2 Week Check Up

We went for Sadie's 2 week check up on Monday.  She weighed 9.8 lbs and was 20 1/4 inches long! Growing little girl! We are using Dr. Robertson at the Saltillo clinic.  He said she was "growing fabulously".  All good news :)
Tuesday, we had her newborn pictures done with Jill Carter out of Oxford.  She got there around 10 and because of little priss' mood that morning we weren't able to start until around 11:30 or so and it lasted until 2.  I can not wait to see the pictures! Once things got going, she acted perfect and Jill did an amazing job!
Having a newborn in the home is quite an adjustment, one that I am loving more than anything, but definitely an adjustment.  Sleep is a thing of the past.  I haven't slept for more than a 2 hour stretch in almost 3 weeks! Life 110% revolves around HER schedule! No more walking out the door! Its: is she clean? hungry? wet? dirty? do we have diapers/bottle/extra clothes/diaper bag/blanket/burp cloth etc.... ???? But I wouldn't have it any other way!! We fall more and more in love with her every day. I'll leave you with some pictures I have taken lately.....
sweet girl :)
I kiss these cheeks all day every day

Sadie's Grand Debut!

Sadie Lea Tucker made her grand debut March 1st, 2012 at 11:06pm.  When I went for my check up on that Tuesday, February 28th, I was starting to get borderline for preeclampsia/toxemia so Dr.Wonderful (Webb) decided to go ahead and induce on that Thursday.  Tyler and I arrived at the hospital that morning at 6am to get everything started. We got a slow start that day and things didn't move along as we had hoped they would, so around 10:30 pm it was decided that the only way to get her here was to have a c-section.  Things picked up quite dramatically then, with around 20 people in the room doing at least 20 different things, I was quickly moved back to surgery and Sadie made her debut at 11:06pm weighing 8 lbs 6 oz and 19 in long.  She was/is perfect! I think it all scared poor Tyler because once they decide that is what they are going to do, things get moving along pretty swift.  They ended up having to put me to sleep because the epidural wasn't taking so Tyler wasn't able to be in the room with me, poor thing had to sit out all alone just wondering what exactly was happening! It only takes about 15 minutes so it wasn't long before he had the little angel is his arms and everything was okay.  We stayed in the hospital for a few days and went home on Sunday.  Those few days kind of seem like a blur now.  It's like I remember and don't remember a lot all at the same time.  Since we have been home things have been going really good.  We went for her newborn check up today and she has already surpassed her birth weight.  She is up to 8 lbs 6 oz now! Big girl!  Lots of eating and sleeping going on around here these days! Everyone tells you, you never know how much you could love something until you have a child, and they are correct.  My every thought and move concerns her and I couldn't be any happier! We are absolutely in LOVE.

I will probably regret posting this but it shows just how swollen I had gotten!
