Wow! I haven't updated our blog since we announced our pregnancy in September... As you can guess we have been a bit busy. Anyway, JosLynne Millre Thomson made her debut on March 1st 2010 @ 4:30pm. She weighed in at 7lb 8oz and didn't look anything like we expected! After having McCoy @ 5lb 7oz and Allie @ 8lb 11oz, I welcomed a normal sized baby! Brian was a proud Papa as always and one of my most favorite things in the world is watching him with our newborn children.
Once we made it home from the hospital we were busy trying to adjust to life with 3 children and the battle continues on still! JosLynne became jaundiced, as have all of our children, and we began photo-therapy when she was 3 days old and continued for about 10 days. She is still yellow at just over a month old, but our doctor thinks after a couple months her levels will return to normal, we hope she won't be an Oompa Loompa forever! She has some reflux... Okay that was a lie, she has A TON of reflux, and she spits out her nose, sometimes her nose and her mouth, but mainly her nose! We were a little worried that she was aspirating it at first however she seems to have that under control now, and her lungs are sounding clear. As long as she is on medication, it's manageable and we only go through 2-3 burb rags a day!
As for looks, she is a little McCoy, and he couldn't be more proud! I can't believe how much she resembles him as a baby. Once and a while she pulls an Allie face, and the older she gets I see a lot of Brian in her too! She is growing like a weed and we can't imagine our little family without her. She is spoiled rotten, and loves to be held! I swore my children would never sleep in our bed, but she nestles right in between us every night! She is by far our most spoiled baby! I find the days passing by quickly and I rarely get much done besides snuggling with Jos! Somebody told me that I won't regret it and I've taken that to heart, the dishes can always wait, right?
It's hard to believe that I will be returning to work in less than a month and life will trudge on as if nothing had changed. For now I think I'll just enjoy my time at home and try not to think about my children growing up before my eyes!
