It's been a while....

It seems like it's been a while since I've posted...probably because I have been taking care of a newborn!!

It's kind of what I remember, and it's not at the same time. I just know it was way easier when I was 18...even though that sounds so weird! I love it though!

He is sucha good baby, just like Sydni was! He sleeps 4 hours, sometimes 5 1/2!!! He eats like a little piggy. He sucks down 4-5 ounces every time he eats!! He weighed 9lbs12oz when he was born, left the hospital at 9lbs5oz. Weighed 9lbs6oz at 1 week, and at his 2 week appt he weighed 10lbs3oz!!!! What a big boy!!

Sydni is just in LOVE with him. She kisses him goodbye when she leaves for school in the morning. She loves holding him and helping out, like packing his diaper bag, getting the diaper and wipes ready for a change, etc.

I'm so glad he's here!!! :-)

Liam James Marshall!!!



Liam made his arrival very quickly!! I was induced on November 4th and started my petocin at 10:10am. By around 2pm I was 5-6cm and they broke my water. By 4:15pm I was 8cm, and by 4:25pm I was 9.5cm! I started pushing soon after and by 5:06pm, he was here!!! Piece of cake!

And his big sister was so overwhelmed! She didn't know what to do or say and was afraid to touch him incase she hurt him.

She came around the next day and now she can't get enough of him!!

Gender: Allllll boy....it's been verified 3 times!

I'm counting down the days!! Less than 2 weeks to go and I can't wait!!!!

What an ignorant bitch.

Yeah, I said it. She's an ignorant bitch. Check out with this dumbass said.



Okay, so now that you've read it, wtf??? Was she trying to come off as an insensitive bitch??? I mean, I can't even think of another word to call her....okay I can, but I won't let those colors show yet.

And then her apology? Okay, so she apologized. I'm pretty sure as a writer you brainstorm, rough draft, re draft, edit, proof read, re edit and then final read.....AND SHE STILL THOUGHT IT WAS OKAY! DAMN! So for me, fake apology. PLUS....how did that get by the main editor who edits everything? Like way to sell the name "Marie Claire" or alienate the name from all women, because who wants to put up with that shit????

And this (my opinion) all coming from a person (myself) who isn't overweight and that still pisses me off! Ugh. I'm disgusted.

Rant over....I think.
