Alright so it has been awhile since I have come on here and blogged but I guess that's what happens when you have a newborn! We are finally settling into life, the three of us. Addisyn has been such a blessing and we are enjoying every minute of her (even at 2:00 in the morning). Everyday she changes so much! I feel like I need to enjoy every second because I already feel like she is growing so quickly. Overall she has been doing great. We have had a couple of pretty much sleepless nights but she has been doing better now. Last night she slept in 4 hour spurts which means I got some much needed sleep as well.
She had her two week check up and is doing fantastic. At their 2 week appointment they like them to weigh what they weighed at birth or more and she weighed in at 8 pounds 2 ounces which is great (she was 7;15 at birth). She is getting some cute pudgy checks and baby rolls...I love it! We took her for a hip ultrasound because the pediatrician said with breech babies their hips are not always in the socket so she wanted to be sure...everything came back great so we were happy about that. I went in for my 3 week post-op check up and my incision is healing great. It is amazing how you can hardly even see a scar! Having a c-section really was not as bad as I had anticipated...don't get me wrong it was definitely painful but I felt I was able to bounce back pretty quickly.
Last week Carmen came to visit and we were so excited she was able to make the trip up here. She did Addisyn's newborn pictures and they are absolutely amazing! The pictures are priceless and are something we will cherish forever and it was so special that a close friend was the one who was able to capture these special pictures...we love you Carmen! Thanks again for everything!
We are thrilled that Brant, Teresa and Maddox are coming to visit tomorrow! We are so excited to spend time with them and have them meet Addisyn.
Last night Bryan and I went out for the first time just the two of us since Addisyn was born. My parents took her for a couple of hours so we could go to dinner and celebrate our anniversary. We had a great time and were so happy we could get some time the two of us. After being gone for 3 hours we were both ready to get back home and see her :) It's funny how life changes lol.
Sorry this is getting kind of long winded, it has just been awhile and so much has happened in the last three weeks. I know I am still missing a bunch of things but at least it is somewhat of an update.
We just want to thank all of our family and friends for their love and support at this exciting time. We are so blessed with such wonderful people in our lives and are so thankful for everything that everyone has done for us. We love you all! I will hopefully get better about updating now that we are getting into a little more of a routine.
