 3 months old

*Not sure your weight as you dont go back to the doc until 4 months.

*Starting wearing clothes size 3-6 months..they are a little big at first but once washed they seem to fit well. Wearing size two diaper.

*Eating usually every 2.5-3 hours; mostly just nursing well give a occasional bottle which you take fine sometimes youll spit it up.

*Getting better at tummy time, have rolled to your side a few times and then you get mad.

*First baby laughs..you love bouncing and farmers horse and watching Landon dance.

*Usually take a morning nap in your swing..all others you have to be held or rocked or bounced.. Mom keeps trying to get you to nap in your crib..the longest youve gone is 20 mins. sigh.

*Sleep pretty good at night you had a few nights of not waking up till 5 or 6 and I freaked out.  Typically youll go to sleep around 830-9 and wake up around 2-3 eat and back to sleep till 7-730..so not horrible.

* You still are swaddled in your crib with the white noise going. we tried one night not to swaddle you and you kept waking up over and over so once you roll and we have to ditch it it will prob be rough. EEK.

*You can sit in your frog sit me up and look around which you like.  You'll tolerate the bouncer more than the boys did.  

* We are missing stroller walks. 

* You had your first quarantined Halloween as a pink care bear..you seemed to love your costume which shocked me.

* You are happiest in the morning and usually happy.. the only time you get mad is when you get over tired from your cat naps..typically in the evenings.

* Daddy can sway you and have you out in minutes in the evenings when you are fussy.

*You are grabbing on to things and pulling on things.

*You have been drooling non stop and we have to put bibs on you, also sucking on your hands and arms.

*We had your eye white spot checked and it is just something you were born wiht and will always have but the doc is confident it wont effect your vision. Fingers crossed!

Two months old 10/20

*You weighed 11lbs 12oz..chuck a lunk. 14% increase.  I was guessing 10 pds so was shocked so much. LOL

*Smiling and talking about a storm.

*Eating.. usually every 2, 2.5 or 3 hours during the day. When you are hungry you are hungry!

*Wearing 3 month clothes.. some are tight or not long enough esp in the legs.  They seem to shrink after washing too. Moved up to size one diapers, they seemed huge at first but now are fitting snug.

*Sleeping- sleep well in crib at night but for naps if I put you in there or the bassinet you wake up like 20-30 mins after.  You prefer to sleep on us, the swing the last couple of weeks or in your rock in play after being asleep.  For night you typically eat and then go down around 9-10 and then are up around 1230-130 then back up around 430. We have gotten a few nights of 5 hours or 4 hours stretches.. typically will go 3.5 hours.

*You like to play on your play mat and to be held.  Tummy time you kinda just lay there..dont mind it too much.  You like to lift your head up all over when we hold you.

*The boys adore you and say good night to you and have to see where you are. Bray pulls on your arms etc and runs you your paci if you cry. Landon likes to read to you and has been a huge help if I need to do something or need a burp cloth etc..hes always willing to grab it for me. 

*We think you look more like Landon in comparing pics.. the eyes etc.. Lots of people say Bray but I don't agree. We shall see.

*You met your other cousins Ava and Cam.

* You got carted to all of Landons soccer games but didn't seem to mind.

*You seem to like your car seat and being in your stroller.  Now that its getting colder Im not sure what well do.

*Had baby acne but its all gone, now have some cradle cap we are trying to get rid of.. Your one eye kinda waters and may be a blocked tear duct.

*You had a hip ultra sound at mayo do to being breech but it all came back normal!

1 month old

*Met cousin Charlie 

*Went to apple orchard with cousin Charlie.

*Love to sleep on us and being held and rocked.

Olivia Elizabeth is here!!!

Last pic with boys before baby.

Before I forget I wanted to type out Olivia's birth story.  Having a scheduled C-section was definitely a different experience from the boys births.

I got a call the night before from the birth center to arrive the next morning at 6am, for a tentative surgery time of 730am.  I was so thankful I got the first time, as in earlier appoinments they mentioned I was scheduled as the last case of the day.  I was so worried Id be soo hungry and freaked out waiting for my surgery time.

Lees parents arrived from WI the night before to stay with the boys and on Thursday morning Lee and I left for the hospital at 540.  We got up to our room where wed be staying and put away our things.

A nurse came in and hooked me up to a monitor to monitor the baby for a bit and then another nurse came in to get my blood.  The first nurse came back and said they wanted to give me two ivs because of being a higher risk person/surgery in case they would need to give me a blood transfusion etc.  I could sense she was nervous about giving me the IV because shes like oh Im going to ask so and so if she wants to do it or if I should.  Im like great..because I have stubborn veins as it is and its hard to get my blood etc.  She came back ok Im going to do one.  She failed twice..so then another nurse came in and failed the first time and then finally got my iv in.  Shes like well ill see if we can just go with the one since weve pricked you so many times now.  I still have the bruises now to show for it.  (the nurse getting my blood also poked me twice). Joy joy!

Then two surgical nurses came in to get me to take me down to the OR.  They asked if I wanted to walk or take a wheel chair, I said I could walk.  We walked into the cold OR and I sat up on the operating table and waited for the anesthesiologist to came in to give me my spinal.  I had to hunch over like a cat and put my feet up on a stool while the nurses held onto me. I swear it took about 4 times until she got it..my left leg kept zinging which meant it was not working.. finally both legs went numb and it had taken.. The nurses had to lift my legs up onto the table and then we waited for them to set up and for everyone to get into the OR.  

My doc had asked what type of music I wanted in the OR I said country.. shes like today s country or more old school..def todays country. I think she liked the opposite hahah.  Everyone in the OR went around and introduced themselves and said over and over what they were here to do. etc.  They had wanted two docs in there in case of emergency and my rare case. (not knowing what theyd run into).  There was some Mayo surgeon that said he was there for moral support. hahaha

Then they finally got started.. Its so weird all I could see was a blue sheet but you can hear them and all I could feel is constant pushing down on my stomach. Not painful but just constant pushing. I thought Id only feel this as they were pulling the baby out but it was the entire time.  After a while they were like wheres dad as it was almost time to pull out baby.. finally Lee came in and sat down next meet.. they then pulled down the blue sheet to a clear one and held up the baby to us.. She cried right away..which I had read some babies via c section don't cry away. It was such a relief to see her after this risky and unknown, anxiety filled pregnancy.  They took her away with Lee and a nurse to check her over and then brought her back over to me for a few minutes.. After a couple minutes Lee and nurse and baby went up to our room to wait for me.  I did not realize Lee would be gone from this point on.  It was a lot of laying there just waiting and feeling like Im all alone.. my arms started to feel shaky.. and I was just hoping everything would go okay.   The nurse anestist switched out and the new guy was my age and very talkative and was just randomly talking to me which helped pass the time more.  It seriously felt like an enterinity.  The doc called over that the placenta was eery wrapped around weird and if I wanted to seeit. Nope don't want to get sick. They did take pics of it and sent it to pathology.  She did say it was the uternine septum (what you are born with) a heart shaped uterus. Its so weird this had never come up before.  She said it was all going well and did I still want to tie my tubes and I said yes.. No more babies here.  lol... finally after I was all put back together they wheeled me back to my room.  I then started feeling itchy and nauseous.  They gave me some benedryl in my room but it didn't seem to help.  I just itched everywhere and I asked if I could eat something.  The nurse is like no if you don't feel good I wouldn't eat.. she finally brought me some crackers which I did eat.  Finally the nausea started to go away and then I got the sudden sweats.. I was so hot and dripping with sweat.. the nurse brought me cool wet towels for my face.  Im like LEe turn the air down.. its as low as it goes. UGH.   I cant remember how long thi slasted but it finally did that day.. I still had my catheder in till prob 4am and constant pressure cuffs on my legs going off non stop.  

I never took anything for the pain besides rotating of Tylenol/ibrouphen..and they also gave me stool softners.  Around 4am they took my catheder out and I stood up for the first time with two nurses.  It was so weird to feel like you can barely stand up.  I made it to the bathroom and back and that was considered a victory.  Shortly after the doc who did my surgery came in and talked to me and just said it went as well as it could and explained the uterus and how I could have a surgery to remove etc.  I prob don't need it and wont do it. She was amazed this was never an issue with the other pregnancies and that the boys were able to get head down and deliver normally.  So weird!

The next day I walked around the room more and back and forth to the bathroom. I also ate some real foods.  The nurses did take the baby for us at night some so we could get some rest.  They gave me the option to stay until SUnday but felt I was moving around well that if I wanted I could go home after two nights on Saturday.  We chose this option.  I felt like they weren't doing much for us besides giving me medicine and bugging us..all things I can do at home.  

We are so thankful everything went well with the surgery and that Olivia was just perfect.  I was so terrified for the surgery and the unknown.  

We headed home Saturday around 1130ish to the boys.  The boys were in love and both wanted to hold her and were mad I had nothing to put in a bottle for them to get her one. Landon ran to the fridgeand pulled out white milk to feed her. bahhahaha

We are so in love with our sweet Olivia and our family is now complete.

ITS A GIRL

We had our 20 week ultra sound and found out is a GIRL! I had thought it was a girl the whole time but I didn't want to get my hopes up. You were quite the stinker moving all around and wouldn't show us your face or certain things they needed pictures of. We kept trying to find out the gender and youd move your legs so we couldn't see finally at the very end you cooperating and the tech goes theres something you aren't used to seeing girl parts. We were like YAY!!!! Everything looked perfect with baby so we were so happy. Later I was called that the ultra sound looked perfect except I have some sort of extra membrane..so I am trying not to freak out. They told me not worry. We will go back next month for another ultra sound and hopefully we can find out more.


Now to shop! (cant go anywhere). Paint the blue room non blue and decide on a name. I think we have the first name squared away but not the middle name.

Old wives gender predictions

Old wives tales for fun

Chinese Gender Prediction: age at conception and month of conception = BOY I think this wrong both times before?
Ramzi Method (location of baby on early ultrasound): Left side is girl, Right is boy = I have no idea. it was on the opposite side of the boys?
Carrying high or low: I feel its higher this time than boys.. boys were low basketballs. this is more stretched out and higher?
Acne: Breakouts “steal your beauty” signify girl, no breakouts signify boy = BOY I keep growing skin tags not sure if that means stealing my beauty lol
Baby’s Heart Rate: Over 140bpm is girl, under 140 bpm is boy = always been over 160- girl
Cravings: Sweet is girl, Salty is boy = Sweet, salty things taste like its drenched in salt sometimes I cant even eat it. in cookies etc I can taste the small amount of salt
Morning Sickness: nausea and vomiting is girl, I didn't vomit was def more nauseous all day long.. eating did not help and with the boys if I snacked I felt better typically
Mayan System: Mother’s age at conception and year, both even or odd is girl, one odd one even is boy = both odd GIRL
Fizzy urine test w baking soda : fizzes if its a boy, does nothing girl. GIRL didn't fizz
More moody and emotional: I feel that I am def more moody this time around.. every little thing drives me bonkers esp with Lee and my patience with the boys I feel is much less
Heartburn: Ive had it with all three..usually its worse for me in the end.. ive had a few bouts of it already
