Baby's Here!!!!

Here is my sweet boy! Isnt he pathetic.

Corbyn is the proudest big brother...Blake is a little more clueless.

Here's Jaxon gettng his first bath, had to wash all that hair.


Man, I really looked like crap after I came out of surgery.



Jaxon at the hospital......



Its the proud papa snuggling with his boy....


This is Blake right after he was born, the poor thing got pretty beat up during delivery, it was pretty rough.


Here he is chillin, which is pretty much all he does.

Here we are in the operating room right after he was born....



Jaxon MaKay Syrett was born on Saturday March 7th at 4:06pm. He weighed in at 8lbs 6oz and was 20.5 inches long. His coming was quite a surprise for anyone that knows my history. I went to my doctors appointment last Thursday and Dr Gatherum said nothing had changed, I had not dilated or anything, which was not a surprise for us cause I never do and have to have c-sections anyway. SO I went home with a c-section planned for the 13th of march. When I got home that night I was helping last rearrange our room and suddenly felt like I peed my pant just a little . I didnt think anything of it cause I stopped after that. Then the next night Friday, it happened again a few times. Saturday morning Lance panicked and told me to call my doctor so I did and they said I might be leaking fluid so we got all ready and packed for us and the kids just in case we were going to stay, which we didnt really think would happen. We dropped the kids off at Lance's parents and headed over to Cedar. The ran some tests and the test came back that it was negative for fluid, so we thought that we were going home and the nurse said that my doctor wanted me checked just to be safe. She checked me and found I was dilated to a 2, 90% effaced and really thin, and for someone that had never gone into labor on my own I was shocked. Then the contractions started to get worse. They did an ultrasound and found that my fluid was quite low and that I probably did have a slow leak of fluid, I just hadnt leaked enough that day to detect it. So about an hour later, I was wheeled in and had my c-section done. It was quite a surprise, but a very happy one. Jaxon is the sweetest baby ever. I keep thinking he will wake up and show his true colors but he is just content to be.

Ok, he looked like he had gone 10 rounds in the picture of him on the scale...do you think that bruising will go away?? I would be very worried and check with your Dr. often to make sure everything is ok. Hmm, hmm Nutz. He looks like a mix of Aimee and Corbyn. Ok, how is that bruising?? Is it getting better yet. How are his fingernails?
