Our New Baby

Marley Shay Militoni

April 21, 2009

6 ibs. 10 ounces, 18 inches long

They induced me Tuesday April 21st at 10:20 am! My labor went really well this time, completely pain free which was a nice change from my experience with Alyviah. We had a beautiful baby girl at 4:19 p.m.
Here are a few pictures, I'm going to eventually put together a slide show because I have so many cute cute pictures!!

Alyviah is doing really great with the baby!! She is an amazing big sister, and its been so fun to see her with the baby. She has gone back to wanting to be a baby a little bit i.e. being wrapped up like a burrito is her new favorite thing :) Our sweet princess got jondice pretty bad, so today (Saturday April 25th) the hospital sent over lights for her to lay in all day! Its so sad. I hate not being able to hold her. She can only get out to eat and get her diaper changed. I can't wait till she is all better!!

Still Pregnant.

So its been over a week since my doctor told me he thought I would have little Marley....and still NO baby. And not from lack of trying...i tried everything :) but she's stubborn and just not ready to come. However my doctor loves me....and is inducing me Tuesday!! Wish us Luck!!

Dr. Monster

This last week Alyviah had her 2 Year Check up...it was miserable. Her doctor is Scott Mumford, but she can't say Mumford right, so she calls him Dr. Monster. He is an awesome doctor but she hates going and screams the whole time, even when the doctor is not in the room. She had to get 2 shots, which was so sad to watch. She seemed to of had a reaction to them because her leg got really bruised and had a huge red spot that covered her whole thigh. Is that normal?? I dont think it is sooo..I called the doctor but they haven't seemed to find the time to call me back.

I also had a doctor appointment this last week and it went super good. First I'm the biggest nerd ever, I thought I was due on April 30th, but my real due date is April 27th, yeah I'm not sure how I messed that one up. However I'm already dilated to a 2.5 so my doc thought I could go anytime this week..cross your fingers for me. I'm trying to be patient...but its not working, I'm just ready to see our little Marley.

UPDATE

I am a very bad blogger, I mostly just think its because my life is pretty boring and uneventful. I am now officially a "stay at home mom" and its not everything I thought it would be. Its boring. I clean, run errands and when its warm go play at the park with Alyviah, but since the weather has been so bad, we have been contained in the house and I'm going crazy. However, I have had plenty of time to get ready for baby Marley, and am happy to say she could come tomorrow and I'd be ready for her :)
Since I have had all this time on my hands I decided to go to the fabric store to make a blanket for our new addition, and I had every intention of sewing it myself......but things changed and I pinned the blanket together but had my mom sew it, and good thing she did, because it turned out amazing and I'm really excited about it.

So only 4 more weeks left until my official due date, but i'm crossing my fingers I don't last that long, and am hoping for her to come on the 18th. This pregnancy has been completely miserable and I've been sick the whole time so Wish me LUCK :)

Alyviah is also so excited for this baby to come. I think she's going to be a great big sister. She always is talking to my stomach and she'll come and put stickers on my stomach or put her toys by me and say she's sharing with baby mar. She is such a caring little girl. I have been craving raw macaroni noodles and ice this whole time, and everytime she see's me with out one of them she asks if I need my noodles or ice..its adorable. She is also always asking if I'm doing ok and asks if my stomach hurts, if I say yes she says "Sister be nice to mommy, dont hurt her" Its so cute. I am truly blessed to have such an amazing little girl!
