Kayelynn Miciah-Jaymii. (Very long) you have been warned.

Last but not least my baby girl! Wow is all I can say to try to explain the past year! I am so blessed to have Kayelynn as my daughter. She is wonderful! She is always super happy and is always smiling. I never thought I could love someone like I love her. She is the best baby ever. :)

I can't wait until this summer when we can actually go to the park.. And when she can go swimming. Even though it does make me sad that soon she is going to be ONE YEAR OLD! March 4th my baby is no longer going to be a baby! :(

I still remember the day she was born like it was yesterday. I was only 36 weeks. I had been having contractions for like 3 days in a row that were time-able.. But Every time I called my doctor she would say to take a warm bath.. Finally on March 3rd we went to the hospital. The put me on an IV and gave me a shot in my booty to put me to sleep. They said that was if it was real labor I would get some rest and we would no that it wasn't from being dehydrated and tired. 


Sure enough I had regular contractions through the night and when the doctor came to check me the next morning I started bleeding. A lot. So they took me to labor and delivery and had me walk and sit on a yoga ball thing. My doctor eventually decided that since my water sack was bulging that she might as well break my water for me... So she did... While Brian was away getting himself something to eat, of course! 


About ten minutes later my contractions were so bad that I couldn't breath and I begged asked for my epidural. They gave it to me and I COULD NOT stand the feeling of having no feeling in my legs! I kept having to ask Brian to move them for me so I could get comfy. Lol. It was so funny. My doctor checked me because I said I was feeling a lot of pressure. I was at 4cm so she went ahead and told the epidural person to up my meds since I could feel pressure. About 15 seconds later I felt something and I told my mom that she better get the doctor. I (tmi) checked myself and I could feel the babies head like right there. Sure enough the doctor came and checked me and I was 10 cm and it was time to push. At 9:29 PM on March 4th I had Kayelynn. End of that overly long story. :)


Oh and just to add, I loved my epidural. (Except for my leg being overly numb). I didn't feel anything at all. It was amazing. :)

 My last pregnancy picture at 36 weeks

idk if you can tell here but she was VERY jaundice we had to rush her to the hospital when she was 4 days old and have her put under lights all night.

ps. her hair stuck up like that at all times no matter what!

(Wearing the same outfit Paige was wearing in the picture post of her)

Felisha Paige

Paige was 9 and a half months old when Brian and I started dating!! Younger than Kayelynn is now! She couldn't walk, talk, and was still on a bottle. She was so tiny!! From day one she has been my girl. :) In the past, she has been known to literally be stuck up my butt. Even know sometimes I can't even take a shower without her sitting in the bathroom waiting on me. 

Wow, how she has grown!! It still seems insane that she was Kayelynn's age when Brian and I starting dating! She has turned into quite the little drama queen. After Kayelynn was born she went into a period of time where she wouldn't walk... only crawl. She started sucking her thumb and I would always catch her with Kayelynns pacifiers in her mouth. Even now there are times, like tonight, where she wont eat unless I am sitting down and feeding her. She will tell me that she can't do it, I have to feed her.

That aside, she is a sweet little thing. She definitely has a mind of her own and love attention, as long as it isn't from people she doesn't know. She loves Kayelynn, too. When Kayelynn was a baby and I was feeding her her bottle she would come up to me and say "No I do it!" And she would hold the bottle.

She's so cute though. :) I love her to death. When she was younger, like 15 months, she would always call me mommy. Obviously this was a problem because I would be pissed if I found out my daughter was calling someone else mommy. So instead now she calls me "Meggy." It's so cute! Whenever she hears Seth call me Megan she goes "NO! It's Meggy!"

the 1st two are of Paige when Brian and I first started dating.

Seth Lee.

I want to do a post on each one of the kids. So, naturally I need to start with the oldest. Seth is 4 years old now. He was 2 years and 5 months old when Brian and I got together... Younger than Paige is now! He has always been super smart. When Brian and I got together he could already talk like a pro, he seriously sounded like you were talking to a six year old. Some of the words you would hear him say would just leave you stunned for a minute.

He has turned into the kindest most polite little boy in the world. He always says please and thank you, he always plays with Kayelynn and tries to make her laugh, and he cleans up all his messes! You rarely ever have to ask him to do anything twice. AND, no one can beat him on the Wii. 

My favorite thing about Seth is how loving he is. He will always run up to you and give you a big hug and tell you that he loves you. At bed time when I tuck him in if I don't give him a huge and a kiss he always reminds me. (I always pretend to forget just to see if he notices it.)

I am very proud to say that I have helped shaped him in to the not so little boy he is. Now I will leave off with some pictures of Seth.

   

Christmas Update.

Seth and Paige woke up here on Christmas morning, so that was awesome! They were so excited when they woke up. :) Last year they weren't very interested in opening their gifts, but this year they were. Kayelynn on the other hand could care less. I had to open her gifts for her. Paige had crazy hair from sleeping with her pretty in her hair.


It was super busy. On the 23rd Brian, Kayelynn, and I went to my dad and his girlfriends house for a Christmas get together with 2 of my brothers and her 2 kids and grandson who is 6 months younger than Kayelynn. Then on Christmas Eve we went to my mom's to celebrate. Then on Christmas day we went to my Grandma's with my dad's whole side of the family. I felt bad because we didn't go to anyone on Brian's side, but his Grandma waited until like 3 days before Christmas Eve to let us know she was having it at her house. We already had plans to go to my mom's in Kentucky so there was just no way we could go.


We got the kids this huge bouncy thing that blows up and they jump in. We put it in Kayelynn's room and but like 200 balls in it. They all 3 love it! Here are some Christmas pictures.

Seth with his first present.

 Paige with her first present and her crazy hair.

 And Kayelynn not really giving a crap about hers.

He's such a good big brother! He kept looking over making sure Paige could get hers open.

She eventually turned into this and was screaming cause she wanted held.

Okay that's it for Christmas... But onto other news my BEST friend in the whole world just found out on December 20th that she is pregnant! I am so excited! I wish we could be pregnant together! Lol. When I was pregnant with Kayelynn I didn't have anyone to be pregnant with. I do want another baby eventually. I don't want to wait to long though, because I want it to be close in age to Kayelynn. It just sucks with Brian having 2 other kids because 4 kids is a lot. Lol.

Oh and by the way...

I am a blond... And I just realized a few days ago that I actually have to go and manually check to see if anyone comments.. SO... If you commented and I never commented back or anything... I wasn't being rude. I just never saw it until now.

Updates.

So.... Not too much has happened since my last post. Paige had to stay two nights at Childrens Hospital though. I guess she had been sick and wouldn't eat anything. Jessy took her to the doctor to get looked at and they told her that they thought Paige had Pneumonia. So we went to Children's with Jessy and John (Jessy's fiancee). They did chest x-rays and said she didn't have Pneumonia. But, since she wasn't eating anything they wanted her to stay the night. They gave her an IV. After that we left because Brian had to go to work later that night and needed to get some sleep. He worked from 3 AM to 12 AM the next day. So it was like 22 hours. Anyway, they had Paige stay an extra night because of the weather but she got to go home today.


We're picking them up tomorrow and keeping them until Christmas Eve. Then Jessy is dropping them off Christmas Eve night and they're going to wake up her on Christmas morning. Then we'll take them home Christmas Day. 


Kayelynn has been good. She has two bottom teeth that are still in the process of coming in all the way. You can see the tops though and it's so cute! She stands up on everything. We let her open her little walk and ride toy that we got her for Christmas so she could have something to play with/help her learn to walk. She loves it. She hasn't quite gotten the hang of it yet though.


I want to get rid of my dog. We got a cage for it but it's still pooping in the house. It wont go outside to save it's life. I hate it. Plus it chewed up on of Kayelynn's shoes that was my favorite! I want to give it back but Brian wants to keep it. 


Brian's at work again. I should be cleaning while Kayelynn's napping. I guess I'm going to go start on that.


-Megan

Ember.

This is Ember. This is our new puppy. :) I love him. Kayelynn... Not so much showin' the love for this little guy. She kinda hates him. I think she's jealous. Lol.

Kayelynn pulled on of her ear rings out... No idea where it is... Those were $40... Grrr, child of mine. So.. Now she only has one. Oh well. She'll have to wait until I have the money to buy her a new pair. Cause I can't buy her a new pair and not Paige.. And I can't buy Paige and Kayelynn something new without buying something for Seth. 

Christmas is coming up and I'm excited. I'm going to be hanging the kids stuffed stockings up soon as a teaser. I already told them Santa took them and was deciding if they were good enough to get them filled. I said if they come back full then they were good and that means Santa is going to bring them presents. If they come back empty that means they are getting coal. Lol.

They have a ton of stuff in their stockings. Seth has a Cars poster, a Cars comic book, Cars magnets, chapstick, a pack of socks, a bouncy ball thingy, Cars PJ's, And something else I can't remember. Paige has a Princess poster, a Princess comic book, a Princess magnets set, pack of socks, Princess PJ's, a ball thing, chapstick, and again I can't remember the last thing. Kayelynn has socks, a new sippy cup, Tinkerbell PJ's, A ball, some Onsies. Oh, they all got a new blanket too. That's what I was forgetting. 

So we spent around $250 on each kid including stocking stuffers and tax. Paige got I think 20 or 21 things. Seth got like 17. And Kayelynn got like... 15. Kayelynn and Seth's stuff was bigger than Paige's. She got a lot of dolls and princess stuff.  

Brian already got his stuff. I'm thinking about getting a few other little things to put in his stocking. Like socks and underwear. Lol. It's stuff he needs though. I might also get him a new DVD or something. He hasn't gotten me my present. I need a new camera. The only thing I have to take pictures is my cell phone. My camera is like 6 years old and has water trapped in it or something. So I def. need a new one to take pictures on Christmas/birthdays. 

Okay. Goodbye for now. :)
