So it turns out the pain wasn't from not taking my medication apparently I have a tape allergy... I thought it was weird that the tape they took off of me right out of surgery brought blood to the surface of my skin. They left the tape on my incision area for 2 days and it went to town eating away at my skin. I had about 2 inches of blisters all the way around my incision and now it has turned into a rash that has spread all over my body in places where let's just say it feels good to go to the bathroom and wipe...too much information I know....

Cyril Troy Viertel

So he is finally here! We arrived a little late to the hospital (about 30 min) They were waiting for me when I walked in. The nurse was a little frazzled because my doctor was coming in specifically to do the surgery so they were trying to get me ready in time. So because she was so frazzled nothing was going right. She tried 3 different places trying to get an IV started and ended up having the Dr do it. Then she turned my IV up too high making me sick and I started puking everywhere. In the end it turned out good and he is beautiful. He looks exactly like Troy. He doesn't cry and all he does is sleep and eat. Last night he slept for 5 hours before I woke him up to eat. Kalaya acts like he isn't there and Irelynn loves pretending to be a mom. As long as I stay on top of my medicine I am great. Last night I tried being tough and didn't take my drugs in the middle of the night. That was a mistake. I thought I had ripped open in the morning and was in the worst pain. Any way here are some pictures of my little handsome man

The sun will come out...

TOMORROW! I am so excited and kinda pissed at the same time. The Dr called Troy yesterday and asked if it would be okay if we did the c-section tomorrow at 1pm instead of 7am...I wasn't home so he told him yes. Now I have to fast even longer which sucks but at least it's not at night and he is still coming out tomorrow. I can't wait. I have been sleeping (or rather not sleeping) so bad my back hurts like no other I might as well be waking up all night with a baby if I'm not sleeping anyway

Hmmm...

Is it just me or does the embilical cord on my baby count down to the right look kind of wrong in certain angles?!?!?!? So I had to post this picture. It's classic Kalaya having to do everything "Arnie" does. For Irelynn's birthday we had her girlfriends over and took pictures of them and then painted and decorated frames for the picture to go in. This is the set Troy put together for the pictures

Happy Birthday Irelynn

Who knew the Viertel genes were so strong. She is already in training to go work with her 2 aunts

Potty Training

So Kalaya went pee on the toilet tonight before her bath. When we got her out we left the diaper off and then she told us she had to go potty and went poo!!! I am so excited. It would be awesome to get her potty trained before this baby comes. The problem is I'm giving her chocolate everytime she goes potty so she'll be potty trained but 20lbs heavier...oh well like mother like daughter I guess. I measured 39 at my 34 week appointment so I am still on track to have a 4 month old.

Yay!

I am so excited I am all scheduled for Dec 18th at 7am. Kalaya's c-section was not until 8 at night so I had to wait all day not to mention it was day light savings so it was the longest day of year. So with it being in the morning it takes off a day on my count down. Yay for me!!!
