She's so Lovely!!!!

Introducing: LUCY MAE GHARRING

Born Monday Feb. 18 5:13 am. 8lbs. 3oz. 20 inches long.
So here's my awesome story!
Most of you know that I can't go into labor on my own, the boys wanted to stay in there forever... So Saturday I was contracting ALL day, but they weren't really consistent in time every 10 min. for a while then every 7 minutes then every 14 min. We went to the hospital anyways and they checked me, I was a 3! but no change while I was there, so they sent me home. I continued contracting and couldn't sleep Friday, or Saturday nights. Sunday, woke up still contracting but they were getting stronger, but I kept saying that I am not going back until she's ready to pop out, so all day went like that where I would have to stop and take breaths, but I was determined... Sunday night at 1:30 am, I woke Brad up and said "OK we have to go now"... the car ride was rough and I was kind of getting freaked out because I had always been in the hospital with pain like this. We get to the hospital at 2 or 2:15am and they checked me I was a 6 (I was so proud of myself), they were so fast got me hooked up to the IV and got my epidural and then I was feeling good, thinking I could rest a little bit, no, Lucy wanted out. They came back and I was an 8, then they broke my water and a 1/2 hour later I was ready to push. I had 3 contractions and pushed 6 times and she came! I was feeling so good! I literally was ready to walk out of there. It was so nice!!! A nice way to end the pregnancy and possibly be done having kids, except it was so good it makes me think maybe 1 more...(don't tell Brad ) :)

It's Reid's Birthday TWO!!!

Well this is the season to have babies in our house and my little buddy Reid is 2 today! I can't believe it and feel so blessed to have such sweet, good little boys... I can't believe I got so lucky. So I will brag about Reid for a second, as it is his day!
He is such a brute and all boy, will copy Jack with everything, right down to where he walks, but will always take a moment to come and give me a hug and kiss.
I love that he ends almost every sentence with "Momma".
He literally has been moving every waking moment since he was born, the kid cannot sit still, let's just say Sacrament meeting not so fun for me, and we're often late (on purpose= less time that I have to control him)
He really is so good, just so busy and gets into everything he can.
Sharpies and Reid don't make good combinations... We've had some "accidents" while dad's been in charge with him writing with sharpies on the computer, keyboard, cupboards, travertine and pantry door! Ahh... All I have to say is that since he's been born I think I've bought a couple of boxes of the magic erasers and they have worked!
He loves to converse and tells us all what to do: "Sit down, Jack" "Momma, You the boss, You the boss" and my favorite "Cookies is num nums" (yummy) along with many more phrases.
I love my little buddy and am so glad he is TWO today.
