Our Little Bundle

We welcomed our latest addition to our family on Monday October 12, at 12:56 pm. Cannon Scott weighed 6lbs 6oz. and was 19 1/2 inches long.

I was induced on Monday morning and they started me on PIT at 7:30. I was having contractions about 5-7 min apart. The Dr came and broke my water at 9:50 and the contractions got a little stronger, but still not to bad. At noon I was still hanging out talking to jeramy my mom and my brother, I was dialted to a 4. I thought for sure that i was still goint to be hangin out at four that afternoon. I really thought i would of had a baby by eleven, Parks was only three hours after he broke my water.

Then at about 12:10 a big one hit, and from there on out they were all really good contractions, that I really had to concetrate and breath through, but I was getting really good rest inbetween them. At about 12:30 I was a 7 then one contration later was ready to push. The Dr. got there and I pushed for about 15 minutes and our little guy was born at 12:56.

Seriously the most amazing thing ever (well just as amazing as when parks was born)!

I really felt like this labor was much easier and I was in so much more controll.

It was an amazing experience that I am so grateful i got to have.

REALLY?

Does no one read my blog any more?

Am I that boring of a writer?

Hmmmm....

Proud Mom Moment

Parks is a terrible eater.

When he was younger, well till about fifteen months he ate everything! Then one day decided to just say no, and now is very picky. He lives of off dairy, ya know cheese yogurt, milk and crackers and raisins and cereal and very importantly FRUIT!

Not to mention he has a very dominate sweet tooth.

I try to use a lot of compromise/bribery, which i read in a magazine is not a bad method to get your kids to eat.

So tonight for dinner he had yogurt then discovered the chocolate pudding snack pack in the fridge. So I told him that if he ate a bowl of strawberries all gone he could have the pudding, and ya know what he did!! He sat there and ate and "mmmmm" through the whole bowl!!

YIPEE I love when I communicate something to him and he gets it!!! And I love when he eats something half way decent!

So then he enjoyed a snack pack of chocolate pudding!
