Quite a day!!

We have had quite the day today......

well mike woke up this morning at about 6:30. did his usual morning stuff. well then he had a major side ache.. he couldnt sit, stand, lay down, or anything. so about 7:45 he says we need to go to the ER. im thinking, "this is bad, he doesnt go to the Er unless he is hurting bad" so i called his sister and she came out and watched the kids, while we went to the ER.

well they did tests and catscans, and come to find out... Mike has......Kidney stones. YUCK!!!!!

well the dr said he had 1, thats all 1 i had "rock beds" which nothing came out for me.

so we stayed there, they said its right next to the bladder so hopefully it just drops in. as soon as they drop, the pain goes away. well it was about 12:00 and he was having absolutley no pain. so we got the dr and asked if we could go home. so about an hour later. we got home.

well at about 4 he passed that little thing. and i mean small. it was the size of a little mustard seed.

never realized that something so small, could cause so much pain. but he is okay now and it was only one. boy am i glad that is over.

3 Years Old

I know this is a late post.

Cooper turned 3 on July 15th. we didnt do anything he got some clothes from mom and dad. and a fishing pole which he just loves. we celebrated more on friday, it was his cousin brooklyns birthday. so we just combined the too.





Here is his story.
we went in at 9am on the 14th. where i got induced. my dr. said that he would be back at 10 to break my water, and it would go fast. but cooper had his own plan. well my dr did come back at 10 but i wasnt making progress. so i was put on pit and told to wait. Oh i waited, and waited, and waited. the dr finally came back at 11pm and broke my water. then i got my epidural i didnt care what happened after that. well at about 2am they had to give me a shot to stop the contractions, cause he couldnt handle them. well at about 7am on the 15th they woke me up and were going to send me home. cause i was there 22 hours and i was almost dialated to a 4. i told them i was not going home, and to do a c-section. well cooper graced us with his presence at 7:52am. he was 8lbs. 10oz. 20.5" . he didnt cry when he came out. they tickled his feet, finally letting out a coo. and mike said that when he came out he was flipping the world off.





We Love you Cooper!
