So I had Lauren Kelani chouinard on March 27th at 12:05pm She was 6lbs and 15.5 ounces and was 19.5 inches long.
She was the cutest thing ever. She had a touch of trouble breathing and they almost took her to the NICU , they gave her tons of oxygen and she finally started to do good on her own. We stayed in the hospital for two days. Daddy did not get to see her be born because it went by so fast and we could not get him on Face time fast enough. I did chat with him on viber as soon as she was out. He was so excited and so was I. Although it was a happy yet sad moment for me.. It hit me all at once... My husband is in the phillipines and I just had our third baby.
We have gotten through almost 3 months so almost half way done and it just seems to go by slow some days... like its only three months! and other days its like wow we are down three months! We only have three left to go! Now that Lauren is here time flies... She was doing so good then all of a sudden she started to get Gassy at night and fussy .. last night I only got an hour sleep and I am so exhausted. My in laws go home May 9th and that is about 2 weeks away. So I will be on my own with three kids and to tell you the truth I am very excited about that! I am so ready to be on our own. I take the kids out all three of them all bymyself very often and its not that bad. Bryan is such a big helper he loves his sister so much and always wants to touch her or hold her or help her by giving her bottle to her.
Alex loves to say its ok Lauren when she cries and tell her coochie coochie coo! and tickle tickle! lol he is so cute. She is 4 weeks tomorrow! :) how time flies ... pretty soon she will be two months then three then 4 and then Daddy will be home meeting her for the first time! how awesome that will be.. I cry at thinking of the very moment he meets his daughter! I can not imagine what it is like not to meet one of your children till they are 4 months old. I would be a bunch of nerves if I was him and he always acts so calm and cool about everything. I am guessing deep inside he does get nervous just wants to be the cool guy! lol
I love my little family and I love that we are doing such a good job so far. I am pretty proud that I had our baby girl all on my own and so far I am holding it together so well! Prayer has helped so much! Praying for my strength each and every day in each and every way! PRaying I have Faith! and praying time flies just a little faster!
Sunday is Bryan's 6th Birthday! This is daddies 2nd birthday he has missed for Bryan. His Theme is Baseball and we are having it here at the house. It is so far the first birthday I have not gone way over board with. I have been so exhausted and I have been so out of it that I barely went to get decorations and stuff for his party yesterday.
I hope him and his friends have such a good time. We rented a bounce house for him.... and have a few games they can play. He gets his San Jose Sharks Jersey for his birthday and a Skylander he has been wanting. :)
That was my next mile stone to make it to... the next one is my in laws leaving. Then after that is the last day of school. HAve a lot to look forward too! :) Plus I cant wait for Lauren to sleep through the night and sleep in her own crib in her own room. :)
