Baby Jimmer Thomas Pearson

Little Jimmer has arrived. He came 3 1/2 weeks early but still weighed 7.1 0z and was 20 inches long. ...and most importantly he is totally healthy. I didn't have to repeat a c-secton which was awesome and what I was hoping for... Drew was hoping as well... saved us lots of $$. The boys love him... so far. Especially Danny... can't give the baby enough kisses... and has almost toppled him over in the swing a few times :).

This experience was SO different than it was with Danny. It all started with my water breaking around 8:30 at night on the 3rd while, I was giving the boys a bath. We got to the hospital at 10:00 and I had only one contraction in the car on the way over. Walked into Labor and Delivery totally calm telling them I was fine, no pain. So they took us to a room and wanted to make sure my water really did break. No one came to see us for about an hour... Like I said I was feeling fine so they weren't to worried about us. I had two contractions in that hour.... and then they hit like the fireworks on this fourth of July. I was a 4 when I went in and I went from a 4 to a 10 in a hour. I can't even explain how much pain I was in!!! I was screaming at the top of my lungs at Drew and everyone in the room. "I want an epidural!!" "How do women do this.... I don't want to do this!!" "Drew we aren't having anymore kids!" ... These were just a few Drew reminds me of. They didn't realize how fast I was progressing and they had to get some lab results on my kidneys and liver because of my high protein levels before they could give me an epidural.

While I was hunched over getting my epidural I started screaming that I wanted to push... they hurried and checked me when he was through and the nurse yelled "she's 100 percent get her midwife here!" ... she was on her way to the hospital at this point. She got there and although he was posterior like Danny was he arrived safe and sound. It all happened so fast and so painfully! I really don't know how woman do it with out drugs!! Must be strong woman.

Anyways he is here and I am so happy! So far we think he looks a lot like Drew's dad. He's not a great eater which has been hard and he has a little Jaundice that we are dealing with. But we love him in our family and so happy to have these three little boys in my life!

Ahhhh Summer might finally be here

He's a little fish... he'd stay in the water swimming all day if you'd let him.

Ready.

Set.

Go!

We took the boys out on the lake last night... might be my last chance to get out on the lake before this baby comes! We had a great time and I loved seeing my boys out on the water. Danny on the EZ ski and perfectly content just sitting there and then Ty getting on the ski! He did so great no tears or anything. Except we couldn't get him to actually stand up... he was squatted like this the entire time... till we stopped the boat... what a little stud. So proud of my boys!

My good camera died this week... was pulled off the counter. So the photos aren't to great, but we do what we can... $200.00 to fix my camera!!! Ughhh..... and Drew is not going to be willing to pay it I just know it! I might be calling to borrow a camera when this baby comes!

32 weeks!

I never had nice maternity photos taken when I was pregnant with Danny and really regretted it so I had to with this pregnancy. Thank you Sarah for the photos! LOVE them! She got some great shots of the boys I'll have to post later.

Easter

We spent Easter in St. George with Drew's parents and other family and friends. It was great... great because we were wearing shorts all weekend!! Easter was great... filled with Easter Egg hunts, pillow pets from the Easter Bunny, church, dying the cutest little monster eggs!, and yummy dinner that Connie always puts together. ... love Easter!

Belly shots

I've been such a slacker at taking photos lately! So finally Drew took some prego pictures so at least there would be some documentation of this pregnancy! Here's the baby belly... almost 26 weeks along and really starting to feel it! You know the "Oh this is much harder to bend down " and "I can't breath... or sleep!" phase. The no sleep is killing me! Mostly because my patience is really short with my boys and I find myself yelling at them more than usual and then I feel bad and cry about it... ha ha ha I am an emotional mess! But all and all I can't complain I have great pregnancies except for swelling and a bit of high blood pressure that I have been keeping in the "safe" range... thanks to cheerios :)

Little Jimmer is VERY active... I'm a little nervous cause Danny is our energizer bunny and just keeps going and going... the thought of two energizer bunnies so close in age exhausts me! :)

Here are some recent pics of the boys... they let me do their hair the other day and now Ty wants it done every day!
