Introducing Cassidhe Ann.




Well, we are home, and mama is starting to feel a little normal again. Yay for that. Cassidhe was born on Thursday and it was a pretty normal delivery for me. I was actually having good contractions and needed to breathe through a lot of them towards the end. Now if you do not know that is not normal for me, I normally don't have hard contractions at all. It is kind of a surprise when the baby is ready to make it's entrance into this world. Not this time. They started potosin (spelling?) at 8:00 a.m., 10 o'clock doc came and did the water, and at 2:00 p.m. baby was here, and I called it too. The doctor asked me when I thought she would be born and I went off my last delivery, which was about 6 hours, so I was right. Wish I would have put some money on that. She was an easy delivery for the most part, and the nurses and doctor were a little more prepared this time since last time they all saw how fast I delivered. So here she is, our little Cassie.

A few updates!!!

Since my last post, it has been a while, I can totally understand when my friend told me that her blog was not the only thing being neglected during her last pregnancy. I cannot seem to get motivated for anything for the last couple of months. I seem so tired, and all I WANT to do is lay around, much to my husbands dismay. He is taking it all well, helping where he can, and when he is feeling well enough to help. Anyway, Thursday the 17th is the big day. I will go into the hospital to be induced at 8 a.m. and I am very excited!!! I am glad the day is right around the corner. The no smoking bit the dust on day 24 now I am trying to get myself back on that horse again, and it is a struggle right now too. I think the 2 days in the hospital will help, I will take my patches and take advantage that 3 of the 4 kids will not be around. Pray for my husbands sanity. He is taking 2 weeks off work, FMLA, to stay home after the baby is born. That will be good I think. He could use the break from work and hopefully being around all of us for 2 weeks won't make him too crazy. So that is the short of it. I will post pics after the baby is born so everyone can see. Until then, Ciao.
