Adriana Grace Corral

Friday December 7th I had my first weekly check up, I had been joking on how nice it would be to have Dr. Olsen check me and tell me to just go ahead and go right up stairs, little to my surprise I was in fact dilated to a 4 and effaced to a 75%! I was jumping up and down with joy I thought for sure I wouldn't be progressed at all because of how bad I wanted to be! Kayla came to the appointment with me (we were spending as much time together before she up and left me and my kids) after we left we decided to grab some lunch, the whole time we together we were trying to figure when little Miss would make her grand appearance we both agreed that the big day would be the 12th Kayla left to go down to the red rock something lol and Mike and I got ready to go get Christmas shopping done and over with the whole time we were out shopping I was contracting and having HORRIBLE back pain which meant I was so not in the shopping mood, which meant we didn't get a whole lot done. When we got home we talked to my parents for awhile and after about an hour and a half of still being in pain I told Mike I wanted to go to the hospital so my parents packed up Isaiah and off we went, after getting to the hospital they hooked me up to the monitors and watched my contractions for a hour after seeing that I was in labor they called the on call doctor (Dr. Olsen was out that weekend just my luck) to see what he wanted to do with me because I had just got my group b test done that day they didn't have the results and had to treat me as if I tested positive just to be safe, I had to have 2 doses of the medicine before pushing so they decided they weren't going to speed up labor at all (JOY) things were going well and after I was dilated to a 5 for the second time of checking me I wanted my epidural to hopefully help me be able to sleep it was about 4 am and I was so sleepy but couldn't sleep worth pooh! The doctor came in and put me epidural in and like 5 minutes after he left I started feeling super dizzy and like I was going to throw up Mike ran and got the nurse she came in and said that my blood pressure had dropped and had me sit up for a couple of minutes which seemed to help then it wasn't helping again I started throwing up and feeling like my arms were going numb to say the least it was horrible and I almost wish I wouldn't have got the dumb thing! Finally around 8 the doctor was able to come and break my water and that sure helped things speed up by 10:30 I was ready to push and Little Adriana was born at 11:10 am she looked just like her big brother and was doing amazing for being 4 weeks early she passed all her test with flying colors!

Last night Isaiah and I were talking about Christmas, because ever since last week when we woke up to the snow and Isaiah yelled "It "nows" Momma, YAY its Christmas!" He has talked about Christmas non-stop so I was asking him what he wanted Santa to bring to him and this was his answer word for word kid you not "I want a "camer" (aka camera) I looked at him like he was a little crazy I then asked ok what else would you like... "a microwave" WTH I asked why would you need a microwave we have one right here in the kitchen... "momma for my room, so I make popcorn!" again WTH how freaking old does he think he is?!? Why can't we just ask for normal three year old things that would make my life 50 times easier! I sure love him and so glad that he is such a charter we laugh at things he says all the time!

First of all Isaiah is 3 holy freaking cow he is growing up so fast and time has flown by!!! 

 I feel as is this was just yesterday 

*this was taken about 2 weeks before Isaiah came into our family!*

On his birthday he also started school and he was so excited which was so nice, a couple days before he started I took him in to meet his teacher and see his room and show him how close moms classroom was to his, The very first thing he said to me was Mom I HATE this school and kids and I go home.... umm crap is all I could think! Daddy gave him a blessing the night before and he woke up more then thrilled to go!! Thank you priesthood, and a worthy husband that is able to hold it!

Later that day we went to the splash pad with some friends and family had cake (which was adorable) and opened presents it was easy and I think he LOVED it win win! 

He got a bike from Mom and Dad and he is in love! He has really got the it down too and now I am wondering what we were thinking ;) 

Isaiah,

Thank you so much for choosing us to be your parents. You are the perfect fit for us and we LOVE you so much! You are so caring towards momma and even daddy when you want to be ;) You say the FUNNEST things and make us laugh all the time! Thank you Thank you for being you!

Labor Signs:

We had a scare this week Sunday night I started contracting they were coming about every 4 to 5 mins for about an hour I went and laid down and that helped alot although they were still happening, I decided if they picked up at all we would go into labor and delivery they never did so I went to sleep and woke up got ready for work and while I was getting ready I had a couple more I asked Mike to give me a blessing (bless that boy) all day at work I was fine I came home feeling like I got hit by a bus I sat down and after 5 mins I decided to get up and start cleaning when I went to get up I felt like something ripped in my stomach it was thee worst pain ever and after that I was in pain unless I was laying flat on my back, after being pain for over an hour I called my doctor he said to just rest, drink lots of water and take some Tylenol I did just that I decided to not go to work that next day and just rest. I wasn't in pain unless I was doing anything other then laying down, I called my doctor and asked if he could just see me, he agreed at the appointment he asked lots of questions asked where the pain was coming from and how it felt he decided to go ahead and check me just in case but my cervix is still closed and he said the pain was most likely a pulled muscle, he wants me to take it easy and not lift things and just listen to my body to know what is too much! As excited as we all are to meet this little girl we are NOT ready yet she still has 15 weeks that she can cook and she better just cook until at least 12 more that is even pushing it!
