1 week old

Can't believe that my precious baby girl has been in this world for one week already!!

Willa Kate's Birth Day

Willa Kate's birth was very different than Brady's! Willa Kate was sunny side up! So needless to say I had to push a little longer to get her out!! It still wasn't that long, but when your in the moment it feels like eternity! With Brady I had to push about 20 minutes and with her I pushed about 40 minutes!! Also the cord was around her neck twice, but we never had any indication of that because her heart rate was always perfect! With Brady I felt very light contractions before they gave me the epidural, so I basically felt nothing with him! With Willa Kate I had some pretty painful contractions before I got the epidural and a few really bad ones while I was getting the epidural! But of course it was all worth it!!

Here is our first picture together!

The proud big brother!

Willa Kate's birth cookies from the cookie mama! I had a basket full! I meant to take a picture of all of them in the cute basket but I forgot!!

Introducing...

Willa Kate Dimino!!

Willa Kate arrived at 2:29pm on Friday February 18! She was 7 lbs. and 20.5 inches long. She has a head full of dark brown hair!! We are both doing great!! I think she looks just like her daddy!! Brady is adjusting very well!! He loves his baby Kate!! He can't say Willa, so he just calls her Kate! He gets so excited when he is around her!

Here is a shot of some of her hair!!

Here is miss priss all ready for her bilirubin check!

Brady's 2nd Birthday!

This past Saturday was Brady's 2nd birthday!! So we had a small party at the house with friends and family. I couldn't handle anything too large with me being 9 months pregnant and all!! My mom and dad came in on Thursday night and they helped me so much!! They helped clean the house and decorate for his party!! I definitely couldn't have done it without them! Wilse's parents came into town on Friday night and joined us for the party on Saturday! It was so nice to have both sets of grandparents there for his big day!

Brady had the best time at his party!! He enjoyed playing with all of his friends and of course opening presents!! I think the big hit of the party were all of the balloons! I think just about every kid wanted one, good thing I had plenty! Also they liked pulling the strings of the pinata and picking up the candy and putting it in their bags!

Now it's time for picture overload!!

His adorable invitation!

Willa Kate's Nursery

Willa Kate's nursery is finally ready for her arrival this Friday, if not sooner!! This past Thursday I was 2 cm dialated and 50% effaced and having regular contractions!! Hopefully she will hold off until Friday! Get ready for tons of pics of her room, I am in LOVE with it!!

My friend Deena made this cute diaper cake that is on her dresser.

I made these next few things!!

And then I already had this birdcage thing and decided to hang some ribbon in it and put some sticks and a bird and flowers in it! I think it turned out really cute!!

My friend Haley sent me a link to a blog that had these cute picture frames. I loved them, so I had to make them!!

This canvas was a baby shower present from my friend Lynzie!

I made the hanging Willa Kate canvas that matches her bedding!

I wasn't going to get her a car seat cover, but I decided last minute to get a girly one and not use the same one I had with Brady!

I found this night light in a gift shop in Tupelo and had to have it since it matches her bird picture above her crib!

Her bow holder that I made.

And here is a picture of me last night after a very long day!! Brady's birthday was yesterday and we partied it up!! LOL I was very very tired last night!! I had contractions just about the whole party!! Party post will be coming in the next few days!!

So here it is, me in all my 37 week glory of being huge!! This is what a fat lady looks like pregnant!!
