that if your baby arrives now, his lungs should be fully mature and ready to adjust to life outside the womb, even though your due date is still three weeks away.

Today, I had my Dr's. appt. everything was going well still a 3 and 75 %. and is measuring right on target. well he started to listen to the heart beat and he sat there and waited. and then move to the other side and waited and the put his hand on my to listen to my heart at this time I am freaking out. thinking this can't be happening. and then he said he's heart beat is only 100 and it needs to be 150s. so they took me into another room and put a monitor on to watch the babys heart beat. and it was still 100 and then they put this shocker noise maker on my tummy and he did not like it. so his heart rate went up and then back down. and it kept doing this for 15 minutes. he said if it wouldn't go back up then he will have to send me to labor and delivery and he left and I said a little prayer that everything will be ok. I did not want my baby this early. well the dr. came back in after half a hour and his little heart beat was fine. it was a little scary todays appt. so hopefully my next one will be ok.

36 weeks

Your baby is still packing on the pounds — at the rate of about an ounce a day. He now weighs almost 6 pounds (like a crenshaw melon) and is more than 18 1/2 inches long. He's shedding most of the downy covering of hair that covered his body as well as the vernix caseosa, the waxy substance that covered and protected his skin during his nine-month amniotic bath. Your baby swallows both of these substances, along with other secretions, resulting in a blackish mixture, called meconium, will form the contents of his first bowel movement.

Today, I had my 36 week appt. everything went really well. Baby is measuring really good. He checked to see if the baby was head down and he was. So, that is really good. Also he checked to see if I am dilated and that well guess what to no surprise..........................................I am dilated to a 3 and 75 % effacted yay it is getting closer. I can't believe how quick this pregnancy has gone. I don't think the dr. had anyone like me cause he said He doesn't think I am going to make it all the way to my due date. But I know I will cause it is all like my other pregnancy's. oh well. we will see. I am going to take down when everyone thinks I am going to have baby Jaxon and I will post it on my blog so start guess. date, time, weight, who is he going to look like and all. It will be fun.......

cutting down our christmas tree

Every year as a family we go up past evanstan to cut down our family christmas tree. We had a blast. JC, Grandpa, and Kiel brought up their 4 wheelers and we played on them all day. JC kept saying good thing the hospital is half hour away cause I kept playing on the 4 wheelers. Aidan Loves his uncle JC. They kept playing on it. Aidan did really good. He would hang on good.

 

When we were eating lunch Jerzee layed on Grandpas and wouldn't get off. She is so darn cute. I love her.

We had so much fun when we were done eating lunch Angie got pulled by a 4 wheeler. well she went right over a mouse. I have never seen Angie bail off so fast. it was alive when she hit it. but this is the end results. Well Angie won. LOL

34 Weeks

Your baby now weighs about 4 3/4 pounds (like your average cantaloupe) and is almost 18 inches long. His fat layers — which will help regulate his body temperature once he's born — are filling him out, making him rounder. His skin is also smoother than ever. His central nervous system is maturing and his lungs are continuing to mature as well. If you've been nervous about preterm labor, you'll be happy to know that babies born between 34 and 37 weeks who have no other health problems generally do fine. They may need a short stay in the neonatal nursery and may have a few short-term health issues, but in the long run, they usually do as well as full-term babies.

Today, I had my 34 week apt. and everything went really well. As the Dr. was checking me he was asking how big was my kids and I said 8' 11, 8' 8 and 8' 6. and He said well and Just sat there for a minute and I said WHAT. and he said we are going to be moving your due date. and I thought Really, Crap but I thought S---! He is going to tell me to be pregnant longer. Well to my surprise he moved it up to christmas. AAAHHH.... He said If I even make it to Christmas. He said Jaxon is measuring about 6 pounds. I told my Dr. how Jaxon feels like he is punching my in the you know what. and He said you are probably started to  Dilated we will check you next week. Which is no surprise because the last month of ALL my pregnancys I am Dilated to a 4 and 80 % effacted. WOW Jax is coming quick. We can't wait.

Family pictures

I have been wanting to update my family pictures for a couple of months now. But I have been wanting to wait to until Jax comes. Well I gave in to do it. (I really wanted to update the kids pitcures). We went to sandridge park and had my good friend Jamie help us out. Thank you Jamie for helping out last minute. My kids weren't feeling very good Jerzee and Aidan both have the cold. They turned out good though Here are a couple of them.

We had to get a picture of Baby Jaxon.......
