Memorial Weekend

So we had a three day weekend (well i actually had a four now that i am taking friday's off), memorial day weekend, unofficial start of the summer. Saturday was pretty uneventful as in regards to we had a lazy day at home, which honestly is what i needed, it seems we never stop, so a day to just be home felt good. Of course that doesn't include me getting up and indulging in my new obsession with yard sales. Gregory and i were off at 830am, it was fun. We picked Emily up at 11 from a sleep over at Kira's house, which meant dealing with a bear of a child the rest of the day because they don't sleep, ( why they call them sleepovers is beyond me, although i do recall my mum saying the same thing to me when i was younger). So Saturday afternoon sitting around, and after napping with my beautiful baby, he crawled for the first time! yep actually went forwards instead of backwards, a little unsteady but determined to get to where he needs to go (usually where he isn't allowed).

Sunday we went to Wendy and Butch's for a cook out, kids played, Avery and I sat on the front porch while everything happened around us, it was nice and relaxing. Monday we went to the lake, Avery's first time at the lake, dipped his toes in the very cold water. Other than the bugs that seemed to zone in on our one location, we had fun, went home and made smores. Here are a few pics of the weekend.

Avery Wilson

So our Little bundle arrived last August 2008, I went into labor at work on Monday (the 4th), Krista drove me to the hospital, where for the next 28 hours i had contractions every two to 4 mins, it was awful, they wouldn't admit me because they couldn't decide if they were going to send me home or not, i was so upset, at around 2am i had one of many meltdowns on Shane begging him to not let them send me home, i just couldn't understand how they might! So Tuesday rolls around after no sleep, Dr. Hoyne (who actually delivered my daughter, Emily) came in to check on my progress; 3 almost 4 cm, woohoo the hours of walking the halls of the hospital had paid off, so they broke my water and then got me my epidural, yeah i thought i might be able to do it without drugs, and then hour 26 kicked in and there was no way. Of course as luck would have it at 9 cm the machine pumping the medicine through my epidural malfunctioned and stopped giving me the drugs. WHAT!!! by the time they fixed it, it was time to push, after an hour i was gettitng nowhere at all. Finally Dr. Kennedy came in and said that the babies heart rate was dropping very low and he needed to come out right now. So we were whisked of for an emergency c-section It seemed like it took forever for them to pull him out and wow a c-section is not fun, it feels like an elephant is on your chest, the pressure of them pulling and tugging. but tat 3:07 pm, here came Avery Wilson weighing in at 8 lbs 11 oz. no wonder i couldn't deliver him the little porker, he was great, ate like a champ right away and spent the next 4 months attached to my boobs.

Our Wedding day (07-07-07)

Ok so a little late, but i wanted to post pictures of our wedding day. it was a gorgeous summer day, Emily was my maid of honor, Gregory was the ring bearer (or ring barrel as he tells me) and Connery was the best man, it was a little wedding, with family and friends but it was perfect. Here are a few memories for you to see.

May 27th, 2009

So this past weekend, memorial weekend marks the first time Avery crawled. he's been going backwards and scootching, but until this weekend that was as much as he'd do, well now he's off. he's very adventurous too, constantly being pulled back, to which you just get a great big smile. How do you stay mad at him for that?
In other news, Emily went for her second round of blood work today, the dr. called yesterday and her blood sugar came back elevated, so we had to go again this morning, boy is that an ordeal, she HATES it, can't blame her though, who really likes it? but i felt awful.
I'm off on Gregory's field trip on friday, so that should be exciting. I'll be posting more pics soon.
