Old Barn Windows

Hey, I have a bunch of these barn windows in different shapes and sizes. They are so cute for decorating with. Going to sell them for 25$ a piece. If your interested let me know. I'll be coming to IF in August, so I can bring them there too if you want.

OVERLOAD!!!

Here is a look at what we've been up to since I've been a total slacker on the blog lately.

I had the way fun opportunity to go see Wicked with my sisters and Mom.  What a FUN FUN time!!!

One Saturday afternoon Caleb and I took the girls to see the Warhawk Air Museum with some coupons we had!  So glad we had the coupons, because it was a neat place!

Another Saturday afternoon we went down to Julia Davis Park and took the paddle boat swans for a spin.

They were suppose to be cleaning their room....

Adi wanted me to take a picture of her cute hands:)

Still so tired!  So tired in fact, that this time she's asleep on the bathroom counter!

Kadynce is growing wonderfully, and just like her sisters, she LOVES bath time!

3 of my favorite people at the Museum.  They know who's boss ;)

Adelynn had her 2nd year dance recital.  She did tap and ballet this year.  Her favorite still remains ballet.

She loved getting all pretty and done up!

Cool airplane huh Emi?

I must ware my kids out a lot.  Tell me how you could fall asleep on the living room floor with a unicorn horn stuck in your eye?  Must be pretty tired!

Sweet sisters! I love my girls. (I swear that Kynce likes to be held by her sisters...just not for long!)

But she likes to be held my her momma! And momma likes to hold her!

 Kadynce is smiling regularly now.  She's on the verge of giggling, and I can't wait to hear it!

Well there is an update at least!  Now maybe if I do 20 more of these I'd be caught up!



Little Honey

Here are some pictures of my little honey Kadynce. These were taken at 5 days and 10 days old. I should do some more since she is now 3 1/2 weeks old! hehe, I just can't get enough of her!

Here is a couple of pictures of her little footsies with her sisters.  Love these little toes! (Biggest sister Adi's foot is on the left, and Big Sister Emi's foot is on the right.  They are awfully close in comparison!)

The arrival of Kadynce

I haven't had enough time to sit down and document Kadynce' arrival, but I better get to it, because yesterday she turned 2 weeks old!  I'll start at the beginning.  I was suppose to be induced on Friday April 15th at 7am.  I woke up that morning to a phone call at 5:30 telling us that they were too full, they wouldn't be able to induce me.  We were pretty bummed because we'd already taken the girls to Grandma's the night before, and things were planned.  But, they assured us that they would try to get us in at 11.  I never really got back to sleep, but that was OK, because I would just be going in at 11 right?  So later that morning we decided to pack our bags and head to town and wait for 11 while we ate pancakes at IHOP.  Well 11 came and went and they said they were too full, but let's shoot for 1:30.  Then 1:30 came and went, and we were shooting for 3:00.  Needless to say it was a long day, and we didn't get in till 4:00 that afternoon.  By the time labor got going in full swing that evening I was exhausted from just being up all day.  You can tell by this picture!

I was toying back and forth with the idea of doing this one naturally with no epidural.  No reason in particular, just something I was wanting to try.  So Caleb and I were up walking the halls to work through some serious contraction when our nurse came and got us and told us the babies heart rate wasn't doing good, and I had to spend the rest of my labor in bed, and I needed to be put on oxygen. (time for another lovely photo!)

We got babies heart rate stabilized after about and 1 1/2 hours of oxygen and rest.  At this point is was late, and I was emotional and tired and I decided to do an epidural.  The anethesiologist came in and had to do 2 epidurals because the first one didn't go in the right spot, and let me tell you...that is painful!  Then the 2nd one decided to just not work.  Later the nurses told us he was new.  Nice!  Just what we wanted to hear!  Anyway, the shift change for my nurse was at 3am so she checked me at 2:45.  I was a 7.  My new nurse came in at 3:00 and I told her how painful the contractions were, and that there was so much pressure down there I felt sure her head was getting ready to come out!  I said I felt the urge to push, but not super strong yet.  She said she would check me at 3:45 and see where I was at.  I told her I'd like her to check now, and so she said she would even though my other nurse just had.  When she checked, sure enough I was a 10, and complete.  I always seem to come fast at the end.  I did with both my others too.  So, Baby was just waiting on me.  They called my Dr. and I just had a little while to labor down and get ready for pushing time.  My doctor was great when she arrived.  She left the pushing up to me and it was a great experience.  After a bit of pushing, Kadynce Niselle Wall decided to join our family at 4:20 am on April 16th.  I got to lift her up immediately and hold her, and it was beautiful, and she was beautiful. 

She weighed 8lbs and 7oz and was 20 1/2 inches long.  She is completely healthy, and we are so grateful to have her in our home.   

Her sisters couldn't be more thrilled to have a new baby in the family!

She's being showered with lots of love.

The "new" carseat

I guess I was feeling sad that we don't live in our own home anymore and I couldn't re-do a room for the nursery, so I decided to take on the carseat:) I thought it would be a fun quick and easy way to cuten up the carseat. It WAS fun, but it WAS NOT quick and easy! Luckily I was able to enlist the help of my SUPER-SEWING-MOM! I think it turned out cute. Now we're just waiting for a cute baby to put in it!

The cute little flowers that we added for some detail.

Isn't it sweet?  I think so!

Thanks for all your help mommy!

Maternity by Caleb

I've never really taken any maternity pictures, but Caleb offered to do some for me this time.  So I just set the settings and put the focus on manual, and he didn't do too bad:)  Although I have to admit, I am MUCH more comfortable behind the camera, than in front of it.  But, here is a few of the many pictures we got anyway.  We did two sessions, so here is a few from both.

This cracks me up, I really look like I just stuck a basketball up my shirt...hahah!  I'm huge:)

Oh, I'm embarassed to even show this one, I look evil, but Caleb likes it.

This next bunch is session two with my girls.  It was a fun session. Can you tell how much they love their little sister?

Last night I had some pretty good false labor(not surprising, it happened on both my others at about 38 weeks too).  Hopefully it means something is moving along though, we'll see wednesday.  AHHH!  I can NOT wait to have her in my arms, and neither can the girls and Daddy!
