I can't believe Loren is 2!

Today my little girl turns 2! I can't believe how fast time has went by. On May 13, 2006 was Mothers Day, I had been feeling some contractions but nothing to much. I stayed home from church and just relaxed. Later that day I went to my mother n laws for dinner (Logan was working). After dinner we decided to make brownies, I could hardly stand there, my back and feet hurt so much and my feet were way swolen. When I went home that night I was really tired and went straight to bed. I got up around 1 am to go to the bathroom and at that time I was feeling really good. Well about 2 am my water broke, in bed! I woke Logan up and told him I thought my water broke, but maybe I just peed the bed cause nothing else was happening. I got up and the second I stood up there was another gush of water! Being my first pregnancy and all I wasn't sure about all this so I called my aunt Joann cause my mom wasn't answering. I got to the hospital about 4:30, whats funny is we only live a matter of maybe 10 minutes away. I started having contractions soon after. It really sucked cause my contractions were stacking and so I was getting no relief in between. As one would hit really hard and barely start coming down another one would hit really hard. Loren finally arrived at 1:13 pm weighing 7 lbs 1 oz and 19 1/2 inch long! Logan, my mom and Penny was in there for the delivery and everything went great. Loren has brought so much joy to my life! I could never really explain how much I love her and she means to me. Even though she is hard headed and stubborn and can throw the biggest temper I have ever seen (and I've seen a lot), she is the biggest sweetheart and has such a soft heart. Loren loves her little brother more than I could have imagined and can't wait till her dad gets home at night. Happy Birthday Loren, we love you very much!

Random Pictures

In my previous post I mentioned how we did pictures of the kids for Penny for Mothers Day. Well I had caught some cute pictures of my kids and I just had to share them. Also Loren climbed in the bassanet the other day and sat in there forever and watched cartoons so I had to capture and share those pictures as well. She is such a little HAM!!!! The other day in the car I told her "no" and she rolled her eyes at me and said "jeez". She is so cute but such a little stink at the same time. Jaxon is just a growing, I think he will be an early crawler just so he can get to his sister and get whatever she has, LOL. Hope you all enjoy these pictures, I know I enjoy every single one!

Mothers Day

I can't believe it was my 2nd Mother's Day, with 2 beautiful children! 2 years ago Loren was born the day after Mother's Day, it was crazy. I had a good day, we woke up and went to church and than had a little nap. Later that day we went to Penny's house (Logan's mom) for some Papa Murphys Pizza. I was a little bummed cause Logan had to work and I really would have liked to be with my mom, of course. But I made the best of what I had. Logan made me a homemade card and it meant more than anything to me. This year Brynn (logan's sister) and I decided to take pictures of the kids and give them to Penny for mothers day. This is what we came up with. It was a very long day and its not easy working with a 2 yr old, 7 and 5 month old.
