Random thoughts
*Hubby left this morning for three days to go on Trek up to Martin's cove, hope he has fun but hope thursday comes very quickly
*My house is a complete and utter disaster
*I really don't care at this poing that its a disaster...too tired to care
*Really really wish Korwin would decide on some type of schedule
*Jayden loves to help me with brother so that is a plus, although sometimes trys to help a little too much.
*July is a very very busy month on activities to do and the stuff Brandon has to do...ugh
*Really wish we had internet at home, maybe when we pay off the hospital bills we can
* Hospitals and doctors are way too over paid in my opinion
Even though i seem like i'm complaining i am only a little bit. I'm just a bit sleep deprived but it sorta comes with the territory and i honestly wouldnt trade having my two boys for anything. I just hate it when the husband is gone, i really really hate sleeping alone even though i get all the pillows and covers i want. Still its just lonely.

Lagoon 2011
Every year Simplot pays for all its employees to go to Lagoon and have a catered lunch provided, so of course we jumped on the opportunity and went. This year Jayden was able to do some of the rides. Although waiting in line was not fun at all with him and would have tiny meltdowns. Just didn't understand the meaning of waiting his turn and the fact his patience is very very limited, it was interesting to say the least. Once he got on thought he had a blast. So without further ado yet another picture overload.

Korwin Dade Batty
So I really don't have any excuse as to why it has taken me this long to up date and introduce our newest member expect the fact that i'm a tad bit busier these days. Understatement of the century if you ask me.
Anyways the gist of it all is Korwin was born on May 18, 2011 and 5:04 pm, weighing in at 8lbs 3 oz and 20 1/2 inches long. He was exactly 2 weeks overdue, yes 2 long miserable extra weeks. Since I was over and I was already dialating and such we decided to try being induced again. I was pretty scared thinking it was going to be another 3 day labor but i was very pleasantly surprised. Checked in the hospital at 7 am, was hooked up to all the fun machines and IV with pitocin running by 7:45. Doctor came in a few minutes later and broke my water and told me i was already a 4! Wahoo, i wasn't that far along till day 3 with Jayden, so i was very hopeful about having a baby that night. Well a few hours later Korwin decided he didn't like me so much and they had to yet again sorta refill me with water since it was putting to much stress on him without that extra cushion. Well he wasn't dropping like he was suppose to but i was dilating very well. They thought that the cord was wrapped around him and threw the word 'emergency c-section' out there if his heart-rate didn't steady which terrified me since all morning hubby was by my side expect for that 15 minutes of course, so needless to say i had a teeny freak out. Well they decided to take me off the Pit and see if he would calm down enough, well instead my body decided to kick in overdrive and do it all alone. Apparently all i needed was a little kick to get me going on my own. His heart rate steadied out so they decided to hold out and see if I could do it by myself without surgical intervention. Well around 4 o'clock nice nurse lady came and checked and told me i was ready to Push!!! HOLY Crap I thought, can it really happen that fast. Anyways, she went to go grab the doctor and came back a few minutes later saying he was already delivering a lady a few rooms down and told me not to push and relax. UM HELLO!! pretty sure i wanted to punch her in the face. Fast forward 30 minutes later doctor told me it was my turn and Korwin was born 30 minutes later. So i guess the benefit of them telling me to not push made for a easier labor in the end since he himself was thinking...uh mom...i'm ready to come out, like, 20 minutes ago! The cord was indeed wrapped around his neck but nothing to be alarmed about, he came out wrong side up i guess which made him inhale some fluid, which they said oh don't worry about it we'll suction him out and he'll be fine. Riiiiight. I was able to hold him for a few minutes before they took him to clean and weigh him and all that jazz. I didn't see or hear about him again till close to 7 that next morning. Talk about being a nervous wreck. Brandon would go down the the nursery and saw him and noticed they were doing a chest x-ray and was hooked up to oxygen and had an IV but couldn't find out what was going on.
Long story short, they had to put the IV in to give him food, since they didn't dare let him eat for fear of him inhaling it which would just add to the fluid already in his lungs. The x-ray was to check to make sure his lungs were developed and the oxygen was to help him get the fluids out of his lungs. Well all this went down Wednesday and by Friday he was off the iv, oxygen and was able to eat. Well then the silly poor scored poorly on his Jaundice level and had to be under them blue lights for 24 hours. So yet another day in the hospital. Finally Saturday morning he cleared his jaundice level and food intake to diaper outtake :) and we were out of that hospital by 11 that morning.
Apparently I should just plan on being in the hospital for at least 4 days...good grief. All in all though it was much better experience than what it was with Jayden and are very excited for Korwin to finally be here. So next comes a bit of a picture overload but it is what it is. They aren't loading in order but, i really just don't want to spend forever to fix it...so this is what you get for now.

Playing Catch up.....Sorta
I figured it was about time i stopped being lazy and just did a quick update. Seeing as in a few weeks my time will become even more limited when our little boy decides to make his debut! I'm down to just over 2 weeks till my 'due' date. I'm trying to be patient but i'm just getting to the point of i want to be done. We have a lot of stuff to do to get ready, but then its just the little stuff. Need to get all the clothes and bottles washed. Bassinet out and put back together, buy diapers and such and basically get the house cleaned so i wont have to do a lot when he comes. I"m just freaking out a little bit since i have no idea what a 'real' contraction feels like since with Jayden i was induced and i'm sorry but pitocin contractions just don't compare since i never was given a 'break' between 'contractions'. Doesn't help that our doctor is in Roosevelt since I refused to go to my last doctor since he scared/forced us into a inducement and then 52 hours of unnecessary labor and blah blah i won't get into detail. Just he won't get my recommendation for a doctor. So we decided to go to Dr. Nolte and he has been a very pleasant and welcoming change from our last one. I know, I know what you moms are thinking and wanting to say...you'll definitely know when your in labor, but i just don't want to get what i think are labor pains and then go over and then be sent home for fakies. That trip from Vernal to Roosevelt will go old and costly very quickly. On the plus side i'm already further along on the "pre-labor" stuff then i ever was with Jayden after 2 days in the hospital so that keeps me going knowing that my body does in fact know what its doing i just have to play the lovely waiting game.
Well i'm just going to post a bunch of radom pictures from winter sledding trips, Jayden in an adorable little church outfit and some fun at the farm. So enjoy and have a great day!

Serious Blog over load
I really am such a slacker but its hard to update when you don't have the internet at home and only get to borrow the parent's computer. So the next few blogs are going to be a little overkill but i have a little bit of catching up to do so i guess move on or enjoy our crazy lives :)
Some bigger things i can share, don't really have pictures but i will as soon as i can. Brandon sold his GMC pickup and his S10 finally and was recently able to buy him something bigger. A 1991 Chevy Suburban, i wasn't kidding he went bigger :). He seems to love it and it has 4 wheel drive tons of room so until we find us our family tahoe it will do just dandy.
For the first time we got our Christmas lights up on our house, i will definitely get pictures and try to post them. Jayden LOVES lights this year and the fact that we finally got us a Christmas tree, fake but i love that its a prelit and all that fun jazz. Jayden loves it! So do i, since its our first since we've been married.
Speaking of married, me and Brandon reached our 4 year mark on December 1 and were able to go out to dinner just the two of us and of course most of the conversation led back to Jayden but he is our whole world....for now.
Coming in May we are expecting our 2nd little one. We don't' know what it is yet, but we are sure excited and don't worry as soo as we know everyone else will know. Jayden will be 2 1/2 and i hope will be a big helper and loves being a big brother.
Go through the rest of the blogs at your own risk...there are a few of them :)
