Where does the time go???


I can't believe it has already been 3 weeks! Well, we welcomed Marissa into the world on May 2nd as you all know. She was born at 8:36am, 8 lbs 5oz, and 20" long. She had some breathing problems and had some x-rays taken and some blood work done. They couldn't find the cause and then it just worked out on it's own, so no worries. She is doing very well and looks so beautiful!


They had some problems with finding veins on me so I had 5 pokes for an IV and 3 Spinals! Then blood work done and then a MMR shot! So 10 pokes by the time I left! We came home Sunday night (the 4th).


Thank you to all who came to welcome Marissa to the world! We enjoyed seeing everyone!

Everyone keeps asking how she is sleeping. Well, let me just say, "like a baby". (So NOT good) Who ever came up with that phrase, like its a good thing, didn't have a baby! She sleeps 3 hours then 1 hour then 1 hour then 1 and a half hours... err, I miss my sleep. LOL!


Brody loves her so much! He is always kissing and hugging her and asking to hold her. I couldn't have asked for a nicer brother for her. He says he can't wait for her to get older so he can show her all his toys and how to go potty.


We had her pictures taken and here is a link to see them. We will get them back June 2nd. http://portraits.olanmills.com/ecard_view.asp?ecard_id=13820952
