What I know thus far...

I am working on new pictures, but we are a little busy...

What I know...

1. The help both sets of parents were incredible and I couldn't imagine what life would have been like without them.
2. Adley sleeps a minimum of 5 hours each night but is continuing to add on to it so that the last 2 nights she has slept 7+hours.
3. Adley hates being cold and thus wails during baths right now.
4. Adley will eat anyway we give her food. The ways she has eaten thus far are nursing, syringe, bottle, back to nursing. Now she nurses during the day and bottle before she goes to bed and in the middle of the night. However I don't know if 5 am counts as the middle of the night anymore.
5. I don't feel like a mom yet but I do know I love her a lot and know I can care for her. I know she is mine but it still feels surreal.
6. My delivery recovery tempts me to consider c-sections for future children. Let's just say it was rough and has including 4 doctor's appointments in 2 weeks to include more stitches and 2 rounds of antibiotics to combat fevers.
7. I never thought saying goodbye to my mom would be as hard as it was.
8. I never thought saying goodbye to Cory's parents would be as hard as it was either.
9. While I enjoy having my house back, I certainly wish parents lived near us to come visit, help, etc.
10. I must nap at least once while she naps in a day to make sure I stay healthy.

More Pictures...

Sorry about the short post before. I wasn't feeling incredibly well when trying to post the first time and thus only why one made it. She is doing awesome right now and sleeping 6-8 hours at night every night. We are counting our blessings!

Austin Changes

So of course right when I post about Austin, everything changes. Unfortunately, Cory found out today that we can not go to Austin in February anymore because the other LT here cannot get his TDY dates changed. So now we are going in March, hopefully.

Just thought you should all know. Please pray for my own peace in this situation especially with the Air Force.

Not yet...and Austin!

I have debated on blogging until the baby is born because I konw so many people are just waiting. I know because I am one of them, but I also keep getting facebook messages, text messages, phone calls, emails, etc. And, if I ever call someone, the first sound out of their mouth is either about the baby OR very expectant of news they want me to spill. Sorry, but no news yet. I have an appointment today and my doctor will schedule an induction date as she does not want me to go over 41 weeks.

On an awesome note, Cory and I will be going to Texas in February with new baby and Cory will have the chance to interview with the Austin Police Department. We have been waiting to hear about dates for a base inspection and FE Warren in Cheyenne, WY just got hit with less than 48 hour notice. Herego, Cory's leadership is granting us leave to go as we will have no warning of the inspection dates. I never thought God would answer the prayer that way, but I am okay with. We get to go and he gets to interview. That is what we wanted. Cory would prefer the inspection happen while he is here though, so now pray that the no warning inspection happens when Cory is available I guess!

Maybe the next post will have a baby picture. I can hope!
