A CHLOE FIRST...

THIS MORNING AFTER I CHANGED CHLOE SHE WANTED TO PUT HER PJ SHORTS BACK ON HERSELF. SHE STRUGGLED FOR A BIT BUT SHE DID IT...... THEY ARE INSIDE OUT AND BACKWARDS BUT SHE STILL TECHNICALLY PARTIALLY DRESSED HERSELF. SHE IS GETTING SO BIG IT'S CRAZINESS! ALSO YESTERDAY WE TOOK AWAY THE BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE. THIS IS WHAT SHE CALLS HER BINKI AND IT'S VERY DRAMATIC BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE. I DECIDED SHE WAS WAY TOO BIG FOR IT AND I'M SICK OF LOOKING FOR IT. I SHOULD HAVE TAKEN IT AWAY AWHILE AGO BECAUSE IT'S THE SADDEST THING WHEN SHE LOOKS AT ME WITH HER BIG BROWN EYES POINTING TO HER BIG POUTY LIPS AND SAYS MOMMY BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE WITH TEARS COMING OUT HER EYES. IT BREAKS MY HEART... SHE'LL GET OVER IT BWAHAHAHAHA

MY LABOR STORY

HEATHER WANTED A LABOR STORY... HERE YA GO! IT'S SUPER BORING BUT I GUESS THAT'S PRETTY LUCKY ON MY END. I'LL TRY TO MAKE IT INTERESTING.

LET'S SEE ALMOST 2 WEEKS AGO ON 6/9/09 TUESDAY AFTERNOON I WAS AT WORK.. I HAD GONE PEE LIKE 1000 TIMES AND EVERYTIME WAS HELL TO WALK TO THE BATHROOM. I WAS WALKING LIKE A FROG CUZ I WAS IN SO MUCH PAIN ALL DAY AND THE NIGHT BEFORE. FINALLY ABOUT 1:30 I CALLED MY MIDWIFE AND TOLD HER I WAS SO MISERABLE I COULD BARELY WALK AND I HAD BEEN HAVING LOTS OF PAINS. SHE TOLD ME TO COME INTO LABOR/DELIVERY AND CHECK IN. SO I TOLD MY BOSS I WAS LEAVING TO THE HOSPITAL AND I WANTED TO LEAVE ON THE DOWN LOW CUZ I WASN'T SURE WHAT WAS GOING ON. I CALLED KENNETH AND LUCKILY HIS WORK IS JUST DOWN THE STREET FROM ME. I DROVE TO HIS WORK AND THEN HE DROVE US UP TO THE U. THEY CHECKED ME OUT AND SAID I WAS DILATED TO A 2 BUT IT WASN'T ENOUGH... SO THEY SENT US HOME....
WE JOKED ON THE WAY HOME AND SAID "WATCH, WE WILL GET HOME AND MY WATER WILL BREAK" WE GOT HOME AROUND 5ISH.. WE WENT NEXT DOOR TO HIS PARENTS ABOUT 6:30 TO EAT. THEN CHLOE GOT OUT OF CONTROL CRAZY SO I ATE A FEW NUGGETS AND WALKED HOME WITH HER TO PUT HER ORNERY SELF DOWN FOR A NAP. SHE ASKED FOR SPONGEBOB SO I GOT UP TO PUT SPONGEBOB IN AND WALA! WATER BREAKS!!!!! THIS IS ABOUT 7 O'CLOCK.. TWO HOURS AFTER WE GOT HOME FROM THE FREAKIN HOSPITAL...
SO I CALLED KEN AND TOLD HIM MY WATER BROKE. HIM AND HIS MOM WALKED OVER AND HIS MOM GOT CHLOE AND WE HEADED TO THE U! THIS TIME WITH GUARANTEED BABY TIME. ABOUT 10PM I ASKED FOR THE EPIDERAL WHICH TOOK HER LIKE 45 MINUTES TO STAB ME CORRECTLY. SHE FINALLY HAD TO CALL IN ANOTHER DR CUZ SHE KEPT STABBING BONE. HE STUCK IT RIGHT IN, SHOOK MY HAND AND SAID CONGRATS AND LEFT. NOW WHERE WAS HE 45 MINUTES BEFORE THAT?

SO THEN ABOUT MIDNIGHT THEY OFFERED SOME OF THAT STUFF THAT SPEEDS YOUR LABOR UP, WE SAID WHY NOT... THEN 4 HOURS AND ABOUT 20 MINUTES LATER I STARTED FEELING LOTS OF PRESSURE DOWN THERE. I BEEPED FOR MY MIDWIFE, SHE CAME IN THEN THEY STARTED HAVING ME PUSH. A FEW MINUTES LATER KEN GOT GHOSTLY WHITE AND THEY HAD TO BRING IN THE OXYGEN TANK AND HAVE HIM SMELL SOME NASTY SMELLY STUFF TO SNAP HIM OUTTA OF THE DIZZY SPELL.. K I'M NOT GONNA LIE, I LAUGHED WHILE THIS WAS HAPPENING. I TOLD THE NURSES HE MUST HAVE WANTED SOME ATTENTION TOO! HAHA WHAT A WUSS. JK BABE. SO THEN WHEN HE FEELING BETTER I STARTED PUSHING AGAIN. AT 4:42 LEAH POPPED OUT AND THEY HANDED HER TO ME. AWWWW TENDER MOMENT! SO SORRY TARA YOU HAD SUCH A HORRIBLE LABOR BUT I'M JUST SAYING I THINK I GOT IT EASY SINCE I PRETTY MUCH THREW UP EVERYTHING I ATE AND COULDN'T EVEN DRINK WATER FOR THE PAST 9 MONTHS! SO THERE YOU ALL GO...

CHLOE'S FIRST NIGHT WITH LEAH

LAST NIGHT WAS OUR FIRST NIGHT WITH CHLOE AND LEAH TOGETHER! CHLOE HAS BEEN CAMPING WITH GRANDMA AND GRANDPA BURKE DOWN IN FERRON SINCE LAST FRIDAY. KEN AND I HAD A NICE PEACEFUL WEEKEND SINCE ALL THE BABY DOES IS EAT AND SLEEP. WE ARE SO LUCKY HOW GOOD OF A BABY SHE IS. SHE EATS HER HAND WHEN SHE GETS HUNGRY AND REALLY JUST CRYS WHEN I CHANGE HER.

I STARTED MISSING CHLOE A TON ON SUNDAY NIGHT. EVEN THOUGH WE MISSED HER TONS IT WAS PERFECT TIMNG FOR LEAH TO BE BORN AND HAVE THE INLAWS TAKE CHLOE CAMPING SO WE COULD COME HOME AND RELAX. IT WAS A REALLY GOOD NIGHT, I THOUGHT CHLOE WOULD BE MORE JEALOUS AND DEMANDING BUT SHE WASN'T. LEAH WOKE UP AT 1AM TO EAT THEN AGAIN AT 5. THE 2ND TIME CHLOE HEARD LEAH AND SHE WANTED IN OUR BED SO I LET HER CRAWL IN WHILE I FED LEAH. AFTER SHE ATE I JUST KEPT HER IN THE BED TOO. I WAS A LITTLE SQUISHED BUT THAT'S OKAY I HAVE THE NEXT 2 MONTHS OFF WORK SO I'LL GET PLENTY OF REST I'M SURE.
