He has arrived!!

Well the wedding happened. It was definitely a lot different then any other wedding I have been to but that is ok. My dress didn't fit real well as I suspected it wouldn't. It was too tight around my belly since I was carrying the baby so high and then the zipper puckered in the back. My top was too big but then was also too low and I felt that my bra was always showing. My hem was longer in the front then it was in the back. But that is past now.

The next weeks were pretty uneventful. Just getting ready for Christmas and the baby. However, the friday before we were going to have the baby Harper rolled off the couch and landed on the drying rack I had set up and knocked out one of her front teeth. She is fine and it came out completely and cleanly so it should not affect anything later in her life. We just have to wait for her permanent tooth to come in.

Now on to the big news. Friday morning we went to the hospital bright and early at 7:30 am. I was past my due date so the doctor decided it would be ok to get things going since I had been making some progress on my own. He broke my water about 8:30 and about 8 hours later we had our little boy. Waylon Dean weighted 8 lbs 2 oz. He is doing really well. Sleeping a lot and wanting to eat a lot which makes it hard for this mommy to get sleep during the night. I have not been taking as many naps during the day as I thought I would want to but I think I will the rest of this week especially since Harper is not her. My sister is watching her this week so we can get settled in with Waylon. I miss her so badly though. I know things this week are easier without her but I still miss her especially when Colby is at work at night. It is really hard for me and it makes me want to cry missing both of them so much. I know its ok to cry and I have. I just want my family together and my husband here at night. Colby made a suggestion today and he though I wouldn't like it but he was completely wrong. He wants to start looking for a job on days be it at Twin City or somewhere else. It has to pay just as much or more then his current job but we would both love for him to be on days. He has been waiting at Twin City since he started for a day position to open up for him but nothing has yet. I hope he can find something somewhere soon. I really HATE him working nights!!

Well Waylon is telling me he is hungry so I better wrap it up.
