Where has the time gone??

Wow, so the last time that I posted anything to my blog was 4 MONTHS AGO! I cannot believe it, and when I posted 4 MONTHS AGO I was playing catch up from the last time that I slacked off. Clearly I am a horrible person and cannot get my act together, but I can promise that I am doing my very best. I am so sad that I am so far behind but my new plan (since the old one of catching up on everything in one day is not working) is to start anew and whenever I get a few moments one day (haha) I will catch up on everything in between. I just am do not want to miss capturing anymore memories and I know that the new ones will get lost in the shuffle while I am waiting to get caught up, so here it goes.....

WE HAD A BABY!! LOL, should not be news to anyone he is now 4 weeks old and I cannot even tell you where the time has gone. It seems so crazy that this time last year I was in tears after numerous failed pregnancy test (2 long years!!) and now I have my sweet little boy. We welcomed David Edward Wink III into the world on July 21st at 10:14am weighing 8 lbs and 5.7 ounces and measuring 19 3/4 inches.

D-day was awesome and so much different than Isabelle. Davie was a planned C-Section (as was Isabelle) but I guess because it was my second I was not as stressed. The operating room was even different, so incredibly laid back they were even playing the iPod as Dr. Roberts cut me open. The whole time we were laughing, joking and cutting up it was surprisingly a wonderful experience. I was so happy to finally hear Davie's first cry, it was definitely music to my ears. Being pregnant (at least for me) is so stressful I am always monitoring the number of kicks, making sure he is still moving, and hoping that everything is ok so the moment that they pulled him out and I saw his sweet little face I knew that everything was going to be alright. Well with the exception of him being surprisingly very quiet. He did his first initial cry as most all babies do but then he was just quite and alert checking out all that was going on around him while they sewed me back up. Isabelle screamed for at least an hour after she was born so I was kind of expecting the same thing but Davie was just quite, so of course being a worry wart I had to keep asking Dave "are you sure he is ok"? Surprisingly enough the silence did not last long at all!
