Baby Pictures

So I look a little bit better in this picture than I did when I had Daniel so I thought I would post it. This was just the next morning after the c-section which was at 11:50pm. And incase you were wondering I have a pack of ice on my neck because I was so blasted hot!

We didn't have a camera with use when we went to the hospital so we didn't take any pictures until Mark mom came. Thanks for the rescue Susan!!!

Daniel's first picture with Jake where he didn't scream and run away!

Jake Gordon Babcock 8lbs 20.5 in. 9/14/09 11:50pm

So Jake has arrived. Last Monday, the 14th, I was feeling sick with a headache and cough and nastiness. So I went into my OBGYN and I saw the PA who was going to put me on some antibiotics and send me home but I complained that my back was hurting so he called in the Dr. to pop my back and when the Dr. came in he couldn't get it to pop and I was so uncomfortable. That is when he asked if I was having contractions and I said "uh...I dunno know" so he sent me to the hospital for a Labor check. When we got there they hooked me up to the machines and found that Jake's heart rate was not looking good. It was way too high and didn't fluctuate enough so they immediately put me on antibiotics and fluid to try to make him better and after a few hours it worked but I was still having irregular contractions and my previous incision was hurting so they decided to give me a c-section to prevent a possible rupture. That is how our day went and how we got our little Jake. Amazingly enough I only was in the hospital for 3 days and I am doing better than I thought I would. I'll put some pictures up later but Blogger won't let me do it right now.

We Have A Name!!!

But we're not telling!

Mark and I finally decided on a name for Howard (womb name). We have had a list for a while but until recently we didn't really want to settle on any of them. We still could change our minds last minute so we will wait to tell everyone until he is here. Until then here are some more pictures from my sister's wedding...I am still waiting for pictures from Mark's brother's wedding.

Delivery Plans...

So I don't have a new official due date but we will do a c-section on or about the 23rd of Sept. if he hasn't come by then. So pray for us that our little Howard (that is his womb name) will decide to come before then and that I don't have do end up having a c-section. (In my dreams right?) Anyways, all the wedding and mission stuff is over with as of today. My brother went into the MTC today and things should start to slow down. I couldn't help but post this picture of him at my sister's wedding last weekend... this is totally his funny personality that I will miss. So with all this free time we have now anyone up for a movie night or anything?

We should really decide on a name...

Trenton Lee Babcock?.... our little guy was 3lbs 11 oz. 2 weeks ago when we had this ultra sound. Everything looks great and I go back tomorrow and hopefully we will get more details on when I'll have him.

New Due Date?

So I went to my appointment on Monday and while there the PA measured me and I am still 2 weeks ahead, so I asked if I could get an ultra sound (I'll scan those pictures ASAP) to check the due date and I am measuring 11 days early according to the ultra-sound. Potentially then my due date could be September 19th and I could be having a baby by early September if they induce me early so I can try for a VBAC. All these ifs are making my head spin. Oh well, hopefully our next appointment with the doctor in 2 weeks we will find out more delivery details. Stay tuned...

Update

So if we thought our summer would be boring and easy since Mark is able to work from home then we were wrong!!! We have been so busy with family reunions and 2 weddings. Mark's brother Tim is getting married to a great girl... Ariel, and my sister is marrying a guy named Justin that has been her friend (and our families are still friends) since they were like both 15 (sweet isn't it?). Oh and they are getting married a week apart from each other. So apart from getting ready for our little guy to make his appearance (I think he will be born mid Sept.) we are also running around attending events for our siblings.
July- 4 birthdays, Conner's endowments, Baby's room (we want it ready before we don't have time with all the wedding stuff)
August- Corinne's bridal shower in Pocatello, 3 birthdays, Tim's wedding in Washington, Corinne's endowments & wedding in Rexburg, Conner's farewell and mission
September-BABY!!!
Ahhhh! I love being busy though and it will make time go by faster. We couldn't be happier for our siblings. Oh and I love all of my friends but I am sorry I am not very social lately... busy.
