It's weird to think that if Sydney would not have come early like she did, that today would have been the day that I'd be having her. We'd actually have a few hours old little girl right now.... as the c-section would have been at 7:30 this morning. She would be 4 hours old. Instead, she's almost 4 weeks old. That's just really an odd feeling for me.
I, for one, am very happy that she came early. Granted, it wasn't under the best circumstances, it was insanely scary for us to have to go through, and a lot of worry about if she would be okay being born a month early (which we are thankful beyond belief at how perfect she is) but it all turned out okay. I was absolutely miserable, and had been for about a month when she came. There wasn't a day that I wasn't sidelined with contractions, I ended up with these things called "skin nerves" come through... which to put it mildly, felt like someone was sticking a hot poker through my skin. And while they started just hurting every now and then, by the time I had her, they hurt all day every day. I couldn't go for more then a couple hours without having to go home and rest for the rest of the day. And when I did go to Boise or something one day, I'd be layed up for a day or two being so tired and exhausted. My feet were the size of my house every day... and actually, one night I walked to a friends house for a Mom's Night, and when I went to walk back home, I couldn't even get my shoes back on my feet. Needless to say, I was miserable, and crazy uncomfortable and sooooo thankful she came when she did! I can't even imagine going for another month like that! So for that, Thanks little Miss!! :)

Yesterday was Father's Day. (We hope that everyone had a great day!!!) I was still really sick. Bryant said he didn't mind, because it was a relaxing day. It isn't like we could have went and done anything anyways, as it was POURING rain all day long... but still I felt bad. By the time I got up and came downstairs, he already had the pot roast in the crock pot. That was suppose to be my job... he isn't suppose to be doing dinner on HIS day! Anyhow, we layed around all day, which was fine by me.... but it's just that it was Fathers Day and that bugged me. So I think that once I'm feeling better... (and after payday...haha) I'm going to do a re-do Father's Day for him. Not another present.... but make a good dinner for him, and bake a dessert that he will enjoy. Make it about him, instead of about my being sick. Sounds like a good plan to me. :)
Enough for today, I'm sure. Hope you all have a great week!

We are sooo happy for you guys. Sydda( sorry can't help myself) is just adorable and you know how cute I think Austin is. So glad to see the pics. Hope you feel better soon. I know having Sydney so soon was really odd for you but I also know she came right when she was supposed to. It's so funny, when you have your first baby, you think you couldn't possibly love anyone or anything else. Then the next one comes and your heart expands to lengths you could never have imagined. Congrats again! Kiss the kiddos and tell Bryant we say "Hey". Love ya girly. And in case I haven't told you in a while.... YOU ARE STILL AWESOME IN MY BOOK!
