Baby update

So our little guy is attempting to make his debut pretty early.
Tuesday all day I had terrible back pain and just didn't feel right. By about 10pm I was starting to contract regularly and then by 12:30 am Wednesday I was contracting about 4 min apart. My dr was out of town so I just called labor and delivery at the hospital and they said to come in and they would check me out. So I packed my bag and since it was the middle ofthe night and Taylor was sick and Maec was sleeping so I just went in by myself and got there at about 1 am. They hooked me up to the monitors and watched me for a few hours and my contractions slowed to 7 min apart and then finally to 10 min apart so they said in could go home if I wanted. Before I left she wanted to Check my cervix and she said "your cervix is open but not where the baby is at." which made no sense to me at all to me. I thought it was either open or closed!?!? So i finally got home about 5 am.
I called my Dr.s office when they opened at 8 to notify them I had been at the hospital and they said to come in at 1 when Stacy the PA got back. So I went in and she checked me and I am dilated to a 1 and 50% effaced and they gave me a steroid shot to help develop the babys lungs. They also gave me a prescription for a medicine that is suppose to relax my uterus and slow the contractions. I have to take it every 6 hours which is a pain to wake up at 4 am and take but I will do what I have to do to help him in anyway.
Today I went in and had to get another steroid shot for his lungs. We are hoping for him to stay in at least a few more weeks but if he doesnt we are hoping the shots helped his lungs.
For now I am on bed rest. I'm so grateful for our families bringing dinner and helping out with Maec!
So we are asking when you say your prayers to keep this little guy in your prayers!
We are finding out he is more and more like his dad and he isn't even here yet! That scary for me! Another Taylor??? What will I do with myself!
We have two names that we are thinking about...which do you like?
Kash or Garyson
Tell us what you think!!

Bed rest round two...

On Sunday I started bleeding again so back on bed rest I went and today is suppose to be my last day hopefully. I am just waiting for a call back from Dr. Hall. I have a few banks I need to run to later so hopefully I get the ok to be up and about.
I can already tell this boy is going to be trouble. He comes by it honestly. Have you met Taylor? :)
I am so grateful for my sweet girl, Maec. Today we were sitting on my bed after I finished doing her hair and she takes the brush and moves behind me and starts brushing my hair and peeks around and laughs. Then she grabs my neck from behind and gives me a big hug. Children are the most amazing blessing. I learn so much from Maecie. She can sure push my buttons but she can also melt my heart.
I'm so grateful to be a mother. To be a mother that gets to stay at home with my kids. Grateful that I can do my work at nap time and bedtime.
I have so much gratitude in my heart. Partly because it's The holiday season coming up and partly because of trials I see others going through. On October 19, my friend and I both had terrible days but fortunately my day wasn't the nightmare hers was. I pray her and her family have comfort in this trial. I'm grateful for her positive attitude and example she has been through this.

Come on little guy...stay in much longer!!

Scary days...

Yesterday after noon I started bleeding and passing large clots and so my Dr. sent me for an ultrasound. I couldn't help but be emotionally overwhelmed when I talked to my Dr. I had to wake Maecie up from her nap and take her to Taylor. I was so worried but I said a prayer as I walked in for the ultrasound and  I had a sense of peace come over me as soon as I saw him on the monitors.  Our little guy looks good. They are unable to determine where the bleeding is coming from. The whole ultrasound we could watch my contractions just one upon another. I had terrible contractions all night, but today they are not as intense thank goodness. So I am on bed rest for a few days and I go back tomorrow for a check up. Hopefully I won't be on bed rest too much longer. With a 20 month old bed rest isn't too easy! Thankfully Maec LOVES Mickey Mouse Club House. I can't lift her much so we are camped out on the couch watching TV and playing on the Ipad. Thank you modern technology!
I will try to get caught up on my blogging the next few days and load the pictures from our ultrasounds.Also, I have so many pictures from the last few months that I need to document.

Please pray for my family!

My cousin's 4 year old daughter has been diagnosed with Cancer and needs all they prayers and blessings she and her family can get. Please help us and pray for little Jessica.

She's a fighter.
I can't imagine being in her parents shoes. I pray for Cody and Chandra and little Jessica during such a hard time. I tear up and cry everytime I think about it. Not an hour goes by that I don't think about them.
Please take a few extra minuets during your prayers and pray for Cody, Chandra, Jessica and all of the family!
Thank you! The prayers are greatly appreciated!
