This was taken at 8:15 am, I was having contractions 5 minutes apart!!
I started feeling my first contractions at 2:30 am Friday morning and they started to become 8 minutes apart at 3:30 am. After showering, I woke my mom up at 7:00 and we went walking to see if the contractions would become closer together. After walking an hour they were 5 minutes apart and off Dixon and I went to the hospital. When we got there the nurse checked me and i was 4 1/3 cm dilated with a bulging bag, and that's when she told us "your having this baby today!" Those words were music to our ears. By the time they got me into the labor and delivery room and hooked up to my IV, the nurse checked me and I was at a 6. She hurried off to get the anesthesiologist! At this point I was pretty excited, the pain wasn't too bad, and I knew he was on his way. I loved the anesthesiologist, and after the epidural, I was in lala land, I was very comfortable... so comfortable, I couldn't feel my right leg at all... I didn't feel that leg again until 10:00 that night! After the epidural our moms came into the room and things moved fast from there. Before I knew it I was at a 10 and the nurse was breaking my water. I started pushing at about 3:00 pm and he was here at 3:48. I am still amazed at how fun it is to be a mom, and how fun it is to watch Dixon be a dad! We feel so blessed to have had such a great experience at the hospital, and are so happy to finally have our baby boy in our arms!
Thanks to all our family and friends for all your love and support, we are so excited to get to share with you this fun time in our lives, and will try to keep you updated with all our fun pictures and experiences!
With love,
He doesn't particularly enjoy his baths... sometimes he looks like this, but isn't he so cute with that bathtowel??
After he calms down a little, we get our diaper on... and then we both are a little bit happier
Then we put our undershirt on (In this case it looks like a wifebeater... mom hasn't washed all the onesies yet, so wifebeater undershirt it is!)
And last but not least, we lost our umbilical cord!!! Actually he lost it last monday, but this is the first pic I have taken of his cute button!!
And the best part of bathtime.... the yummy pink baby lotion lathered all over his little body... yum!!
Sawyer loves to put his hands by his face.. making it very difficult to get a good picture of him, but I was sneaky and got a pic where he made a cute face! 
This is Sawyer's second outfit of the day... he likes to pee through his clothes... we ended up going through 4 outfits. I thought this one was cute because it's green and christmasy!
Dixon got new Dr. Dre headphones that he was pretty excited about (I was pretty proud of myself for thinking up this idea, Dixon is very hard to shop for!) and the Jack's Mannequin album, that was autographed by Andrew himself!
Dixon and Sawyer got a carseat cover with the UNLV logo all over it. And I mean it when I say that this was Dixon's gift too.. I've never seen a man get so excited over a carseat cover!
We like to take lots of naps. Lyla is always on guard making sure I am taken care of. Sometimes we fall asleep with our arms in funny positions that make mommy laugh. I love to take naps with my blue blanket from Pottery Barn!
I like to take naps when I am in the sling. Its the best of both worlds, mommy likes to go on walks, and I love to nap!
I love to take lots of naps with my daddy. Daddy watches sports, and I sleep!
And sometimes my mom dresses me in little man clothes because she thinks i look cute... but it really interferes with my nap time, so I don't like to smile when she's taking pictures of me all dressed up!
