Bentley Blayke

after 23 hours of induced labor and then an emergency c section: introducing bentley blayke schiller. born November 19th 2010 @ 6:44am. 8 pounds 9 ounces 22 inches long.

I was induced on the 18th @ 7:30am and didnt respond to induction meds until about 8 pm. I had contractions that were 1-2 min apart from 8 pm till 12 am when I finally dialated to a 4 and got my epidural. I went from a 4 to a 10 by 2 am and started pushing! I pushed for about 3 hours when the dr concluded my pelvis was just too narrow to deliever a baby. (AAAAAAAAAHHH) all that for nothing?! we then went into the O.R. around 6 am and had a c section. Bentley still did not want to come out, when the dr had me cut open she did a flip and ended up being pulled out feet 1st. What a stubborn little girl! She saw her 1st ray of light at 6:44am. It was a long 23 hours but worth every second of pain. She is amazing, it was love at first sight!

She got her daddys dimples.. what a lucky girl

6 days old and already doing so great. We feel so blessed to have her here on earth and love her so much! She couldnt be any more perfect..

Happy Thanksgiving!

d day

WELLLLL its D Day and we have no baby. me and diesel are trying to be patient but its kinda hard..I went to the dr on monday for my 40 week apt and he thinks we will have to wait to till the 18th to be induced. He doesnt think my body is just quite ready for labor. so bentley gets to stay nice and warm for just a little while longer!

Im ready to not be so huge and be back to being my normal self but just with a baby!!
Dees is so excited to be a big brother! he is getting depressed waiting for her..

Cassidy made my dream come true and re did our bathroom!! we have a brand new shower/tub with tile and a new paint job! it looks great its so nice to have a brand new shower that no stranger has ever showered in!

Hopefully the next post will be of our little princess!! HOPEFULLY!!

halloween

Our spooky pumpkins.. bad picture I know. im in desperate need of a new camera.. mine is on the right and cassidys is on the left. We had a mellow halloween.. didnt go to any partys or anything, just watched a little football and ate good food. and we only had 1 trick or treater.. sad. i guess parents dont want their kids walking around "the hood" at night. I dont blame them!

Heres diesel on halloween morning. He is so funny how he thinks he owns the couch..

We are officially in the final countdown till bentley is here. No more than 8 days HOPEFULLY. I went to my 39 week apt yesterday and the dr said she is head down and ready to go we are just waiting on her to make her move! we cant wait!!!

guns and babies?

Look where Cassidy stored a few of his hunting guns.. hmm good thing little bentley hasnt arrived yet! exactly 30 days till my due date!! i had my 36 week apt on thursday and everything is lookin good.. dr said we are right on schedule! :)

Diesel's getting jealous..

So we walk into bentleys room to find this....

SOMEONE was a little upset when he found out that the cute new pink and blue shag rug was not for him.. it was so hard to tell that cute little face that was not his rug..


we only have about 10 weeks left!! SOO excited!

black bear && christmas in august

last weekend we went on an adventure over black bear pass in telluride, co. this has gotta be the prettiest, scariest, steepest trail on earth. i thought we were going to roll over that cliff tooo many times..

heres the view from the top looking over the cliff.. pictures cant even do this place justice..
we saw two amazing waterfalls, they were so so pretty.. i needed my sis in law chelsey and her photo skills.. my little digi cant capture the beauty.



Bronco going down the mountain. this is only a one way trail.. noooo room for error!

Cass and his mom

So last night i was home alone and decided to get crafty. I got out my sewing machine and thought hey why not make bentley her 1st christmas stocking! I had all this scrap material from the last project i did and had so much fun putting this together! now im really in the mood for christmas, i want to put out all of our other decorations. (but i wont)

This little cutie turns two here sometime soon.. we dont know his exact bday cuz the pound estimated he was about 1 when we got him last september. we cannot believe we have had dees for a year now!! time is flying!!! happy bday diesel!

Dreaming of dinner...

Its now 4:12pm, only 48 more minutes until i can go home and raid my fridge. baby bentley is as long as this strange veggie, some sort of cucumber i presume..

looking @ pictures of my cravings seems to help satisfy just a little..

i would LOVE a slice of pepperoni right now, or 2 or 3 slices..

grapes seem to be the most consumed food since being pregnant, give me a night on the couch watching tlc and i will go through 2 pounds of purple grapes EASY.

and of course i could always use a mcdonalds double cheeseburger, hold the pickles.

Man am i hungry! only 14 more weeks of this insanity and i will get to meet baby girl!! i think we will be making a paper chain countdown here pretty soon.. this morning cassidy was singing "99 days till bentley gets here, only 99 more days" just like 99 bottles of beer on the wall..

well goodnight america!
