Silly Boy

While I was on the floor with the girls taking pictures, some of the boys starting acting like, well, boys. This one was rolling all over the floor like a steamroller.

I think this shot is funny because it's the kind of pose you'd usually see in a picture of a small baby just learning how to lift his head of and crawl. Instead, you see this large fourth grader. :)

Just a family shot.. it will be my birthday tomorrow and Cody will be 1 the day after.. I always try to sneak in some togetherness.. even if they are just quick snapshots :)

Even Anubis squeezed into the picture. Ryan really wanted to hold him, even if he looks pissy, this is the first 'complete' family picture I suppose, haha :)

Best Picture Ever!

Who's in there? Baby Jack! About 6:30 am, still fresh and clean, makeup on, hair did, thinking this is easy stuff. They are just about to start the inducement with pitocin. After the pitocin, the contractions kept coming and coming and got stronger and stronger until they had to turn the meds off because they were coming every 45 seconds or so. All the time, I was still only at 2 to 3 centimeters. THe nurses felt sorry for me and gave me a little something for pain, it did not last, finally the epidural doctor came and tried twice to give me the shot.. He had to go again and finally got the epidural in. THen after all that crap, 12 hours later I was still at a 3 and not effaced all the way. A C-section at 7:30 finally brought the boy into the world. Sadly, the staff didn't even bring him to me until 10:30pm 3 hours later. How sucky is that? But boy was he worth the wait.
