Nash Michael

Nash Michael was born on Tuesday August 11th at 1:29 pm. He weighed 8 lbs. 20 1/2 inches. I was so lucky and begged my doctor to induce me on Monday. I was already dilated to a 3 and my doctor said that I owed him because he would induce on my due date, and with your first he usually doesn't do that. I was so ready to be done being pregnant and couldn't imagine waiting another week. We went in Tuesday morning at 6:30 am and I was already dilated to a 4 on my own. By like 7 :45 was put on pitocin and my doctor broke my water at like 8:15. I was ready for an epidural by that point and it was smooth sailin from that point on. I started to go on my own like 30 min after and was taken off pitocin. Nash was born a few hours after and it was so fun having my family all there. (at least everyone but Cam) Nash was healthy and beautiful! He hardly cried and seemed to calm himself down!! It was such an amazing experience and went a lot better than I planned for...at least the labor part. Nash is so cute and such a good baby. He has Sean's nose and eyes I think and my families chin. He also has the longest hands, fingers, toes, and feet!!! Mom and Nash are both doing well and healthy and that's all I could ask for!!! We are some proud parents and think we make a pretty cute baby!!!!!

4 more weeks!!

So here are just a few pics that were taken a few weeks ago, I am already bigger and more pregnant. We only have 4 weeks left until my due date, but the doctor ensures me that I will go over. That's just something I knew but don't want to hear from the doctor. I went to the doctor yesterday and they said that Nash's head is starting to go down and that I'm not dilated at all yet. I figured so! I have been feeling pretty good for the most part, I am still able to do spin about 4 days a week and work a couple. I really do feel too good to go into labor...at least I think so. The only thing that is uncomfortable are nights. I am carrying really high and so when I lie down at night I sometimes feel like I can't get enough oxygen, but it really is fine. I was able to have a baby shower a couple of weeks ago and got so many fun things! It is starting to feel more real and I am really getting excited for little Nash to come!! Hopefully everything in the next couple of weeks goes well, I'm pretty sure with my track record that I might not make another post until after he comes. Hopefully I am wrong but we'll see.

I am the worst blogger!!

Easter Sunday

San Francisco

Sean's 27th birthday!

Little Nash

Disneyland Ok, so it's been a few good months since I have updated or put anything on our blog. We have been pretty busy lately and before that I was too sick to sit at a computer and update our blog. So some of the things happening in our life go like this...most importantly we are having a baby boy on August 12th, hopefully no later and are so excited!! I was very sick and still have some moments, but for the most part I'm doing a lot better. I'm starting to show now and so it makes it a little more real than before. We also moved to Rocklin to be close to family and out of the heat before I got too big! Sean is still working for AT&T and I am currently not working!! I have helped out in my Dad's office a few times and need to find something permanent soon. Sean turned 27 last Tuesday and we were able to go to San Francisco for a night. It was really fun to get away for even just a night. We just did the typical SF stuff, it was really relaxing though. I was able to go to Disneyland with Lindsey and Rob for Zoie's 4th birthday. We had a lot of fun and it was really fun seeing the girls there. I was not able to go on any of the the big rides and saw a glimpse of what life would be like in 5 short months!! It was a lot of fun though. And yesterday, Easter Sunday was a lot of fun. We usually go to the coast but this year it didn't work out so we were able to spend it with Lindsey, Rob, and the girls, my Dad, and some friends form our ward. It was a lot of fun and very relaxing! So life is pretty good right now, not much to complain about. Except for the fact that I'm starting NOT to fit into all my clothes, it's kind of depressing...We are so blessed and so excited for the next couple of months!

ANOTHER UPDATE

WELL WELL WELL........ANOTHER 2 MONTHS HAS GONE BY AND WE HAVEN'T UPDATED THE BLOG AT ALL. I WONDER WHY WE EVEN HAVE ONE BUT IT IS FUN TO GET ON HERE AND CHECK UP ON EVERYBODY. AS YOU CAN TELL I AM AT WORK BORED AGAIN AND WHEN I GET BORED I WRITE. SO I JUST WANTED TO LET EVERYONE KNOW WHAT HAS BEEN GOIN ON THE LAST COUPLE MONTHS.

I MENTIONED IN OUR LAST POST THAT WE WERE PATIENTLY WAITING ON A JOB TRANSFER WITH AT&T. JUST TO LET EVEYONE KNOW IT WAS A HUGE ORDEAL THAT TOOK ALOT OF WORK, FASTING, PRAYING AND ALOT OF HEADACHES. BUT AFTER 3 MONTHS OF WORKING ON IT MY TRANSFER WAS FINALLY APPROVED ABOUT 2 WEEKS AGO. SO WHAT THAT MEANS IS THAT OUR HOUSE IS A DISASTER WITH BOXES AND RANDOM STUFF ALL OVER THE PLACE AND WE WILL PACK IT UP ON THURSDAY AND MOVE UP TO ROCKLIN, CA. IT ALL HAPPENED REALLY FAST ONCE THE TRANSFER WAS COMPLETED. CHELSEAS MOM AND DAD ARE COMING DOWN TO HELP US DRIVE UP AND I START WORK AT MY NEW STORE IN CITRUS HEIGHTS ON MONDAY THE 16TH. I REALLY CAN'T BELIEVE THAT WE ARE REALLY MOVING. OF COURSE I AM BIASED HAVING GROWN UP HERE IN PHOENIX, BUT I AM GOING TO MISS IT HERE. I THINK CHELSEA AND I HAVE REALLY GROWN HERE. WE WERE ALL BY OURSELVES AND HAD TO FIGURE EVERYTHING OUT ON OUR OWN AND I THINK THAT REALLY HELPED US. WITH THAT BEING SAID WE ARE REALLY EXCITED TO LIVE BY FAMILY.

BESIDES THAT....CHELS CONTINUES TO GET MORE PREGGERS EVEN THOUGH SHE DOESNT LOOK LIKE IT. THE SICKNESS IS SLOWLY GOING AWAY AND SHE SEEMS TO IMPROVE EVERY WEEK. WE JUST KNOW TO STAY AWAY FROM CERTAIN FOOD!!!! WE HAD AN ULTRASOUND YESTERDAY AND MY WILDEST DREAMS WERE CONFIRMED THAT WE WILL BE HAVING A BOY!!!!! I RAISED MY ARMS IN VICTORY WHEN I SAW THE LITTLE JOHNSON!! IT WAS GREAT. HIS NAME IS GOING TO BE NASH AND WE CAN'T WAIT UNTIL HE GETS HERE. WE ARE SO BLESSED AND REALLY HAVE SEEN THOSE BLESSINGS IN A BIG WAY IN THE LAST MONTH OR SO. WE ARE EXCITED FOR ALL THE CHANGES.

A little update

Hey everybody, it's Sean. We are the worst bloggers and I apologize that we haven't put up anything from the holidays but oh well. Just wanted to update everyone a little on whats going on with us. We are anxiously awaiting word on a job transfer for me. I am trying to transfer with AT&T to a store up in Sacramento. We have been waiting for a little while and with the economic situation we could be waiting a little while longer. Chels got to spend 2 weeks with her family over the holidays which she loved while I was down here working. It wasn't all bad though because I got to watch my Utah Utes go undefeated and win the Sugar Bowl.

Besdies that we got some exciting news...............We are expecting our first little one on August 12. We are really excited, but these first couple weeks haven't been easy. Chelsea has been pretty sick but with the help of our doctor and a friend in our ward she has some medicine that helps her a little bit. So we are hoping these next 7 months go by fast so we can hopefully have a son!!!!!(Chels of course wants a girl). We hope everyone is doing well.
