1 Month Milestone

My little lovebug is 1 MONTH already?!?
That was fast!
I wanted to make him a chalkboard monthly milestone so I worked on it while he napped.

I bought the chalkboard at Hobby Lobby they had a 50% sale

so I got it for only $3.99 & just painted the edge white.
I used Marvy Uchidas Bistro markers as well as regular chalk to decorate the board.

As for his outfit I wanted him to wear suspenders I searched EVERY store that carried childrens clothing by my house & nada! This onesie from Target was the best I could find so I just sewed him a matching bow tie instead.

Voila first month milestone pic! ;)

I also bought him cake but he was too passed out to eat it lololol
So mommy & daddy ate it instead lol ;)

That's all for now! Happy hump day!
Baby laundry is calling my name ;)

Birth Story

Its 3am my new favorite time to be up
Because its usually the time I'm up nursing the new love of my life!
On February 16 my precious bundle of joy arrived weighing in at 7 lbs 4 oz & 21 in 

Meet Reinor.

I can't even believe how quickly hes growing!

Just this morning I had to switch his diapers to a size 1 already!

Reinor came a couple days earlier than my expected due date which was 2/18
On V-day Rein & I went out to dinner we came home around 9pm & shortly after I started feeling weird....around 11 I started to time the pain & thats when I realized OMFG Im having contractions! It was about an hour or so apart. I tried to sleep it off but yeah its kinda hard to do when you are in pain! I woke up at 4:30am took a shower, did some laundry, Rein woke up & was like whats going on?
I told him todays the day! I called the hospital when I was 15 min apart & they told me I had to wait to come in til I was 5 min apart for 1 hour long. When I really couldn't take the pain anymore we went in it was around 4pm 2/15 I was already 4cm dilated.
They had issues finding my veins (story of my life tiny veins problems) & getting the anesthesiologist out of a C section by this time my water also broke while I was in the labor bed. Long story short & 2 hours later by the time they gave me the epidural I was already 7cm & screaming bloody murder in pain!
We waited....and waited til I was 10cm dilated before I started pushing which wasn't til 11:58pm & Reinor came out at 12:53am.
That's my birth story ;)
Moral of the story....Get that epidural
earlier!!! hahaha

 

 

 

Have a good day!
