2 Week Milestones!

Yesterday Delaney turned 2 weeks old and we had a GREAT check up at the doctor!  She weighed 8 pounds, 6 ounces and was 21.5 inches long.  The doctor was extremely happy with her growth and said that everything looked fantastic! Her umbilical cord fell off before we left the doctor so she was able to take her first real bath last night!  She actually enjoyed it and never even fussed!  :)  I have included some pictures... I think she has changed so much in 2 weeks!  It is amazing!

Clean Baby!!! :)

Our First Week!

After a long labor and delivery I am pleased to say that we are home and everyone is healthy!  This is all I have been praying for the last 9 months.  Delaney Jordyn joined us on Tuesday, November 30th at 2:37pm, weighing 7 pounds, 12 ounces and 21 inches long!  We were able to go home from the hospital on Thursday afternoon without any complications and for those of you who know me well, know this was a miracle in itself! :)

We have already made our first trip to the pediatrician, had our first bath at home, slept in our swing, bouncer, bassinet and crib! She is a great eater and sleeper!!  We definitely have our fussy times but over all I think she is an amazing baby... but maybe I am a little biased!  I never imagined the first week would be so much fun and that we would see so much of her little personality so quickly.

Drew has been amazing and being a daddy comes so naturally to him.  I count my blessings every day! 

Thank you to everyone who has come to see us, called, emailed, text messaged and facebooked!!!  Delaney has an amazing support group to stand by her as she grows.  We love all of you!!

Here are a few pictures of our first week...

Blessed...

At this point I feel like we are just sitting around, waiting for something to happen!  All of our hospital bags are packed, the car seat is in my car, the house is spotless and the only thing missing from the nursery is a precious little princess!  Yesterday my doctor said everything still looked good but not much progress.  We have an ultrasound scheduled for November 24th (next Wednesday) and if everything looks good then we will probably schedule to induce on the 28th-29th!

The last week has been very emotional.  Everyday I hold my breath to find out what the news of the day will be... everything from one friend's cancer removal, to another friend's miscarriage, to my BF's car wreck, to 3 new babies being born!  God has been very busy listening to all my prayers.  Right now, Drew and I just feel extremely blessed!  We will celebrate our 4th anniversary on Thursday and then wait for Miss Delaney to make her grand entrance.  No matter what happens, I know that I have the most wonderful husband in the world and we are strong enough together to make it though anything. 

"Trust in the Lord with all your heart

and lean not on your own understanding;

in all your ways acknowledge him,

and he will make your path straight."

Proverbs 3:5

Check Up...

Well, I went for my first "weekly" check up yesterday and everything looks good! I have swelling in my hands and can't get my engagement ring on but the doctor assures me that is normal.   :(  Everything feels like it is actually starting to come together.  We have maternity pictures on Saturday and the last shower on Sunday!  After that, we will be in the patient process of waiting... YEAH RIGHT!  I am trying to enjoy the last few weeks and not wish them away but we are very excited and it is hard to not get overly anxious in the final days!  I go back to the doctor on the 10th!! More updates to come...

Nursery Pics!!!!

Here are pictures from Miss Delaney's room!! My Mom painted her name on the wall (I know... she's amazing), we both painted the furniture, my Mamaw made the curtains, I made the lamp and wall decor and Drew even helped with the painting and hanging! It was a total group effort but I LOVE that everything is original!!!! Even the blankets on the chair are handmade (thank you Mamaw and Heather)!!!  We are really excited and hope you enjoy the pics!!! Now all we need is a precious little girl to go in it!!!  Thank you Mom, Mamaw and Drew for the endless hours of work... I think it turned out just as we hoped it would!!

33 Weeks!

Today we are 33 weeks along... let the count down begin!! I have already had one fantastic baby shower in Oklahoma and can't wait for the next one this Sunday!  We are so blessed to have such an amazing support group of friends and family who have already started spoiling this little girl rotten!  Delaney will no doubt be blessed with the same love that Drew and I have experienced. :)

24 Week Ultrasound!

This is the day we found out we needed to be planning for lots of pink!
