Braxton & Brinley

I know this is a short blog and I promise I will post another one later, but I had to post this picture. A couple mornings ago I was sleeping with Brinley and Braxton joined us, I caught this picture of them and I love it so much. I only got it with my phone so the quality is not the best but I did my best to fix it, it was so dark before!!!

Well to let you all know if you already didn't. Brinley has arrived safe and sound a little early of course. She was actually born at 34 weeks and 3 days, so she was about 6 weeks early. But we are glad she is here and she is so cute!!!!

So this is what happened, on Firday night at midnight my water broke and Adam and I raced to Davis Hospital. My doctor showed up about 2hours later and did an ultrasound and said she was breech and that we were going to have to get her out and a c-section was our only answer to get her here safe. So Adam and had a little emotional moment together and I went in for the c-section. The C-Section went ok except for the fact I couldn't stop throwing up the whole time. Adam was there to support me and he did a good job. He also made the comment that he got to see a whole new side of me from Intestines, Liver, Kidneys, and Bladder. She came out and she was so cute she weighed 5 lbs 12.4 oz and was 19.5 inches long. She was rushed to the NICU and she will be there for awhile. We really don't know how long she will be there, we have to take it day by day. I was released on Tuesday morning, and I seem to be doing ok with the circumstances. We get to see her only at certain times of the day. So Adam and I are trying to balance going to the hospital, kids, and getting our lifes back together. I'll keep you all updated on her progress and if she has any changes or gets to come home I'll let you all know.

Brinley with her proud Aunt Megan who raced to get here in time from St. George but missed it by 2 hours but were glad she got to spend 3 days with us.


My dad gave Brinley a wonderful blessing and so we all got to go back. Jeff and Mike also helped with the blessing, Adam and I are so grateful for the wonderful blessing.

Brinley got this cute beanie from the NICU nurse and Adam and I think it was so cute we couldn't resist putting it on her.

San Francisco

So Adam has flight benefits working at Skywest, so we decided we would go on a one day adventure to San Francisco. We had so much fun, our flight left at 8:30am and we got in San Fran an hour and a half later. We rode the underground subway to the Piers. That was a new adventure for me, the subway can be a little scary but we made it with no problems. We took a trolley to Pier 39 where all the shops and places to eat are. We ate Clam Chowder in a bread bowl, that Adam still talks about and says was the best ever and he wants to go back and have more. We walked to the pier and saw Alcatraz and we saw the famous seals at Pier 39, that are very noisy. We pretty much just hung out together and enjoyed each others company. Which was great and very romantic in a way to be somwhere with my husband. We also went to an aquarium and it was very interesting and fun. Adam even touched some fish, but I steer clear of that department. We got a flight back around 6:00 and we landed back in SLC around 8:30 which put us away exactly 12 hours. It was a fun and short trip I know we will always talk about it. We got home and were both very tired and crashed when we got home. Adam is already talking about where we will go next, but I have to remind him that it's going to have to wait until the baby is born and so I don't think we will have any crazy trips for awhile but I know that we will go on more for sure.

That is Alcatraz in the back, I look so prego!!!

Me and the Trolley!!



Looking HOTTT!!!!

Wedding Photos

So these are our wedding pictures. We got them back on Sunday and are so happy with what was taken. We hope that you all like them.

Brinley

This is her face with her arm up to her face, practically every ultrasound she has her arm up to her face it's kind of cute.

Well I'm so excited to let you all know that we got a computer and printer with scanner. So hopefully I will blog a little more if I have the time. So with our new scanner I thought I would post some ultrasound pictures of our little Brinley. We are so excited for her to come and join our family. We are obviously not completely prepared yet for her to come but it's happening slowly. I'm also glad to announce that her daddy finnally felt her this morning. He has been so frustrated about it cuz everytime before she would stop kicking like she knew what we were doing. But today she stopped being so stubborn and let her daddy finnally see what I feel all day long. I was so excited since this is Adam's first baby and he is so excited and nervous all at the same time. He's all about 20 questions and is so amazed by the whole pregnancy process, I would have to admit at the beginning I was a little frustrated with him since this is my third and I know the whole process. But now I have gotten better about it and I think it's kind of cute now to teach and see him learn the whole process. He's going to be an awesome dad and I can't wait to share the whole process with him.

This is Brinley's face on the left hand side with her hand up to her face as usual, this is a 4d ultrasound, you can really see her facial features.

These are feet I promise, I know it's kind of hard to tell but it really is, Adam even made sure that we counted the toes to make sure they were all there with no extras. He's such a HOOT sometimes.

These are her girl parts, I know it's kind of hard to tell but if you look hard enough and long enough you can see that her underthighs are there with the girl parts in the middle, there is no boy my doctor said that he's 99 percent positive. He will never say 100% to just cover his butt!!!

Christmas 2008

Well Christmas went off with a hitch with not to many problems. I sure feel like christmas came and went very fast this year. Adam even made the comment that he really wasn't in the christmas spirit this year and I thought you know me neither. With our wedding in December I think it just made getting in the christmas spirit a little tough this year. The kids had a blast though and loved everything they got this year. Christmas morning was alot of fun, the kids left some cookies that they helped me make and frost with some milk for santa. Well Adam and I thought we would leave a half of a cookie to mabye empathize that santa ate their cookies well the whole day they had to tell everyone that santa didn't eat his last cookie. So I believe from now on we will eat all the cookies so we don't have to be asked a million times as to why he didn't eat all his cookies.
The day after christmas the kids and I flew to St. George to see Megan and my parents. The kids got to fly on their first plane and they had a blast and keep asking Adam and I when they get to go again and where were going to go. On New Years day we got together with all of my family at my house and had christmas since our parents were in St. George. It was alot of fun and the kids love to play with there cousins.
I think back at when I got to play with all of my cousins and you know it was a blast and my sister Mandy and I try to get the kids together as much as we can cuz they play so well together and theres a bond there and memories that our kids will keep with them forever like we do. So all in all it was good holiday here at the Kersey house and we hope to have many more. We hope everyone else had great holidays, and good luck to you all in 2009!!!!!

Wedding

Well I know it's been a month since I have blogged anything. Things have been crazy here at the Kersey house. Well it is official now we are now the Kerseys and it is great I feel like a huge weight has been lifted off of my shoulders. The wedding went very well and was very nice it happened last friday with a ton of help from my Awesome mom and sister that I love so much!! We got to go to Park City for the weekend which was nice to get away and be by ourselves. But we are now back to reality and just glad to be married, it is so cute cuz Brooklyn keeps telling us that were married and that were husband and wife now. It makes me feels so good, but the funny thing is that Brooklyn tells people she is excited but that she doesn't like the kissing which is so funny. I don't think that Adam and kiss to much.
Were just excited now for Christmas and after that we will plan on getting our little baby girl here safe and sound and healthy. I can't wait to see her and I believe her Daddy is a little excited too.
I was so glad to see my sister and her new baby also, I feel like I'm missing out on a lot of her and her new little families lives and so it is a huge treat to see them. Danica has gotten pretty chubby since I seen her last but she is still a cutie and I love her so much.Danica and Braxton sleeping with me!!
