Bruiser

Wayne's co- workers have started calling Madison Bruiser. It has always been appropriate since she is very tough and lets all the other kids know it. Now it is even more appropriate since she has gotten her first black eye. Last Sunday we were up at my parents when her cousin ran into her, and she fell over. Normally this would not be a problem and she would just get back up as if nothing happened, but she fell onto a rocking chair. This caused her to cut the skin at the corner of her eye. She is fine now and there dose not seem to be any damage to her eye, but she has received her first black eye, and with how she is it will probably not be her last.


the next day it was slightly purple.


Wednesday it was definatley black and blue.

Beautiful Madie

I love having a professional photographer in the family. My dad got this picture of Madie on the day Collin was born, and it is fabulous. This is one that needs to go on the wall.

I have been trying to get these pictures up for a few days now, but it is very difficult since Collin dose not like to be set down even if he is asleep. Today he was much better and would lay down by himself, if he had a pacifier.


This family picture was taken when he was about one hour old.


Madison loves her brother. She is constantly coming up saying "hug, hug, hug". The only problem is that she dose not understand that he is too small to play, so she gets a little too rough with him.

It's a Boy!!!

Collin Wayne was born Wednesday January 21, 2009 at 1:08pm.

The end is near

Last week I went in for my weekly doctors appointment, my doctor was not available that day so I saw the mid wife that she works with. She was checking on the postition of the baby, and could not tell if he was head down so she sent me in for a fourth ultrasound. Turns out Collin is in the correct position, so no worries, but they are estimating he is about 9.8 pounds, AHHHHHHHHHH. So I now have an appointment next week to be induced. They will not induce me until I am 39 weeks so I wait while this baby gets bigger every day. On the plus side at my appointment this week I was already 2 cm dilated, without feeling any contractions. I am hoping to gain 3 or 4 more cm before I go to be induced so that it will be a quick labor once again. I am praying that he stops gaining weight and that he stays under 10 lbs. 9.15 maybe, 10 no way. I have already started losing my baby weight. While Collin gets bigger, I get smaller. Over the last two weeks I have lost 5 lbs. How, I don't know, I am less active, and eating about the same. It is truly a mystery.
