Luther & Mommy's creations

luther found a canvas i had laying around and kept begging to paint on it. i finally gave in, and he painted for at least an hour. the next day he started asking again so i ended up letting him repaint the same canvas. he attention span is really increasing.


he was so proud of his creation

#3 due in July

We found out a week ago that i am pregnant. sometime in july, we am going to have 3 kids, 3 and under!! i am sure most out there think i am crazy(that ok, i am), but we are really excited. james and i have both always wanted a big family and with #3 on the way we see God making our dreams reality. luther is thrilled and is already wanting to know if he can hold the baby when he/she is born and if the baby can sleep with him in his "big boy bed". we actually were going to try to keep our news on the down low for a little while, but luther has done a good job of making that impossible. so, we gave up keeping it a secret. i have my first ultrasound the end of the month, so i will know an exact due date then. i am about 7 weeks now and not sick yet. please join me in praying that will last as long as possible. i was pretty sick with my other two, but better with pearl than luther, so i have hope this could go even smoother. pearl on the other hand seems to be very u...

Luther Arrives!!

Image
On Monday I went to my regular visit to the doctor. My blood pressure was up, so my doctor sent me over to the hospital to stay overnight for tests and to be monitored.

My blood pressure continued to be an issue and of course we were very concerned about Luther, so by Thursday morning we decided that the best thing for both of us was to just go ahead and have a c-section. Little Luther Samuel Layton was born healthy and strong at 12:22pm on Thursday Oct. 19th. He actually weighted 6 lbs and 11 oz an...

Breastfeeding: A good start

Image
Breastfeeding has been a huge part of my life for almost 5 years(14 months with Luther, 15 months with Pearl and I am on the 10th month with Calvin and still counting).  With Luther, I had a lot of problems in the beginning and that caused me to do a ton research on breastfeeding.  I read lots of books and info on the web, talked with many of other mommies about their experiences (including my own mommy), and worked with several different lactation consultants. Armed with knowledge, I was actually able to see what info was helpful using trial and error.  With Pearl and then Calvin, I was able to prevent all of the problems I had had with Luther and resolve new challenges my own. I have friends come to me with questions on the subject often and I have realized that I have a lot of help to offer.  So, I have sorted through all of the info and come up with what I think you really need to know in the beginning.  The first few days and weeks really make or break...
