Hello Everyone!! We had such a great weekend!! Shane and Ashley couldn't make because of a death of a close friend. So Jaxson got his ChaCha all to himself.

We were actually very productive this weekend! We had our first trip to the mall (had to take a quick break to nurse in a restroom... he got hungry) and we went to eat out!!

ChaCha help us get Jaxson on a better sleeping schedule so I can get more sleep. He is doing great at it and only wakes up around 2:00 AM and then again around 6:30 AM. I took full advantage of ChaCha being here and got to get a pedicure!!!! We also went to Target just mom and I and daddy watched Jax while we were gone. It was a fun weekend and of course I loved getting to hang out with my mom. Here are a few pictures from this weekend.



The cutest onsie!! A present from Aunt Jaimee... It is so freaking cute on him! Thank you Aunt Jaimee....
Just hanging out!

I don't have much time to type today... Jaxson is getting more and more active. I can not believe yesterday he was all ready a week old!! I have some pictures below to talk about our adventures the past couple of days.
Aunt Rachel and Jaxson... I think she is ready Chad!!

I love this picture!!!! All the grandparents with Jax!! So Cute!!!


On his way to his first doctors appointment. Everything went so great. This was on Tuesday the 19th.. The doctor said he is looking great and he will see us back on June 1st!


My two men!! So cute... This picture you can tell how tiny my little man Jax is! John is such a great daddy!!!



Jaxson's fist trip to the Deli. This is Nadia a coworker of mine. Everyone thought he was too cute... A little shocked how quiet he was since John and I are definitely not quiet!!




My little man and I having a great day... He was worn out after the deli and riding through the carwash with mom.... He is the greatest thing that has ever happened to us. I will update again soon... Shane, Ashley and my Mom are coming in this weekend so we will have lots more pictures soon.

Updates on Mallory & Jaxson

8:45 a.m.
Mallory was induced at 4 a.m. this morning. Her water was broken at 8:45 a.m. and she is dilated 1 cm and 80% effaced. She is having normal contractions, getting closer together, and comfortable. Now that her body is ready to go, Jaxson should arrive this afternoon!

Hospital Info:
Woman's Hospital
9050 Airline Highway
Baton Rouge, LA 70815

10:30 a.m.
Mallory just got an epidural!

1:15 p.m.
She is dilated 3-4 cm's, contractions are constant and intense. Nurse will check her again in 2 hours and thinks that she'll be between 6-8 cm's. It's getting close!!

2:15 p.m.
Mal is dilated 5 cm's and completely effaced! Her blood pressure dropped and Jaxson's heart rate dropped but they got it all under control with oxygen and putting her on her left side. Both Mal and Jaxson are doing great and making progress! They've lowered her Pitocin from 32 to 2 (not sure what the units are) since Jaxson wasn't responding well to it...he's too comfy in the womb and doesn't want to come out!!

3:45 p.m.
Mal is dilated a good 6 cm's. She is resting before the time comes to push! Not much longer.

5:45 p.m.
SHE'S PUSHING!! Jaxson will be here shortly!!!
