First day of school

Today was Cade's first day at school. I had to wake him up and thought that he was going to get mad but surprisingly he was all smiles and giggles. It made it harder to take him to school. He was not a happy camper when he was put in his carseat which was expected but calmed down once we got on the interstate. It was really cute.......he held my finger the whole car ride and I did not want to let him go when we arrived. Anyway, when we got there, we met Ms. Sharon, the daycare director. She handles all of the kids in the morning until the teachers arrive. She definitely had her hands full this morning. Cade just sat and looked around wide-eyed not making a peep. Ms. Sharon took him and he just layed his head on her shoulder and started to drift off.......not a care in the world. Meanwhile, I have to make a beeline for the door before tears start to flow. I made it to the car composed and makeup still in tact. I am still hanging in there. I can keep feeling my eyes well up with tears but I am being strong. I know that he is going to love going to school with the other babies but I just wish it didn't have to be so soon. I will post a picture from this morning soon. He had his cute plaid overalls and new shirt on. He looked so handsome! I can't wait to pick him up this afternoon.

Last night of freedom before I have to try and get back on a sleeping schedule for work on Monday........wait that's funny.......a sleeping schedule with the little guy??? I wonder how long someone can keep truckin on 3 1/2 hours of sleep?? I guess we will find out. It's my fault, karma I guess. I kept giving a guy at work a hard time when his baby was born. He would come to work half alive and I would ALWAYS tell him that MY baby was going to sleep through the night and that sleep deprivation was not going to be a problem for me. HA!

This will be Justin's first off days alone with the little guy. I wish that I could be a fly on the wall. He thinks that HE will be able to catch up on all of the housework that has somehow fell behind. I need to make a bet...
His mom is on call just in case. Poor Justin......gotta love him.

Sad days.....

It's officially my last week off of work with my little guy:( I have really enjoyed being a SAHM for the last seven weeks but of course reality is about to set back in. I will go back to work on the 4th and Cade will start school on the 11th. He will be spending time with his grandma's the week in between. I know that I would go crazy being a SAHM forever but I would love to be able to for awhile........oh well.

Here are a few pics of our little guy.

Wow! Its been a long time since I updated this thing. Our little man was born on June 9th at 5:21pm. He was 8lbs 2ozs and 19 inches. I went in for a normal doctors appointment on the 9th and the doc said that there was no way that I was going to make it to the scheduled cesarean so he wanted me to go to triage and monitor my contractions and we would probably do the section in the morning!! I went to have my contractions monitored and something that the doctor saw made him want to go ahead with the section that afternoon!!!!!!!! Needless to say, I called Justin and told him to get to the hospital and to call everyone else on the way. He made it just in time and was put in to scrubs and hurried to the OR to meet me. The section went great and he came out screaming at the top of his lungs! Justin got to walk him up to our room while the doctors finished stitching me up. He said that the screaming did not stop the entire time.........and he was still screaming when I got there. Finally he calmed down and we got to cuddle with him.

To be continued........the little guy just woke up from his nap.
