Carson John

So it has been over a week and things are slowing down so I thought I would introduce
Carson John born on Jun 17th (the day AFTER Ashley's birthday thank goodness) at 7:39 pm (which happened to be during halftime of the Final NBA Playoff game so we were able to watch the game and not miss a thing...lol) weighing in at 7 lbs 2 oz, 19 inches, and absolutely perfect! Of course I am going to say that.
The delivery did not go at all how I planned...but that is what I get for planning. At the end of the day Carson was there, I was no longer pregnant, and my whole family was there to share in it (a first since both of my other deliveries were out of state.) Here are a few pictures of our bundle of love and joy!

40 Weeks and 6 Days

and still no baby. This little guy is stubborn just like his Dadddy...ok, and Mommy....and Sister...and Auntie....well, at least he takes after us.
It just stinks waking up every morning in a panic hoping he is still there...still breathing, still alive in my little ol belly (another ok moment...big ol belly). I am sleeping less and worrying more that he is fine in there...I have done more research this past week on induction and c-section. I don't have an opinion on the whole delivery thing....only an opinion on how I deliver. No c-section, no inducing, no pitocin, no epidural....and now I have to actually look at those as options if he doesn't come out on his own soon. Today is Ashley's 8th birthday...and we thought we would have a new born so we have a little family party tonight at our house....we put off the "friend party" because we weren't sure how Carson would be...well, now we know, not here. I clean our house every night just in case it is the night...I want to come home to a clean house. I seriously clean up and shave my legs every day just in case....gotta have pretty legs when I am delivering...lol. Last night I was greatful he got the hiccups because I could tell he was still there...he is so stuffed in there that I don't get a lot of movement from him anymore. Well...here's to hoping my next post will have a picture of a cute healthy baby boy in my arms!

40 Weeks and 1 Day....

And still no Carson. We could say he is shy, stubborn, not fully cooked...either way he will get here when he gets here and in the mean time I will enjoy the World Cup!
