4 Months!!!

I can't believe it has already been 4 months since the little guy was born! I remember it like it was yesterday. When Rhyder's went to his 4 months doctors appointment they said he is 14 pounds 12 ounces and 26 inches long! He is 50% in weight and 90% in height!! He is going to be one tall skinny guy just like his daddy. She said he has a prefect round head with lots of hair and is very healthy!

GrOwInG fAsT!!

When your pregnant the baby can't get here fast enough and when they are here they grow to fast you cant remember them being so tiny and there birth weight, they just get bigger and bigger each day and more and more active! Rhyder is growing so fast! He has started eating baby food and loves it. He's been eating apples, pears, peaches (cant tell if he likes peaches) sweet potatoes and on Thanksgiving he will try green beans, carrots, and squash. He has sat up a few times by himself and loves to stand! He has a jumperoo which is a lot like a saucer but it has no bottom so he can jump. We no longer have to put the wii board under it because he can touch the ground without it... I love being a mom and am so sad he is getting so big so fast! Can't he just slow down!!!!!!!!!

Moving...

Well here shortly we are moving for the second time in 3 months... I know ridiculous!!!! But, we are! Although this time I am very excited, we are going to rent a house in South Jordan, UT it is a 5 bedroom 3 bath in a circle for a killer deal!!! We couldn't ask for a better deal (thanks Jeaniel) I can't wait to decorate the house! We are going to try and rent out the basement to someone we know... the reasoning is that my husband is going to start a new job and will most likely work night... I HATE being home alone especially at nights! We can have Bo (our dog) living with us and Rhyder will be able to play with him!! Then hopefully one day we can get our own house but for now this will work!!!

Rhyder

He is now 3 months old and getting so big! Rhyder is getting so big! At his last doctor's appointment he was 11 lbs, 8 oz and 23" long, I cant wait to see what he is at the end of November we have his 4 months appointment! He has started laughing and smiling so much! I hate to admit it but he is totally a daddy's boy! Ben can get him to laugh and smile at any time! It is cute to watch, the last 3 months has been the best ever! Ben is such a great dad! Rhyder can hold his head up by himself and loves sleeping on his stomach! He is such a character and so much fun! He has started teething!!

Expecting Rhyder

After taking 4 take home pregnancy tests. On November 24, 2009 we finally went to the doctors and found out that we were expecting and my due date was July 13, 2010! We were both so excited and in shock. But, at the same time we didnt know how, when or where to tell everyone. We told our family and friends in all different ways and places Well about 12 weeks pregnant they changed my due date to July 25, 2010:D When I was about 15 weeks we couldn't wait to know what we were having any longer we had to find out! We went to fetal foto in south towne mall and found out it was a BOY!!!! When he started kicking and moving around was the coolest feeling! When I was about 6 months along I was driving to work and got in a car accident, I had to go to the hospital and get a stress test and monitored for about 6 hours. It was a long 40 weeks, appointment after appointment we kept getting told he was ready to come and growing so good! When time finally came well... the little bugger didn't want to come! After trying everything to make him come (even jumping on the tramp) On Monday July 26th I went to the doctors and was told I was not dialted or anything! :( That was so devastating I cried! Well later that night I was grocery shopping with Ben when I got a call from my doctors and was told she was worried about the fluid I was leaking and that she was worried about me, she asked if I could come to the hospital the next morning for a stress test and ultrasound. Since Ben had work i had my mom take me to the hospital. They hooked me up to the stress test and then did the ultrasound, the doctor came in and said it was probably not going to be today. Then... the ultrasound came back and I barely had any amniotic fluid... THEY ARE INDUCING ME!!!! I was so excited and all my emotions were so mixed and flowing like no other, I wanted to scream, cry, laugh, smile and everything! I called Ben and told him the good news, they gave me a cervadil and told us that I would need about 4 of those pills, I would get one every 4 hours then after the last one I would get patocin and have him later Wednesday night. Well the little man came on July 28, 2010 at 10:36 he was 8 pounds and 8 ounces and 21" long! We were both healthy and doing good.

We spent that night in a hotel down town and then headed up to park city for our honeymoon, while we were up there Ben got so sick... In November we went to Hawaii with my mom and family the whole time we were there I felt funny... Turns out I was pregnant!
