Talon's 1st real bath

Tonight was Talon's 1st real bath. We have been waiting for his "belly button" to fall off so he could go in water, rather then just a sponge bath. It started out very peaceful. I started to set it all up on the kitchen floor so that big sister Sailor could "help". Well i soon found out that she wanted in the bath too, so into the bathroom we all went. I got Sailor in the tub and Talon set up in his little tub. I was filling his bath up using a bowl Sailor plays with in the bath. She then thought it was ok to pour water in too and all over the floor!!! This was a very wet bath time tonight, we had all had fun......we Talon did until the end. Im sure he will soon enjoy his bath time just as much as Sailor does.

1st day home

More Talon....

Talon Anderson is here!!!

Its Thursday June 9th at 7:45am and Erik and I arrive at the hospital for our scheduled induction. We get all checked in and head up stairs to our labor & delivery room. By the time we get up there and get me hooked up to the IV and start the picocine it is about 9am. Things are going very normal. My doctor came in at about 9:30am and checked me, i was at 2cm. So she broke my water......thats when things started to kick in!!! About an hour after my water was broken the contractions started to get really bad. I was in pain but it was manageable. My nurse asked me if i wanted the epidural now since the anesthesiologist was going into surgery soon and i would have to wait. I am very thankful i got it when i did!!! She checked me again and i was at 6cm!! By this time it is just after 11am. The epidural started to work, but i was still in a ton of pain. I wanted to call the anesthesiologist back to give me another dose and he got there just in time. I told my nurse that i felt like i had push and she said the anesthesiologist was on his way. She checked me one last time and i was 10cm with the baby's head come out!!! The anesthesiologist came in and gave another dose and right behind him was my doctor and it was time to push!!! 9 minutes later Talon Anderson Gonzales was born!!!! 7 lbs 12 oz 20 inches and just perfect!!!
It was love at first sight.

{recap.....went from 6cm to 10cm in a matter of minutes, less then 3 hours of labor, 9 minutes of pushing & a perfect baby}

{and then there were 4}

Show me your teeth

This is the face that Sailor makes when you ask her to show you her teeth......she smiles with a silly under bite and shows her bottom teeth =)

Oreo Cookie

Sailor got herself a little snack the other day. Went in the pantry and straight for my favorite, Oreo cookies!! She only took one, but she  made it last. She was very pleased to figure out that they pull apart and become 2 cookies!!! Like mother like daughter =)
