Our Miracle Baby!

She's here! Ayzie Lynn Honey was born Sept 4, 2008 at 4:08 in the morning!(It was a long night!) She weighed 6lbs 12oz and was 18in long. It was the most amazing experience of my life! I went into the doctor sept 3rd for my appt and was dilated almost to a six, so he striped my membranes and we left, that was about 5:30 pm. We went out to dinner and by 7:45 pm I was having contractions. I actually went into labor on my own! We got to the hospital about 10:00pm and I had her at 4 in the morning. My longest labor yet! I was so scared to have her because of everything I knew we would be facing, and I was about to see how severe the cleft was. When it was time I started crying but new that I had no choice and couldn't turn back now. When she came out Dr. Lunt was just looking at her and he put his finger in her mouth, then looked at me and said, "there is nothing wrong with this baby!" I didn't believe him until he held her up for me, and then I saw that she didn't have a cleft, she was perfect! I started sobbing, Carson was crying, it was an emotional delivery room. Everyone was crying including all the nurses! For the rest of the time I was in the hospital everyone kept calling her the "miracle baby". That is exactly what she is, a miracle baby! The doctors were all stunned and couldn't explain it. Some people have asked me if I'm mad at the doctors for putting me through all of this, and I say there is no reason to be mad at them because it was there, there was a cleft. Carson & I saw it at all of our ultrasounds, and so did the Perinatologist and the ultrasound technicians! At all of my ultrasounds it was there every time. I now know the power of prayer and blessings. I feel like it was Heavenly Father's way of saying I'm really here and if you just have faith in me, anything is possible! It has been the most amazing experience of our lives!

Cole and Ellie adore her, and never stop looking, touching and holding her! I'm so glad that they love her and I don't have to worry about anyone being mean, but to be honest they are driving me crazy!! I'm constantly saying stop touching her, get out of her face! I'm sure everyone knows exactly what I'm talking about. Hopefully once the newness wears off it will be better, until then I just constantly have to have an eye on them at all times.

I can't believe we're a family of 5! I feel so blessed to have 3 beautiful kids!

Crazy Ellie!

I just had to post these pictures because I think they are hilarious! Ellie decided to put on her headbands all by herself! I asked her if she could see and she said, "no" so I asked her if she wanted me to fix it for her and she said, "No! I look like a pirate!" She is so goofy and is always making us laugh! I love you my Ellie Belly!

Toquerville Falls

Last weekend we decided to take the kids swimming (wading) at Touquerville falls. They had a lot of fun playing in the water, catching frogs, and watching crazy people do cliff diving into shallow water! We had a good time but I am really surprised I didn't go into labor from the horrible bumpy road. If that road didn't put me in labor I don't think anything will!

Baby Shower

My sweet friends Dorothy & Stacey decided to give me a baby shower. It was actually a breakfast, wear your comfies shower. It was a lot of fun! We had waffles, played some games, and visited. Thank you to all my friends and family that came, it really means a lot to me. Thank you so much Stacey and Dorothy for everything. I couldn't ask for better friends!

Congratulations Carson!

Carson finally got his Journeyman license! After 4 years of school and 1 year of taking tests he finally got his licence in the mail! He has worked for so long and so hard to get there and he made it. I am so proud of him and everything he does to support our family!
