Faster than Lightning!!





Well, our little Paige is here, and she came faster than lightning! A quick little run down on her arrival. I started having contractions around 3:00 a.m., woke up Bart to time them, jumped in the bath, started putting on make-up, packed (sortof) a bag, grabbed clothes for my kids, grabbed the kids out of bed and headed to the hospital. Arrived at the hospital at 3:50 a.m., called my mom to come and get Rylee and Cade, asked where the "anasthesi-freakin-ologist" was, and was politely told he was coming from Springville to Timp Hospital. They checked me and I was dialated to a 6-7. Three nurses were rushing as fast as they could to get me situated, and since I tested positive for Group B Strep, they needed to get 2 bags of antibiotics in me. So, they checked me 5 minutes later and I was an 8, at this point I realized the "anasthesi-freakin-ologist" probably was not going to make it! They checked me again 5 minutes later and I was a 9, at which time I looked up to see my OB walk in, he came and checked me, I was a 10. He put on a lab jacket and away we went! Me screaming like the ladies on TLC's a Baby Story, even though I have always said I would never do that! After 3 pushes, she was born at 4:24 a.m.. She is beautiful with a head full of dark hair! We love you Paigey, and even though you came a little too fast for my liking, we are sure glad you are here!

Paige Elizabeth

Beautiful baby girl!!!

Baby Paige!!

Paige Elizabeth joined our family at 4:24 am Friday. She weighed in at 6lbs 7oz 19 1/2 inches long with beautiful dark hair. She came al natural. Not by choice but by the mere fact that there was no anesthesiologist present.

Pedicure by Rylee and Cade






The other night I went with Shauna and my mom to get a pedicure and go to dinner. Well, I had just had a pedicure so I didn't get one, but I was telling Rylee and Cade how I really love them! Well, they decided to take matters into their own hands, and give me a special pedicure. Next thing I know, they had the lotions, fingernail polish and remover, stickers for my toes, etc. As you can see, it didn't stop at the toes, they wanted to paint my legs! So, I let them use Crayola markers and decorate my legs as well. They absolutely had a ball, and really felt they had done a great service to me. :)

I must say, the rubbing of my legs and feet really did feel pretty good. Rylee even took it a step further and massaged my shoulders and back. WoW, I am lucky...next time I will save the $30 and have a home job!
