My Baby is Two Months Old

I can't believe it has been two months since I gave birth to Ryan. Like everyone says, it is hard to imagine life without him now. He is finally smiling and cooing like a pro. Nothing makes getting up at 5-6am more worth it than seeing him smile at me and smelling his baby scent (well, dark roast K-Cups help too :)) He can roll over from stomach to back and loves his play mat and swing. He is going about 4 hours between feedings, so not quite sleeping through the night yet. Here are some pictures from month 2:

    He is perfect! We are so blessed as a family to have him. Years if joy to look for to. Can't wait to keep him tomorrow.

Nursery Pics

Here is Ryan's nursery! I managed to get it cleaned up enough to take some pictures. I am still waiting on the wall letters that say "RYAN" to hang above his crib. This Etsy seller is making me a little nervous, as she was supposed to ship them 2 weeks ago, and I haven't received them. I emailed her 5 days ago but haven't heard back. Hopefully they will arrive eventually. I still have a couple of more pictures to hang as well. Don't worry, he won't sleep in the crib with all that stuff in it! The wall letters will look like this, except obviously in blue:

I totally forgot I made this blog until I came across it in some old bookmarks the other day.  I can't believe my last post was August 16,  2014 and it's now June 20, 2022, and Ryan is 9 years old. Boy have things changed. I need to take time to go through old pictures as he's been growing and post them. Right now Ryan's favorite things are baseball (he has been playing since the days of t-ball at age 4), Fortnite, and watching YouTube videos. He will start 4th grade at the beginning of August! He is such a sweet, kind boy, does great in school, and makes friends easily. (Not that he can't still have his moments, as any kid does.) For now, here are a few pictures. He recently got the glasses, which I love! Hopefully I'll write again soon.

Ryan Joseph's Birth Story

Here is Ryan's birth story in timeline form: March 12, 2013 12am- Admitted to L&D for scheduled induction at 37w2d 1 am- Cytotec inserted to begin softening the cervix and start contractions 2:30-3am- Contractions became too strong and close together and baby was not handling them well, so the nurses came in to give me a shot of terbutaline to slow them down and oxygen to bring his heart rate back up. Everything ended up fine! 3-6am- Contractions were getting more regular, stronger, and uncomfortable. The nurse encouraged me to get my epidural before the OB came to break my water, and I happily obliged! 6:15am- 3 cm dilated, got epidural 7am- My mom arrived at the hospital and Joey woke up from his sleep on the not-so-comfortable couch bed. I was comfortable and resting (and putting on make-up :)) *At some point in here, the nurse started me on the lowest dose of Pitocin, but when the OB arrived, she told her to stop it because my contractions were regular and s...
