2 months Old!!
2 month check up with daddy! Zoey is growing wonderfully! She is 11 pounds now and 22 inches long. She is right in the middle of the pack for size. She is getting cuter every day. She laughed at me for the first time a few days ago and gives us the biggest smiles in the morning. She was very brave for her shots and only cried for a minute. I cant believe she is growing so fast and time is going by too quickly!

Flashdance!! I love leg warmers. They are adorable

Love my baby girl!
I guess once you have a baby all your blog posts become about the adorable bundle of joy... And I am no exception! I am having so much fun being a mommy to this adorable little girl...
Zoey has the funniest baby mullet. She is practically bald on the top, but in the back she has long, dark hair! Too bad you can't ever see it
She loves to kick her legs like she is riding a bicycle and she loves to have one arm straight out in the superman pose. It is too funny! She does it when she is awake too
She is getting so long! It is crazy how fast they grow...
Here she is modeling the cute shoes Elisse knit for her... They are so cute! A little big right now but she will grow into them
I am so in love with this little girl and can't help but kiss her chubby cheeks all day long! I love being a mommy and can't imagine my life without this cute baby girl. Zoey has been a lot better with sleeping at night the past few days and I am soo grateful for a little more sleep! She is so smiley now and is especially happy when she wakes up in the morning. She gives me giant smiles until she gets tired for her first nap. She is growing so fast and I want to remember all these fun stages!

6 Weeks!
I can't believe my baby girl is 6 weeks old today! I love her so much... She is so fun and I love her smiles and the noises she makes. She always makes a squeaky noise when she yawns and she makes noises like Aaron nevell (the guy who sings have your self a merry little Christmas). We love our baby Zoey and can't imagine life without her!
Mommy's little cow... 6 weeks old today!

More Zoey pictures
Since we are still at home until RSV season ends, here are some more pictures of my adorable baby girl
Silly faces :)
Zoey wearing the cute Winny the Pooh and Tigger outfit we got from Disney world last summer. I was pregnant when we went but didn't know if it was a boy or girl so I tried to get the cutest gender neutral outfit I could find. I think she looks pretty cute :)
Baby girl in her ducky towel after bath time
Go Jazz! Lauren gave this to Zoey for Christmas
Chillin on the couch while grandma Bonan was here for a visit
Smiling at mommy!
She is so fun and is starting to interact with me and Jed more. She looks at me and will smile if we kiss her chubby cheeks. She is getting a little better with sleeping at night but loves to cuddle with mom in bed. Hopefully she will start to like sleeping in her bassinet soon! We give her a bath every night and for the most part she screams the whole time. I think she really hates being cold. If I can get the room really warm and get the water to be a nice temp she likes it but if not she let's us know!

Baby Zoey
I don't have the cord to download the pictures from my camera so this post will have what few pictures I have on my phone. I wanted to write down the story of Zoey's birth before I forget it.
On tuesday jed and I went in to the doctor for our scheduled appointment and my swelling and blood pressure were up. My doctor put me on bedrest, scheduled and NST and told me to come back on Friday. I had my Non stress test the next day and everything looked good and my blood pressure had gone down. I assumed that would be the case on Friday at our appointment so I didn't bring my hospital bag and I was not mentally prepared either. It was Gavins birthday and we were planning on going to his party straight from the doctors office. Well my blood pressure was still high so dr. Kaelberer decided he didn't want to wait and sent me straight to labor and delivery to be induced. I was so nervous and a little freaked out! I thought I was ready for Her to come but I obviously wasn't! They checked us into the hospital at 6:00 pm on the 7th and started me on an oral medicine to get my body ready for pitocin (if your body isn't ready for it, pitocin doesn't work sometimes). I do NOT know how people have a baby naturally. My contractions were every 2 minutes from 6 until 2 in the morning when I couldn't take the pain anymore so I got the blessed epidural. It was the most magical moment! I was able to sleep until 7 when dr. Terry came in and broke my water and started the pitocin. My dr wasn't on call and had a day of skiing planned with his family but said he would try to make it back in time to deliver Zoey. Luckily Dr. Terry was on call who I know very well because I used to work for him. So they broke my water at 7 and when they checked me at 10 I had gone from a 1 1/2 to a 2. I started to worry that I wasn't going to progress on my own and I'd have to have a c- section but at 1 I started feeling more pressure and was dilated to a 6 and by 2 I was complete! It was crazy how quickie things picked up. They had me sit for an hour and a half trying to let my body bring the baby down on it's own so I started pushing at about 3:30. I pushed for about 20 minutes and then had to sit and wait while they called Dr. Terry in to come deliver. It was soo hard to just sit and not push because the urge was very strong. Once dr Terry came in there was so much chaos with all the people getting the room ready. I pushed 3 times with him in the room and she was here!
The proud Daddy. I thought Jed might have a hard time with watching the birth but he was awesome! He has been such a good Dad and he loves Zoey so much!
When she came out she hardly cried which made me so nervous but she was perfect with no problems. I am so in Love with her!!!
After her first bath in the hospital
Going to the dr. At 3 days old. She was jaundice and they had to check her levels.
At home with mommy (this is what we do all day since we can't go outside.. Having a baby in January during RSV season is no fun!)
Smile! She has started making more faces and smiling at me and Jed. She is so much fun! We have to keep mittens on her because the second we take them off she claws at her face. It is so sad! I have a picture on my camera that I will post once i get my memory card uploaded.
Wide eyes! I cant wait to see what color her eyes will be. She has a TON on hair on the back of her head. She has a cute baby mullet :)
Stretch! She sleeps with her arms above her head sometimes.. So cute!!!
Naptime with daddy... She sleeps really well during the day but not so good at night. She loves to be cuddled up to us at night to sleep. We are trying to get her to sleep in the bassinet but she has a mind of her own!
Watching TV with dad in her cute ballerina outfit. She came home in the outfit but it fits a lot better now .
I have a ton more pictures I need to post including her first photo shoot so hopefully i will get those up soon.
I am so in love with this little baby and I am so grateful that I get to be her mommy. She is such a sweetheart!
