More Pictures

Well here are some more pictures we just had my sister take. She is amazing! I love them all.














I just love this picture of my hubby and Bronson.. arent they so handsome? Such a tender moment. My husband is such a great father, and I honestly do not know what I would do without his help! Thanks Taylor!








Thanks again Ashley! I don't have anything to interesting to write about, all my days are the same! It pretty much consists of feeding him, changing poopy diapers, getting peed on, crying, sleeping, cuddling, playing, laughing, and just loving my little man. Despite all the lack of sleep, and frustration sometimes.. I do love being a mom! My life is completely different, and I guess I never really knew how much my parents loved me until now. Me and Taylor feel so blessed to have Bronson in our family. He brings such joy, and is so funny! We say he is like a fire becuase we can sit and stare at him for hours! He is always going cross-eyed and going bright red from constipation, and cracks the funniest smiles. He is such a crazy little guy, he is ALWAYS moving.. seriously! He is so strong, and loud, I have a feeling we may go nuts when he starts to talk and walk! My mom says he takes after me:) I may have my work cut out for me. Uh oh. I am still getting used to being home all day, and not working. But it has been a great break. I must say thank you to all my friends, co-workers, and family for coming to visit me, or letting me come hang out! Its great to have so much support. Life is so good:)

FINALLY.. I have a blog!

Well I finally joined the rest of the world.. I have a blog! Ha ha.. Thanks to Alisha for starting it for me.. I think she got sick of not knowing what I am doing with my life! My life has been a bit hectic lately. I went in to have Bronson on Monday June 29th.. (yes my Birthday) I went in at 8:30a.m and had my water broke. We thought it would be a fast process, but it SO was not! They started my pitocin, and all day I was not dilating any faster, and things were going very slowly. We knew something was wrong, and we asked the nurse a few times and she told us everything was working fine... well at about 7:00 p.m my doctor came in and told me the petocin was not on the whole time!! Which was why I was not progressing! Needless to say, I was not a happy person!! I was STARVING for one, actually famished, and I was so exhausted. The nurse totally screwed up and did not pay attention to the pitocin at all.. so anyways after 15 hours of labor, they decided it was too dangerous to keep going. He was in the birth canal for too long, and he was faced up, and his cord kept getting pinched off. So at 11:40 they said we need to go now, and so we went. Oh and by now my epidural was wearing off, and I couldnt get the spinal tap.. so I was not drugged up properly. The c-section went ok, and he was born at 12:14 am.. not on my Birthday.. we have joked the whole pregnancy that he is already stubborn- like me:) He just had to have his own Birthday!!! I started to hemmorage so they had to hurry and give me more petocin. Yep.. I then had full blown labor contractions after my c-section with a new incision!! I screamed for about an hour, it was absolutely ridiculous.. thought I was dying. It took two shots of morphine, and some other major drug to put me to sleep. So I did not get to enjoy the baby til the morning. But I did live, and we left the hospital on friday. We have had so much fun getting to know Bronson, but it has been a little harder than expected with me healing and all. I do just want to throw out a special THANK YOU to my mothers, sisters, ward, friends, and family for all the help they have given me. I have been waited on, cooked for, and had Bronson taken care of at all times and I truly appreciated everyones help, love and support. I have taken the past week to sit back and really count my blessings. I especially need to tell my husband Taylor that I appreciate him so much. He has done everything for me, and Bronson. I love him so much, and am so grateful I have such a loving, caring hubby:) It has been my favorite part by far to see him interact with the baby, there are so many tender moments between the two of them, and it always makes me cry! Anyways this is really long, but I just wanted to update everyone!! I will hopefully update often, but this mothering thing is hardwork! But so worth it:)

Here is just a few of the pictures my sister took, along with the one at the very top:) She is so talented, and her photography business is really taking off. If you want to see a few more of Bronson look at her website milesofmemories.blogspot.com, and there are a few from the hospital on her personal website. But I must say isn't this picture so sweet? I love him.
