Another quick update & pics!!
Well I must say I am LOVING being a mom. Jax is the best baby I could have ever asked for. He sleeps six hours at a time and hardly ever cries! I go back to work the middle of this month and it's going to be very hard to leave this little guy. At least I only have to work a few days a week and I know he will be in good hands thanks to my loving in laws and my mom. From the day he was born the doctors and nurses were shocked at how alert he was, and he hasn't changed a bit. He is quite observant and very inquisitive. His big smile and little coo's make my heart melt. He has lost that newborn look and is now like a toddler and he is only two months old! They really do grow up so fast. We have his 2 month appointment tomorrow so I will post again soon to keep you updated on his stats! Im predicting 13 pounds and 23 inches! He is a big boy! Enjoy!

JAXON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well everyone Jaxon finally made it here safe and sound! All 7 pounds 13 ounces of him! He is 20 inches long and ADORABLE!!!!!!!!!!!!
I guess I can start from the beginning and let you know how the whole thing started. My due date was July 3 and I had my weekly doctors appointment on July 1. Having been dialated to a one for three weeks at this point and showing no signs of labor i asked my doctor to strip my membranes while he checked my cervix. Being only two days away from my due date we were ready to get this baby out! So my doctor went ahead with my request and sure enough i was still just a one. When he left the room i turned to James and said, "I think i just peed on the table." I stood up and sure enough the table was soaked!! But not with pee...... my doc. ACCIDENTALLY broke my water! So he told us to go home, pack our bags, and head to the hospital. We arrived to St. Marks around 7 P.M. on Wed. July 1. They took us straight to our room and started me on my I.V.'s. I wont drag this out and explain every last detail, but just over 26 hours later and after 2 hours of pushing little Jax arrived at 9:44 P.M. on thursday July 2!! He gave us a little bit of a scare and had to spend two and a half days in the NICU because of his saturated oxygen levels so unfortunately we couldn't take him home with us the day we left, but luckily we got to go back the next day and pick him up!! He is so precious and so pure and we are LOVING every moment of parenthood! I cant believe he is already almost a week old! I can already tell he is going to grow up way to fast :(
