SHE'S HERE!!!!

Mallorie Victoria Lockwood has arrived.... She made her Grand Entrance on October 17th 2011 weighing 6lbs 9oz! We are more than excited to have our now 3 week old daughter... Madison is doing great being a big sister and I think I have to tell her to leave her sister alone at least 50 times a day. I am sleep deprived & tired but all is well. I haven't been on here in a while and that's all because I have a newborn and things have been a little crazy around here especially being sleep deprived, breastfeeding, and having a toddler running around here but I am blessed and loving these precious moments and when I get some more time I will give my interesting birth story but until then here is a picture of my princess fresh out of the womb!

Progress!!!!

Today is Friday Oct 14, 2011 but on Wednesday Oct 12, 2011 my doctor stated that I was 2 centimeters and said I wouldn't make it until the end of the week. He also gave me a membrane sweep (which was very uncomfortable) to help me dilate. I'm so excited.... My little Angel will be here soon and I can't wait to see her:-) Papa Bear & Maddie Bear are so excited and so is the rest of my family. I'm 38 weeks and 2 days and I think she'll be here by week 39. GOD IS SO AMAZING!

Here are a few Family/Pregnancy Portraits....

~Have a Great Weekend~

38 weeks Pregnant and a Bad Mom!

Being pregnant  38 weeks pregnant and having a toddler around is more difficult than I thought it would be. I am SO tired and I have no energy to play with her like I should and I feel so bad. I have to force myself and when I actually do play with her its only for about 5-10 mins and I'm done. The weird thing is that my nesting has kicked in and I have energy for that and that's about it. I love being a S.A.H.M but right now at this very moment I feel like the worse mommy in the world. She wants my time but I'm 2 weeks away from having her sister and I am TIRED! Tired of being pregnant, Tired of not being able to lay on my belly at night while I sleep, Tired of eating ALL the time, Tired of going to the bathroom 6 times a night (at least that's what it seems like), Tired of not being able to have crazy sex with my husband, Tired, tired, tired, tired..... I'm not complaining but I'm just tired! However, I am READY to meet baby Mercy.... I just want to hold her and kiss her:-) 

I wish Madison could understand what mommy is going through but I know she doesn't;-( It's just really hard for me right now... She has really been a trooper b/c she has been entertaining herself for the most part but I just miss our time together. I normally just sit in the bed all day and watch reruns of Law & Order SVU or Criminal Minds, read blogs, or play spider solitaire. 

I'm just ready to get back to my old self even though I think I may miss being pregnant and I'm eager to meet the little one!
