Exhausted!

Judson seems to be in the habit of skipping his once-a-day nap here
lately ... He made sure and ate though before he conked out in the
highchair on Friday night! Being a bug brother is hard work ...
carrying all those dirty diapers to the trash etc.!

Growing so fast ... Already!

Jentry is growing so fast and getting chubby! She's definitely eating
well! Judson is a great big brother! He loves giving her kisses and
patting her back when it's time for her to burp! :)

What a day! ... Or should I say past 24 hours!

We went ahead and came to Waco last night since we were having to arrive by 6 am for the induction. We stayed in a new hotel behind the new mall area, but Judson was the only one who slept more than 30 minutes at a time! Anxious!

We got to the hospital at 6 am, they started the petocin at 6:59, the doctor broke my water at 8:25, I told them I needed an epidural as soon as the dude was available or I might miss out, he came and did that an eternity later, it only worked on my right side AGAIN, then I told them it was time to push, they called the doctor and she came in in her regular clothes carrying her purse, I pushed for two contractions, and Jentry arrived at 9:57 am!

I definitely think it wasceasier the first time ... Less pain it seemed, but Judson was a pound smaller, so maybe that was it!

I still have not slept a minute since the night before last! I should have been rewarded and gotten to go home the same day! I'm sure I will be up all night ... Judson is tossing and turning over on the itty bitty couch and keeping Jason from sleeping good! Jentry is napping again ... She slept most if the day and decided to wake at 6:45 pm and seems to maybe be down again ... At least until they get her to weigh her in an hour :(

Judson has been a great big brother so far ... He calls her "sister baby" instead of baby sister! :)

33 more hours ...

I am going in on Wednesday, October 7th, at 6 a.m. to be induced and hopefully soon after meet Jentry Brenn! My doctor said they will hook me all up to everything when I get there, then she will break my water at about 8:30 a.m. just like the schedule from back when I had Judson! Hopefully she will come quick like Judson ... who arrived at 11:10 a.m.!!! I would like to have time to get an epidural, but then again ... the one with Judson only worked on my right side so I kind of felt like I got to experience it both ways and totally think I could handle it without one if things progress as fast as last time. It would be another thing if she took much longer than he did to make an appearance.

I am saying a prayer that all goes as smoothly! I really hope to make it to Natalie's baby shower on Saturday too! That might be asking for a bit much but I'm going to be positive for now! :) I would really hate to miss seeing everyone!

I am going to make a guess on the height and weight and go with 7 lbs. 3 oz. and 21 inches! She feels very long and definitely tries to stretch out as much as possible ... we'll see though! Time wise, I'm going with 10:53 a.m. .... now that is a very positive guess-timate! :)
