some time with his best friend luke and that was january posted by april and mark at 10 59 am 4 comments october 14 2011 1 month old seriously it s been over a month since my little dude was born he s no longer a newborn deacon is changing and growing every day he s 85th percentile for head circumference 81st for height and 30th for weight yep he s our tall big headed skinny boy i saw his first real smile on sept 28th he smiles occasionally and it melts my heart every time he s been lifting his head for a few weeks and he can hold it upright for a few seconds now and move it side to side he makes eye contact with faces and objects he gets pretty gassy sometimes and throws some crazy fits poor guy he has peed on his changing table and all over me many many times his sleep at night is pretty random still but we ve had some good nights with 5 7 hours of uninterrupted sleep his left foot twitches as he falls asleep he loves to sleep on his daddy s chest we re pretty sure he has a dairy sensitivity i ve been trying my best to avoid it it s nearly impossible almost every food label has some sort of dairy byproduct in it and have i mentioned how much i love dairy it s worth a happy baby though a few times while i ve been changing his diaper i ve watched him frantically grab at the air and he gets a hold of his own hair and screams soooo loud like someone s hurting him i have to pry his little fingers away it s a little sad but mostly funny he loves music especially when his daddy sings to him one of his favorite songs is the imperial march the dirty diaper song he has the best sneeze ever he does a sneeze then the cutest sigh afterwards we ve been trying to catch it on video which is not an easy task i caught the end of one here sorry to go on and on about him but i want to be able to remember all these little things pretty much he s the cutest kid and we couldn t love him more he s super sweet and he really brings so much love and joy into our home and our family here are a few outtakes from his 1 month photos posted by april and mark at 5 07 pm 6 comments october 5 2011 my labor story so it s about time i share my not so normal labor story i think it s pretty unique and funny here it goes sept 5th at 2 00am i woke up to a pretty gnarly painful contraction in my mind i m thinking this could be the real thing not so much for the next 20 hours i had contractions varying from every 5 10 minutes apart when people say back labor is the worst believe them back labor is the worst so every 5 10 minutes my uterus would contract in the front with some cramping down low and then it felt like hundreds of burning knives were stabbing my lower back i kept waiting for them to get closer together you know the 5 1 1 rule i tried sleeping while i was waiting that didn t happen mark helped by rubbing my lower back but it was still pretty awful a few warm baths a lot of exercise ball bouncing and a lot of moaning took place in the next 20 hours finally sept 6th at around 8 30pm i had a few contractions that were pretty bad and were ranging from between 3 and 5 minutes apart that lasted about 30 minutes so i was ready to go to the hospital about to leave for the hospital assuming 20 hours of contractions had to have progressed me further than the 3 cm i was the week before we checked in to ob triage they hooked me up to the monitor and of course my contractions went back to about 6 7 minutes apart they checked me and get this i was still at 3 cm i couldn t believe it i was 90 effaced and at station 0 it could still be a while till i would be dilated more so they decided to send me home but to help me get some sleep they gave me 2 ambien and told me to go directly to sleep when i get home because ambien can give you some crazy hallucinations if you stay awake we re driving the short 2 minute drive home and as we turn onto our street no joke my water broke mark luckily covered the passenger seat with a garbage bag and towel earlier that day he asked if i didn t just pee my pants but when i got out and showed him he knew it was the real thing i changed my clothes and went back to the hospital at around 10 00pm as i was getting out of the car i could hardly see anything or walk i literally felt and looked like i was drunk almost everything from this point on is a blur as we were checking in at the er the real contractions started man were they terrible i pretty much lost it they got me a wheelchair and i was wailing around like a crazy person mark said it was quite a sight for everyone in the waiting room i could hardly see and my brain was hallucinating and going in a bunch of crazy directions the next few hours i was tripping out and acting crazy mark has to tell this part of the story cause i literally don t remember most of it ambien is crazy stuff they hooked me up to the monitor and checked me again i was having crazy strong contractions and went from 3cm dilated to 6cm in about 15 minutes one of those contractions lasted 3 and a half minutes and the babies heart rate and oxygen dropped all the nurses became frantic threw some oxygen on me gave me a shot of terbutaline to calm down the contractions and were yelling out to prep the or mark tells me now how scary those few minutes were baby s heart rate got better and the room calmed down a bit they quickly gave me the epidural and told me to sleep for a while thumbs up for epidurals one hour later i was dilated to 9cm 10 minutes later i was at 10cm they woke me up and started explaining the pushing process ambien epidural floating on a cloud i felt pretty awesome except i was being goofy and making dumb jokes and i couldn t really stay awake i was falling asleep as dr kingra was talking to me i was even falling asleep between pushes i pushed for about 45 minutes about to start pushing pretty sure i had just said something weird or a lame joke towards the end the adrenaline luckily woke me up more so that i could remember this part they told me he was close and to give a really good push the baby s head shoulders and body all came out at once and they placed him on my chest i was overcome with so many emotions as i looked down saw my baby boy and stroked his little cheek for the first time they took him to the incubator cleaned him up then handed him to his daddy seeing the look on mark s face as he held him for the first time was incredible while the doctor finished with the placenta and stitching i got to hold my wide eyed little boy again then he was passed around the room to mark s mom and dad my mom and my 2 sisters i needed to hold him again so they brought him to me i laid there with my baby surrounded by people that i love and was reminded by my mom that my dad was there with us at that moment i felt it i knew my dad was able to enjoy that moment with us and my baby gets to have his grandpa protect him and watch over him from heaven still when i think about that moment i can picture what my dad would look like holding my brand new baby the excitement and love on his face overall it was a crazy experience and one that i will cherish and remember forever deacon completes our family the love and joy he has brought to mine and mark s lives is incredible deacon alexander sheen born at 2 37am on his due date september 7 2011 weighed 7 lb 5 oz 20 inches long light brown
