An aunt, again!

I think I am a little over excited because for once, and finally, we have a little girl in this huge mix of boys! Claire Emery Olsen was born May 18th, in a record birth of a little over 2 hours! She is 7lbs 9 oz, 19 1/2 inches long and is utterly adorable!! They boys seem to have fallen in love with her already! I cannot wait to see her this weekend! Sorry Michael, but I need to go shopping. I am so excited!!


Caleb also being the adorable little cuddle bug he is, got to go home yesterday! He's so precious and sweet! I am so thankful he bounced back! He is definitely a miracle baby! =)

Another week in the books. Although, I wasn't at work at all. Which I feel horrible about. I hate leaving work for others to do. I just felt that it was better to be with family and just be able to be accessible. Back to a full work week next week. Sadly, I have a feeling it will be hard to get use to.
Caleb is doing well. Kelly got to hold him and feed him. It was so sweet. He is such an adorable little love bug. He had his eyes open and was looking all around. He's been doing really well with his feedings and he is just a sweet little thing! 

Today I took the day off. I was going to probably have to take another half day anyways. It just made sense to take a full day. Eli stayed with my parents last night. My dad and him had a little camp out in the living room. So cute! This morning, Jake and I got up, ate breakfast and played for a while and then headed over to my moms. As she got ready, I took the boys outside and we played and played and played. I finally broke out the bubbles in order to catch a break! We then packed up the boys and headed over to McDonald's. We got the boys their Happy Meals and headed to the park. After a carbo-load of a lunch, we spent a few hours playing on the playground. For some reason today, I felt like a kid and participated a little too much. I think I was channeling Michael. It was a lot of fun and the boys had a blast running off steam. We then headed back to my parents house and we all took a nap. That was amazing. Next thing I knew it was 3:30 and we had to head out. It was such a fun day and the boys loved being able to be together. They are so cute together. 

Although, now I'm beat. I think this week has taken a lot of me. Everyone. Michael is getting ready to head out to a movie and I am looking forward to a quiet house tonight! Time to kick back and relax!

I'm beat. All I want to do is sleep. I could sleep for a week. I swear. 

Caleb - he had to have a blood transfusion last night to regulate his blood pressure. Honestly, I don't think the doctors quite know anything, so of course, we know nothing. His swelling is still where it was at yesterday. I know they were looking forward to it going down a little bit. Kelly finally did get to see him. That is a plus. He is going to have to have another transfusion tonight. His hemoglobin is pretty low. They are going to do a CT tomorrow morning. We just have to keep praying. Praying for a speedy recovery and praying for my sister. I couldn't even imagine not being able to hold your child immediately and just the bonding process. I know it's starting to hit her. It's just a tough situation all the way around. I, and I know everyone else, just want to know what's going on. Power of prayer is what is getting everyone through. It has been a tough week for everyone. My mom had something funky going on with her voice today, so she couldn't go to the hospital. My dad stopped by after work. Michael is going to come down with me tomorrow evening. I hope my mom feels better ASAP. I know it's killing her not being able to be there. 

Nothing else is really going on. Besides it's raining again. I like in Forks. Except there are no hot Vampire/Werewolves running around. That is the whole point of loving Forks.

New nephew!!


After a long, exhausting day for all parties involved, Caleb made his debut. He is currently in the NICU but is doing well. I swear we still don't know all that is going on, but we've just been praying for a speedy recovery for him and my sister! We are very blessed to have another baby to spoil with love!

Good day when...

1) You can spend $57 at Target over lunch on unnessesary things.
2) Have Derrick yell "COP" in the backseat as I floor Ruby. He saved me from a ticket.
3) Having a one on one about chickens, no joke
4) Having Josie "get down" in Ruby
5) When Derrick hits the high note on "Somebody to Love" by GLEE, I pull out bubbles and blow a few in the car.

The week went by extremely fast. Still no babies. On either side. Keeping my fingers crossed that at least Baby Girl Olsen makes her appearance this weekend.

Cinco de Mikey

2 batches of my brownies are in the oven. To Josie's liking, they are de-squizzled. So that means she has to eat some! One pan still might be used as a leverage to get Katie back. We will have to see how nice I feel in the morning!

Happy Early Birthday Mikey!

Also forgot!

I was just rudely, yes, I will say rudely reminded that I didn't write about my wonderful start to my day today. Last night I could fall asleep, so around 10:30, I decided to paint my nails. I woke up at 2:30 with my left hand attached to my face. I fell asleep before my nails could dry and my four fingers were stuck to my cheek. A couple cotton swabs of finger nail polish remover later, it was off. It was still a first for me. Something I never want to repeat.
