Baby update

Hi

I am out of sorts here too much has been going on and finally caught up with my and so I have been taking things real easy.

Kerry and Jaxon came home on the Saturday .Can you believe it that's 5 days after he was born but the doctors said Kerry is doing good and everything is OK with her and Jaxon is all clear,No brain damage no problems just a normal little boy.

Thank you God......

Kerry said Jaxon is so good he sleeps 5-6 hours at a time and doesn't cry just makes a squeak noise hence his new nick name "Squeak".I can just imagine him when he is 21 and 6 foot still being called Squeak...

I have been down to see him and his mum a few times since he got home but Phew it has taken it out of me.....

Lots of photos have been taken and here are just a few....

 

Dad with Squeak introducing him to his family of Ziggy and Diesel.

                                                My mother meeting her new Great Grand son.....

                                              This is my sister meeting her new great nephew.....

 

LM was mesmerized by squeak......

                         And a still very very happy proud Nana and her little Squeak....I am so in love with this little fella.

Although check out silly Nana she is wearing sunglasses on her head with her reading glasses up there as well.Poor kid will think I have 6 eyes...he he he
Can't wait to show you all the dress up photos  we have done of Squeak ....they are so cute...

 I am sooooo clever ha ha I better watch  out for the wind in case it blows my tickets off me...ha ha ha

Soccer 2013

Well it's that time of year again....Soccer.

The LM was enrolled last year in the under 5's and while he was there he just didn't really get till maybe the last two games....

Fast forward to 2013 and we enrolled him again in the under 6's.I think he should be better this time around as he  is a bit older (fingers crossed ).

Training starts this week then games start early April..yeah ....NOT...Can you gather I am not a fan of soccer.I do go to most games and do the go go cheer but if I can get out of it I do...Does that make me a  mean mother ?  Kev enjoys soccer so he can do that one.I watch the swimming and now kung fun I am all sports out .

Anyway Kev took LM into the shops and got his new soccer boots.I told him get any colour but please not blue ( I hate blue)  
So off they went and LM ran in to shoe me his new shoes.....I tell you this I AM GOING SOCCER BOOT SHOPPING NEXT YEAR....

WHY.....

PURPLE!!!!!!!

It may not be blue but purple urgh.....no actually double  URGH URGH.....

LM loves them so I just smiled at him  mmmm beautiful mate.....and gave Kev the look..........

Pink day

Today is "PINK "day at school.The school is raising money for Breast Cancer Awareness.

They had to wear pink and give a $2 donation.Well in case you haven't noticed we have a boy.No pink here.No pink shorts no pink tshirts no pink socks but I do have PINK HAIRSPRAY.......

So out it came ...cause LM's hair is dark I usually spray it white first then do the pink.Today was no different except I was in a rush but we think it looks great.

LM took Minnie Mouse as she is pink.

I felt like crap when we got to school and all the kids are wearing pink there was only a handful not wearing pink and my boy was one of them   boo hoo........

But at least he had pink hair and a pink ribbon he was happy I was not.

I am going to get him a pink shirt if it kills me for next time.I will start looking through eBay today after my chores...

Also they are  selling pink donuts and pink lemonade and pink lollie bags all for gold coin donations....I gave him some money for that as well.

Then because I am so nice  or maybe I am a suck up I made some mini pink cupcakes for LM's class.I wanted to because I thought what about the kids that didn't bring money at least they can have a pink cupcake and be happy and LM loved doing this.....

LM did the decorating.I just cooked and iced but they look "pink a luscious"

Have a great day
love

Meet my Grandson Jaxon.

Today has been the best day of my life,no hang on the day Kerry was born was the best ,no hang on a minute the day I married Kevin was the best day of my life....

OK so I have 3 really magical days in my life and now I am going to share with you my latest best day in my life day....

Last night Kerry was moved to an anti natal ward.All tubes are out and they are very happy with her progress .The only thing is now that is a problem is just the effects of a "c" section.YEAH !!!!

Baby is also great today he had all tubes taken off him.There is no brain damage and he is going to go into  a  room with Kerry.

I couldn't sleep last night I just kept going over and over what has happened and my legs were giving me grief so that when I woke up today I told Kev I was going to drive in to see her.(It is an hour away from our house) Kev said no way and that he would take a day off (RDO) and take me in YES!!!! (I did not want to drive it because I knew I couldn't handle it but I would have if I had too)

So off we go to the hospital.Kerry is a room by herself .It was so good to see her.She had her shower washed her hair and felt great except for the pain in her belly.
Baby was going to be brought up later to stay in her room 24/7.Emmanuel has to stay the night in her room to help Kerry lift baby and just be there.

We were going to go down to the nursery to see baby when a nurse wheeled him in.

OMG to see him laying in the crib was amazing no tubes just a tiny bandage on his chin,he looked so small and delicate.Actually he looked like a totally different baby without his tubes and cables.He is so beautiful.Lovely dark hair (although I think I seen a hint of red ) (I used to have red hair ha ha )
He has Kerry's long fingers and Mannys nose and forehead.and like I said sooooooo beautiful ...

Kerry said I could hold him and Kev lifted him out and gave him to me OMG OMG OMG I started to cry...."Hello Jaxon I am your Nana and I have been waiting a very long time for you,I am going to love and kiss and hug you,spoil you with lollies and take you to AC/DC concerts...I love you my little baby" how I got all that out while crying still amazes me,But he opened his eyes and looked at me,I swear he did and when he held my finger -Well guess who melted and thought yes little boy you have my heart wrapped around your finger forever.....

Very happy Nana although you wouldnt think so since I am crying...

I even have a blue hankie...

I had to unrapped him so I could check him out again.I know I saw him before all naked but this time I could touch....

                                         Yes I am wrapped around his finger for always....

   Hello my little boy ....I am your Nana and you and I are going to have an amazing time together...

He has the cutest little feet .....

 

                                                        Very happy and relived Poppy....

 

Mate do I have some things to tell you about this family ......

 

Little weeny ears...... 

                                                               My wonderful Grandson.....

                                                                         3 generations.....

 

Mummy's little boy....

 

                                                                   Love this picture.....

                                                              NOW DRUM ROLL........
  THE PICTURE I COULDN'T WAIT TO SEE.....

 

My daughter and her son......

 

Pure joy.....

 

When I told LM that Kerry has seen Jaxon and fed him he said "Kerry is like Mary now"

"what ?"

"kerry is like Mary"

"what are you talking about mate"

 

"MARY !!! just like Mary and Jesus"

OH-click he is learning religion at school and last week asked me "who fed Jesus"

 

Thanks again for all the wonderful well wishes...

Kerry update

What a hectic day it was yesterday.At least I slept better last night after seeing both Kerry and Jaxon.

Before I say anything more I want to give thanks to you guys .you don't know me or Kerry yet the warmth  and genuine concern given to us  has been overwhelming  for me.

My family and I really appreciate all the  comments and emails and phone calls concerning my precious two ....

thanks with all my heart.......xxxx

We went to RPA yesterday and went to see Kerry first I had to see my little girl and make sure she was alright..

I was not really prepared to see her like that and as she was sleeping it made it look worse.I was naughty and took her photo so one day she can look back on it and will remember it.

 

As of today she is still in ICU and they are trying to stop the bleeding.She has not seen her son yet but has been told by the nurses that Jaxon has stabilized and they hope to bring him down to see her today.

 

A very proud and worried Nana checking out her baby Jaxon.I  am calling him JD which is his first and last name.

Pop is very happy to see his grandson. what a grin...

Emmanuel sent me this picture..,Doctors are very happy his eyes are open and he appears alert.

 

Proud and exhausted Daddy....

My poor JD....he is getting air pushed into his lungs and tubes to feed him.The blue thing on his belly is ice packs to cool him down I am not sure why but it has something to do with his brain....

The Doctors were very worried about brain damage and are monitoring him for signs of seizures,this is due to when he was born they had to resuscitate him as he wasn't breathing...

Emmanuel says he has Kerry's toes.I agree....

He is such a little fighter.He weighed in at 3.97kilos..... Emmanuel said he will be a football player.

Isn't he beautiful....but the photo I want to see more than anything is the one of Kerry holding her son...

thanks again everyone you truly great people  . friends...

Kerry and Baby update

Well what a weird day......I cant feel the excitement I did earlier,I cant stop crying and OMG am I praying.....I mean really praying...I cant lose my daughter I just cant.

Not now she is my life.....

So this is the news ....there is no news....Emmanuel still has not seen Kerry since 6.00pm.Why!!!!
The Doctors have not told him anything yet.We don't know if there was any blood transfusions or what.............

Baby is in neo natal ward being forced oxygen.The Doctor said they are worried cause of the loss of oxygen and other things YEAH WHAT !!!!! tell us...

He has two Doctors looking after him and they have now decided to send the Little fella to RPA Neo natal -Apparently they are more equipped to handle this situation.

Emmanuel has now seen baby as he was being taken away.Poor guy is a bit of a mess.The hospital is trying to get Kerry sent over there as well.

I can't understand why Manny hasn't seen Kerry.Apparently because it was an emergency c section they have to completely knock her out.....but we thought well maybe after an hour or two he could see her-nope...

It's now midnight -6 hours after the c section Manny has been told Kerry is kinda awake and is muttering a bit.

The nurses took the following pictures and Manny has just sent them over.He looks so much like Kerry .He is a little chubby one but don't know yet what he weighs...I do know that he is the most perfect baby ever.(that must be the nana in me trying to escape ....not yet the time will come )

I am trying  to get excited about baby but I cant fully till I know Kerry is ok....Then I will worry about bub and then get excited.

This little grumpy face is Kerry to a T.....

He actually looks like me when I had my heart attack and was attached to all these wires and tubes...

You can't see him only just but Manny said this is baby's first set of wheels.

I am going to cry and pray now.I just want everything to be back to normal and everyone being happy you know like in OZ....

Thanks for the emails and texts both Manny and I and Kev have really appreciated them and I will be showing Kerry as soon as.

We told LM that Kerry has had Peanut.....his response was to slap himself on his head and say "Oh no did I miss it..." nope its just starting mate.

Please God this is all in your hands now (and the doctors..) Please I beg you look after them...

Baby update

Wells here is the latest news.

We have a grandson but I cant be excited yet.

There was some problems  and Kerry and baby's blood pressure dropped plus a few other things so they had to do an emergency C section around 6.oopm ..

Emmanuel has just called she has had the baby .he hasn't seen either Kerry or baby,has no details on
either one freaking out....He was told he can see Kerry in around 2 hours.Its no use me going down it would take over an hour and they are very strict regarding visting and Kerry is in no state for visitors even if it is her stressing out mum.So I wait with the phone on my lap for any news.

Although I am excited that he is here this is not the beginning of the precious bub and mother
to be like this...

I don't want to celebrate yet till I know everything is ok with the 3 of them......

I am going to cry now like a big baby myself and pray like I never have

love
dee

Come on Peanut -come and meet your Nana......Oh and your mummy and daddy and pop and omg everyone is hanging to meet you kid .................hurry up.....

Baby news

                                              BABY NEWS FLASH......

Well  it's 1.00pm on Monday 4th March and I have just got a phone call from Emmanuel...

IT HAS STARTED.......HE IS ON HIS WAY......

Kerry has been to the hospital and they have sent her home to rest as it is early stages yet but it has definatley started HE is on the way.

As Emmanuel was telling me this I was crying OMG I am crying now I am just so excited....

Please God let my baby have a good labour and please bring us a healthy little boy for us (me) to love and keep them all safe....

Thanks to everyone for the well wishes although I have probably driven you nuts with my ramblings  but I AM EXCITED ...
                                                   Tonight or tomorrow I am going to be a

                                                                    NANA.......

Just practising.....

 

Looks and sounds great....

 

No baby news yet......

Five days to go....

Well we are onto the final countdown less than a week to go.Actually it is 5 days to go but who is counting.

We had a family dinner last night and gee Kerry looks so tired.Peanut is the size of a 41week baby but they wont do anything till Kerry is 2 weeks over.At the moment she is only 39 weeks.

Midwife says Peanut is engaged and ready and to expect a big boy and she can feel his head which is big....great .

                                                   So now we wait and wait and wait.....

I just hope I get to see him.I have had a bad day today and slept all day.Then got up at 4.30pm to make dinner for the kids.There was no way I was cancelling dinner,not a chance.It was funny watching Kerry's belly Peanut wasn't kicking but just moving and I could see it-pure magic.....

Emmanuel cooked a chili last night for their dinner and she had chili rice for lunch.Emmanuel was told chili will bring labour on.

I said all you are going to do is make her have a giant case of gas and we don't want her to "fart" the baby out.

I told him to take her home and have good sex....(even when I said it I couldn't look at either of them) but that is what everyone told me to do  to induce labour.but telling them to have sex is what got them in this situation in the first place ha ha

So who knows when he will get here.

If she goes today he will be born on 1st march 2013 which is 1/3/13........maybe.......

Anyone got any ideas on how to get him to come out??????
