Getting Kevin here

Wow, it has been a long week. A long but WONDERFUL week. The long awaited arrival of our little bundle of joy finally came. We went in on Sunday night the 14th to get induced. Kevin didn't seem to want to come so we had to make him. It was and intresting night, it went fast even though we didn't sleep too comfortably. We were definetly going off adrenaline.
The whole process was actually quite quick. The doctor broke my water at 9:30 and I about died of pain until they gave me my wonderful epidural at 10:30. The Doctor said he wanted a baby by lunchtime and I think Kevin must have heard him because I was completly ready to push at 12:30. I went from 5 Centemeters to 10 in about 45 minutes. I couldn't believe it was time to push and that they had already called the doctor. About 45 minutes later we had a baby. Kevin Russell Endsley was born on Monday October 15th, 2007 at 1:16 p.m. 8 lbs. 6 oz. 21 1/2 inches long. He is all that we wanted and MORE. Those in attendance included Adam Endsley, Jennilyn Stuart, Grandma Stuart (with Grandpa Stuart right outside the door getting the play by play from Grandma) Nurse Carolynn, Dr. Gray and of course Ashley.
WOW when he came out I was so completly overjoyed. That human being just slipped right out and he was a WHOLE person. Adam was able to cut the cord and then they layed him right on my chest. He was crying quite a bit but as soon as I talked to him he started to calm down. He layed on my chest for a while and I could not believe the Joy I felt. He is our little miracle.

Now 5 days later I am still amazed at the amount of love I feel for him. Everytime I see him I love him even more. He is an amazing baby, and he sleeps great, eats great, and is pretty much happy all the time. Adam is also so very excited about being a father and you can tell that he loves him so very much. Yesterday was his first day back to work and I think it might have broken his heart a little to have to leave Kevin.

I hope you guys enjoy the pictures, I will try to get more, but babies are hard to photograph. Thank you all for you love and support. It has been a long 9 months (probably because it was 9 1/2 months) but it was so worth it and we look forward to having at least 5 more. (a tiny inside joke just for Adam).

Thanks again.

Oh how sweet!!!

Just Relaxin'. Look at those sucker cheeks.

I love this baby soooo much!

Look how little compared to Daddy. He's got a lot of growing to do to be tall like Adam.

OVERDUE

SO here I am... 11 days overdue. Can you believe I am still semi smiling. This baby doesn't seem to want to get out of me. I keep trying to tell him that we will love him and still feed him and let him sleep as long as he wants when he gets here, but apparently I have made it too darn comfortable in there for him. I really wanted to go into labor on my own, but if I haven't then they will start me on Sunday night the 14th. Then he will most likely come on Monday. So at least we will have a baby by Monday the 15 of October... no worries that I was due on October 1st. Though I am at that point where I would do anything to get this kid out of me, Adam and I are mostly anxious to meet the little guy. We are however reminiscing in our last few days as just the two of us. Tomorrow we will make sure the house is in order and that EVERYTHING is in place. Then maybe we'll go to an afternoon movie (since we won't be doing that any time soon after the baby is born). The day is really quite free and open so we will have to have some fun. So as soon as Kevin Russell Endsley is here we will let everyone know via email/Text msg./ or telephone. We love you all and we will keep you posted.

My baby shower in St. George on the 4th of October. It was so much fun. At one point we had 5 preggers women there. I was glad I made it to the shower and I wasn't in labor or something. I definetly look like I should pop that baby out any time soon... but here it is 8 days later and yes... I am still pregnant.

Cedar Canyon

So here's Adam when we went up to Cedar Canyon on the 29th of Sept. The colors of the leaves changing were so beautiful and even though it was Really cold, we all enjoyed ourselves very much.
