Grandma & Grandma Great come for a visit

On Friday, Grandma Marie & Grandma Great Gines came to see us!  I didn't tell the kids they were coming... partly to surprise them... mostly for self preservation.  (Have you ever lived with small children who were looking forward to something?  They ask about it every 2 minutes!!)  It was fun to pile them in the car on Friday afternoon & head for the airport.  They loved their surprise!

I loved this picture of my mom & Nathan... the kids REALLY love her and REALLY love that her iPad comes with her!  Nathan was helping Grandma play Words with Friends.

We also did some sewing!  I had been wanting to make Nathan some PJ shorts for summer (I hate buying PJ's!) so my mom brought her pattern & helped me whip them up.  All set!


I loved having them here, & so did the kids.  I especially loved having my Grandma here.  She is one special lady & I cherish every second I get to spend with her.  Family is the BEST & it was so fun sharing our Easter Weekend with Grandma & Grandma Great!

Nathan McKay Oldroyd Born August 4th at 6:37 a.m., weighs 5 lbs. 8.5 oz, & is 20 in. long Alexa Dawn Oldroyd Born August 4th at 6:38 a.m., weighs 4 lbs. 5.5 oz, & is 1 6.75 in. long We are so excited that they are finally here! The C-Section went very well & Alisha is recovering well, with the help of pain meds! Nathan needs quite a bit of help with breathing but is improving. We’re told that he may get his ventilator tube out today & they would help him breathe using a C-pap. He breathes ok on his own so he mostly now just needs some pressure to remind him to breathe. He is still in the highest level of the NICU but is doing well. He’ll be in there for at least a few days after we get to go home. Alexa is tiny but doing extremely well. Alisha was able to hold her while still in the OR before she needed some oxygen help. She only had to stay on the oxygen until 11 a.m. and is still in the lower level NICU. She should get to move to the normal nursery tomorrow m...

37 Weeks 2 Days

It's almost the end! I saw Dr. Adam last Thursday and I'm starting to spill protein and swell a little. But my BP is good! So we'll see what happens when I see her this Thursday. We may have to deliver early! I have mixed feelings about that because I really wanted to make it to 39 weeks, and my parents can't come until the 14th. But Sam is worried about my kidneys. So we'll see. Baby girl was 6.5 lbs last week. Even if she comes this week, she'll probably be about 7 lbs! Me on the other hand... I've gained 40 lbs! I have 5 lbs to go to be where I was with my other deliveries. Let's see if I get there! :)
