Violet 2 weeks old

Violet is a gorgious baby! I know I'm bias since I'm the mom, but I'm not even exaggerating when I say almost everywhere we go people stop to look at her and say how beautiful she is. Once we were out to eat and this lady called her husband over to look at Violet, they went on and on how pretty she was, they were upset because they didn't have their camera with them. Who does that, take a picture of a baby you don't know? She must be cute!!!

Jade tries to get in just about every picture. This baby is malled consistently!

Man I wish I was that tan.

Cutiest yawn ever!!!

Our Family is Complete

Our sweet Violet is finally here, and we love her to pieces all ready. She is totally healthy, we had little scare when I was pregnant, but she is perfect, we are so blessed. She is absolutely beautiful for a newborn especially.

The c-section went well but all the prep before was a nightmare!!! They tried 4 times to do the IV, Seriously I had a student/intern doing it after the 3rd try the nurse took over, I already hate getting the IV so this was traumatic. Then they came to take blood, naturally it took the lady 3 tries. Now it is time for my spinal block, they first do a numbing shot, well big surprise the numbing shot only worked on half of my body, so a sharp shooting pain went down the whole side of my body when he started the spinal, he said whoa lets try something different when I screamed and jerked, he finally got me numb and away with the surgery. Was it everyones first day on the job??? At least she is here and we are doing great.

Here is Jared posing just before they took me back. We didn't get a picture of me, we were about to but they were in a hurry to get me back, the person before me was canceled.
Here she is born on February 26, 2008 at 7:54 , weighing 6 lbs 11 oz.

Jade couldn't be happier, she has been waiting so long to have a sister!

Violet had a lot of visitors, all her grandparents, Nicole, Cherie, Denise, Carol, Kelly,Brittany, Amber, Kendra,Brad, Suzy, Sevin, Nate, Jaime,Rob,and Jennie.
Just waiting to leave the hospital, and we took a couple last pictures.

Violets first time in her car seat.

When we were leaving the hospital one of the nurses flipped out over how cute Violet was and how decked out she was, she called over lots of nurses to come and check her out. It was cute.

Me and Violets baby shower

My baby shower was unreal!!! If you missed it you missed out, and it's not tacky to brag since I wasn't the one throwing it. Kelly truly went all out, her mom and Katie came in town for it, man did I feel special,they were so sweet and helped so much. My mom,Britt, Kellie Boyack, Michelle, Marci, Denett, and Jennie also helped a ton with the food and games. My friends are so great. My mom made an awsome diaper cake, and Jade and Sevin made me one too all by themselves, they were so proud. The colors of the shower were hot pink, and black, Kellys mom brought some zebra fabric and hot pink fabric to drape around the tables, it was perfect, everything looked amazing! The food was mexican themed, since it's my favorite, it was soooo good! Then for dessert we had pazzucis ( I have know idea how to spell it). Seriously it was one the best showers I have been to, thanks to those who love me. Later the next week some friends that had missed it were so bummed, they said they heard it was amazing. I felt so loved, and got so much adorable things for Violet,thanks to everyone that was apart of it.

This was one of the games, it was out in front of the house by the door for a cute decoration, then for the game you had to remember what was on it. Kellie Boyack was in charge of this, what a cute idea, especially since I got to keep everything on it!!!
Me in the hot seat, about to open all my presents.
Jade and Sevin were such cute helpers, they were there every step of the way!

My mom got me this Moses basket, it is so cute. I can't wait to put Violet in it.
