3yrs ago

About this time 3yrs ago my labor was really starting with Hayden.  About midnight is when my contractions set in.  His due date was Sept 15th and midnight on the 15th is when it all started.  I was already in the hospital being induced but up until that point had just had Cervadil, nothing to actually start contractions, they started on their own.  They come on quick and intense and went from mild to very painful in a matter of about 45min.  At 2am my water broke on my own, first time that has happened.  By that point I was in a lot of pain and begging for my epidural, I hadn't expected the pain to be that bad so fast, I think it was from my previous c-section.  At 2:45 they came and put in my epidural and gave me a big dose of the medicine to start out with.  But I'm very sensitive to medication and I quickly went completely numb, I couldn't feel my throat even and was beginning to have trouble breathing.  They got it all fixed around 4am and checked me and I was 4cm.  It went very fast after I was able to relax with my epidural being fixed and at 5:43am Hayden Noah Jackson was born.  He was born with one contraction into Mommy's hands.  Best birth experience between the boys, it was amazing.  First words I ever said to/about him were "wow his head is so tiny!" probably not the first thing most women say when they just pushed that head out haha.  He was beautiful!   

We weighed 7lbs 6.1oz and was 20in long.  We said we wished he had been 21 in because with his birth weight, time and length it would have been 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1...oh well haha.  He nursed right away for an hour, it was amazing.

My big 3 yr old

I really can't believe our little monster is 3yrs old today.  He has grown and changed so much.  He is now 36.5in and 29lbs 4oz.  He is talking loads and so smart.  He has totally earned his nickname of monster but we adore him anyways.  His brothers are absolutely in love with him and him with them.  He looks up to them so much.  His first baseball game will be this Saturday!!!!!!  

Happy Birthday Hayden Noah I hope you have an amazing day and I love you all the way to the moon and back Monster <3

Why do people think it's ok to subject others to their disgusting habits?

I hate cigarettes!  Can't stand the smell, just flat out don't like them.  If I'm honest I hate seeing that any parents smoke, inside or outside, it's still in your skin and clothes and I don't think kids should have to be around that.  But it's their choice so I don't say anything.  When I WILL say something though is when someone thinks it's ok to subject my child to their disgusting habits!


Tonight at Casen's baseball practice one of the new kids on the team her mom is pregnant, she had a pregnant friend with her and her husband.  Then there was another mom there sitting with them.  The dad was helping coach tonight.  I looked over and all 3 women are smoking...2 pregnant!  No I don't agree, but again if she wants to do that to her child, I guess it's her choice, I don't agree with it but she's an adult and isn't breaking the law.  Oh wait except that they were on school property!!!!  Then the dad walks over and lights one up too and walks back to keep coaching!!!  Knelt down and talked to 2 of the kids with the cig just a few feet from their face!  Better be glad one of those kids wasn't mine or I would have been over there saying something.  I was pissed off enough that they think it's ok to be walking around the kids and on school property smoking.  They weren't too close to Casen so I doubt he could even smell it but still...what gives them the right?  One of the ladies sitting with me teaches at that school and she wrote her principal just to confirm the law and then wrote the security guard requesting them put up signs again showing it is illegal. Hopefully that happens and she said next time she will say something and show them the sign.  The coach was supposed to talk to them after practice, not sure if he got a chance to.  But man....pissed me off big time!  If it happens again, even away from my kid I will say something.

Day 14

It was not a very good evening here tonight, so lunch was just thrown together, nothing great, nothing cooked, just easy.  After Hayden's acting up all evening and a 2hr bedtime with us both in tears and him falling asleep on my chest with me singing I just didn't have the energy for anything else

Blast Ball Meeting and Day 13 Lunch

We have been dealing with some heavy rains the past couple of days and today there were tornadoes touching down all around us.  I was watching the news and the helicopters were catching some awesome videos of it, you could actually see the tornado forming and going across the ground.  I haven't seen the evening news yet to see what kind of damage was done but I hope everyone is ok.  


This evening I had the parent meeting for Hayden's Blast Ball.  He came with and played with some kids.  He's by far the smallest that we saw, and he is the youngest.  We found out he is on team Black.  He is so excited to get started, his season opens on Sept 18th.
