Disneyland Trip

We decided at the last minute to go to Disneyland with the boys since Bill was off another week and we wouldn't be able to take anymore time off for awhile. We headed out to California and 7 hours later, after lots of stops to feed and take care of Matthew, we were finally there. The first day we visited the beach. It was very windy but fun to see Benjamin roll around the sand and Justice achieve getting below sea level.

On the second day, we went to Disneyland and boy is it hard when you got a 10 year old who is too excited, a 21 month old who isn't sure what is going on and a newborn who is enjoying the heat but isn't sure about the breastfeeding room. By five o clock I was thankful Bill mentioned that I could go back to the motel. Bill being the superhero stayed late to see the fireworks, eventhough Nemo took too long and they missed it.

We decided to stay one more night since there was more to see and I wasn't feeling up to traveling. The boys enjoyed another day and I got to relax in the motel with Matthew. We had a really good time, just really exhausting. Ben is still excited to see the pictures and the Mickey balloons. They are just too much fun to be with, all of the boys. Benjamin is even singing yo ho yo ho a pirates life for me. It is just too cute.

Matthew William Sibole is here!

Well Matthew is here. It has taken me a little while to write and I apologize for that. He is just gorgeous though. To make a long story short on the whole deal...here is how it went for us. We went in Sunday night at midnight to be induced, but five girls had followed me in full labor. So I was asked to go home and sleep a bit until a room opened up. That didn't happen until noon on Monday the 30th. I was induced at around 1230 and was dilated to 10 by 5pm. It went very quickly, I am proud of my doctor. Well me too! Anyways, the nurse had to hold Matthew's head so he didn't slip out while we were waiting for the doctor. It took the doctor about 5 minutes to get to the hospital thank goodness because Matthew wanted out now. He came out a little too fast and it bruised his face pretty bad. It was all cleared up pretty much by the next day so it wasn't so bad. He is doing great and in excellent condition. The doctor thinks he is beautiful and very healthy. I am fine too, just a little sore from the cramps and trying out breast feeding. Everyone keeps telling me that it will get easier so I am just waiting for that day. Anyways, he is very quite and just loveable. love you all and thank you for your prayers and thoughts.

Not Much Longer!!

The good news is that I am almost done and Matthew will be here in a couple of weeks. I talked to the doctor yesterday and I am still not dilated. That is okay, I at least got to see him and get a date when we can induce out of him. I can induce the night of the 27th. So Matthew should be here on the 28th, I feel so selfish for wanting to have it done so quickly but things are really uncomfortable. We have decided on Matthew William Sibole. Justice and Benjamin are taking the whole news well I think. Justice is very excited to have more toys to play with and Benjamin is unsure what is going on just yet. He now thinks a belly is called a baby. I show him the babies in the stores and he just kind of looks at me funny. Oh well, hopefully he will be okay with sharing mommy and daddy with little brother. They are both big helpers, so I am very lucky. I will of course update this wonderful blog that my good friend Tammy shared with me when the time comes.
