So much new!

Okay first and foremost, I seriously promise to be a better blogger! haha. There has been so much going on and every time I sit down to do this..I get interrupted. So right now Mason is outside playing with my sister and Hayden is sleeping..hopefully it stays that way so I can get through this long post. haha.

Things have been great! We have been in Vegas at my moms for 3 months now, and I can't believe it has already been that long! Time is just flying by. Especially since I had Hayden! Crazy! I will go back to December. Brad got here with all our stuff (which is just sitting in storage) and we had a great time for the 2 weeks he got to be here. It was just sort of crazy because all of the stuff we had going on while he was here. Baby, Christmas and trying to see everybody. I am so glad he got to be here though..and now I can't wait till he gets to be with us again! This being separated stuff sucks! But we are definitely being able to save money and pay things off which is amazing!!

Hayden Cole got here on December 23rd! He weighed 8lbs 9oz. and was 20 1/4" long. He weighed the exact same as Mason! How crazy is that! He was an inch longer than Mason though! :) We had a repeat C-Section and it went pretty smooth. We went in at 5am and that morning and Hayden was born at 10:13..so that morning was just waiting around for them to take me back. I was super nervous about the spinal. Because with Mason I was in labor when I got the epidural the pain from it didn't bother me whatsoever. But this time I knew I wouldn't be in pain beforehand so I was nervous. It wasn't bad though! I did end up getting sick when they were sewing me up though and had to throw up..that was no fun. I was did not feel good at all. I went to recovery for almost 2 hours after he was born. I do not remember any of it though because I had them give me versaid (sp?) and it made me not remember the recovery room very much. haha. I had them give it to me because I was feeling so sick and having this weird feeling in my chest..it definitely calmed me down and made me feel better! After that I went into my room and finally got to hold Hayden! He is so amazing! I was so worried about not being able to love another baby as much as I love Mason, but that worry went right out the window as soon as I saw him! I love being a mom! They actually let me go home the next day on Christmas Eve, which is unheard of after a C-Section! But I told them my mom was a labor and delivery nurse and they knew I had Mason at home so I think they were just trying to be nice. The recovery has been pretty good. I feel fantastic now and it's been 4 weeks! The beginning was a little rough, but not too bad. Hayden is such a good baby! He pretty much sleeps through the night! Breastfeeding is going amazing, and I am so happy! We love having Hayden around! :)

Mason is doing great! I can't believe he is going to be 2 in 2 months! What the heck! That went by way too fast! He is kind of being a turd lately, but that is to be expected I guess. He was pretty jealous of Hayden at first..but is starting to do a little bit better. He is talking so much more, even though some of it is not so easily understandable, I know what he is trying to say! haha. He is also speaking in his own language at times. It cracks me up. He looks at me like I am supposed to know what he is saying! lol. He had a rough month and a half with sickness. He had a double ear infection, then the flu, then a cold, then bronchilitis, then croup and then another cold! Poor kid! I guess the bronchilitis is recurring and the doctor said it could happen every year around Christmas until he is a teenager. I am really hoping that is not true, because none of us get much sleep when he has that! He is being a good big brother and likes to give Hayden kisses, its so cute! He misses his daddy a lot though. I cannot wait till we can be together again!

We are hoping to move to San Diego in March. I am in the process of seeing if I can get base housing then. We shall see! If not I will have to keep looking off base, which is hard! Other than that, nothing else really exciting is going on! I am gonna start watching Preston again on Monday so that is exciting! Mason needs a buddy to play with! I promise I will be updating this thing more! :)
