My first bath

Last night I finally got on somewhat of a schedule. I went 3 and half hours without waking up!! Mommy would feed me and I would go right back to sleep :) This morning I got a little upset because my tummy was hurting me, but GG took me and made it all better. I hung out with mommy and daddy all day long. I had some more company from Fran and Kevin and Katelyn held me while I slept. I was suppose to get a bath later tonight, but I filled my diaper so much this afternoon that it came out the front and back!! So I got a bath a little earlier than expected. It was so much fun and I loved being naked. I got a little fussy in the end because I was starting to get cold. Once I got my change of clothes, I got to hang out with daddy's friend Derren. He held me and I just stared at his funny beard that looks like daddy's! The bath made me so sleepy and I decided to sleep the rest of the afternoon away on the boppy pillow that Lisa gave me and held my 'first doll' that GG gave me. I love my pillow!

Big day, Big night!

We had to wake up a little earlier yesterday to get to my first doctor's appointment. GG (nicoles mom) watched me while mommy got ready. We rode to the doctors and I got all checked out. After we left, daddy had to go to the doctors too. He was late on his allergy shots. Mommy and I waited in the car and I ate lunch while we waited on daddy to come back. We finally got to leave and get away from all of the doctors and were headed home for mommy and daddy to get lunch. I stayed awake a lot during the day and did my normal routine. We had company for dinner and a lot of daddys family came and brought some really good dinner. By the time they got here, I was sound asleep. Every body wanted to hold me because I am such a cutie, so daddy woke me up to be passed around. Well I took it like a champ and cuddled with everyone. But then it was time to pay them back for all they put me through during the day. Right as everyone was leaving I started to get a little fussy. By the time mommy and daddy wanted to go to bed, I was in a full out bad mood. I decided to keep them awake the whole night and showed them just how mad I was. By 4 in the morning, i had worn myself out and decided to sleep for a while. GG got there by 9 in the morning and I decided that I wanted to be a happy baby again! I even had tummy time for the first time today.. of course all I wanted to do was eat the pillow, but it was a lot of fun. I have stayed awake a lot today, so mommy and daddy are hoping that they can get some much needed sleep tonight (we'll see how I feel about that later!)

My first doctors appointment!

I went to the doctor for the first time on thursday. It was a really big day for me!! We rode in daddy's big truck on the way up there and mommy sat in the back with me. Once we got to the doctor, I was wide awake and knew something was up. When they called me back, I had to get all the way down to my diaper! I didn't really like it, but was still a good girl. Once the doctor came in, she pushed and poked on me and I didn't cry to much, I just gave her a bunch of dirty faces letting her know that I was not too happy about it. But when she put that cold piece of metal on me, I couldn't hold it back anymore! I let her hear just how well my wind pipes work.
Once she finally got done and wrapped me back in my blanket, I was back to a happy camper! Mommy got a great picture of me with my eyes wide open and happy! :)

Sweet Baby Hailey

We decided to put together a slide show of all the pics of Hailey. Of course we think she is the most precious little girl in the world, but we'll let you see for yourself... enjoy!!!!!

Hailey Brook Floyd

Hailey has arrived!!!

Our sweet baby girl arrived June 8 at 2:59pm. She was 8lbs and 10oz (wow!) and 19 and one half inches long. My labor was def. not as bad as it could have been. I arrived at the hospital on Sunday at 7:30p. They gave me my first dose of medicine to soften my cervix. I then had to have two more doses after that. We had a lady beside us that went all natural, and she was screaming at the top of her lungs, so needless to say we were both wide awake at 3:30 in the morning. Once that happened, I was wide awake and now noticing every contraction that I was having. By 6:30am it was at the point where I could not take it anymore and started the epidural. It didn't take the first time so after about an hour, they placed it again and it took correctly and finally I could take a breath. The doctor checked me at 12 and I was 6cm. He checked again at 1 and I was already at a 10 (without any pitocin sp? needed!) Dr. Pohl said he had to see another patient and would be back in 30mins to start the process. About 45 mins. later the nurse had me start pushing and about an hour and fifteen mins later our beautiful baby was born. Unfort nobody knew how big she was going to be and he had to do an episiotomy to help get her here.

She is the most precious and beautiful thing in the world. She passed all of her test and is doing great. She has made it pretty easy on mommy with her feeding so far. She has only had two times where she just couldn't wake up and went for a while without feeding, but other than that, she has been pretty much on a 3 hr feeding time. She is miss sleepy head and it is a rare and awesome thing when she decides to open her eyes!! Dustin got the most amazing picture of her, even if we do say so ourselves. She has been great so far about not crying, only when you burp her, she doesn't like that. She is already a daddy's girl and will only open her eyes to look and talk to him! We are the proudest parents in the world! We could not be happier and so thankful that God has blessed us with this beautiful miracle.

Hailey's Arrival!!!

We went to the doctor today and found out when we get to meet our baby girl. Unless Hailey decides to make her appearance early, we are set to arrive at the hospital Sunday night, June 7th and can expect to meet her on Monday, June 8th! (dustin's brothers b-day!) We are so very excited. It is sort of a mix of emotions. On one hand I am so happy to know that it is just around the corner, but on the other, it is sort of nerve racking to know the exact date! It will be a count down until Monday. We will finally get to meet my little soccer player (bc she loves to kick me so much!)! I have been feeling pretty good lately, def. uncomfortable, but it is only expected at this point. We have pretty much everything ready for her arrival and now we are just going to try and relax for the next couple of days before this life changing experience. We can't wait to see and hold her in our arms. We know it is going to be a big adjustment, but we also know that it is going to be the most amazing and fun experience of our lives. Please keep us in your prayers on Sunday/Monday.. well actually continuously. We hope to be spreading the good news sometime on Monday afternoon :)

38 weeks (9 1/2 months)

We enjoyed the Memorial day weekend by laying around the whole time and not doing too much of anything. Dustin painted our last room for now while I cleaned up the house, but that was the extent of our chores this weekend. I love all of our newly painted rooms. I got to catch up on some scrapbooking and almost wrapping up the 08 year (I know, I know!) We went today for our weekly check up and the doctor gave us another great report :) He said my tummy measurements were good and her heartbeat was good as well. It is always fun to hear her heart beating so fast. I have been having a lot of trouble sleeping lately. My stomach has been really crampy and she decides to get in uncomfortable positions for mommy. Dustin says that I still try and do everything I could before at the same pace and need to slow it down. But it is hard when you get to counting down the days and know there are things that need to get done. I do listen to my body when it says stop and try to prop my feet up. We love to sit and watch Hailey "play"... she does flips and rolls already! haha. Daddy gets amazed when she decides to make my whole stomach collect on one side. It does look pretty funny. Every once in a while you can see the exact outline of a little foot and we just laugh. She responds so well to his voice and touch and it brings a smile to his face. She loves when mommy sings (with noone around of course!) and dances to the music. She enjoys dancing along with me! We are getting so excited and know that it is just around the corner! We can't wait to see our baby girl and share her with the world!!
