Been a while

WOW! It has been FOREVER. OK, I have set up a Picasa page or however it is classed and will be updating you soon.

OH YEAH!

So, we went to small group last night and Ariel through a fit as we were leaving, and continued throwing a fit for another 8-10 minutes, UNTIL she through up. I have got to get that little girl to burp. Anyway, the night before we had a 2 hour fight to sleep, so at midnight thirty I was sterilizing bottles :) So, back to Friday night, so Friday night after life group we got home after she spit up after screaming for 8 - 10 minutes and she starts screaming again once in the house, soooo I got a bottle ready :) I'm sure you are thinking, a breastfeeding mom doesn't need a bottle, you are right :) the husband of a breastfeeding wife needs a bottle. OH YEAH! it daddy feeding time :) The time before when we tried to bottlefeed she did not take but last night God came through in a major way :) Thank you Jesus! SO, this morning I was nice, I fed her at 5 BUT dad was given a crash course in preparing the bottle :) It was a glorious extra hour of sleep, for me :)

Twinkle

WOOOOOW! Look at me I'm sitting in Mommys spot

Hummm whatever I'm good


So whats on tv?


Huhhhhhh so board. I think I'll do some push ups

1 Month - almost :)

Goooood Afternoon :)

A quick flash back.

Christmas was awesome, we went to Grandmothers and Granny's.

At Grandmothers we took "The Generational" picture, 5 generations, from 105 to <1.


At Grannys we saw big smiles from Grandpapa AND played under the Christmas tree.


Since the last time Ariel has has done some growing. She can no longer fit her NB stuff, including the 100 count of diapers that daddy bought, the endless packs of unopened socks, and various other unworn clothes :) Now we are wearing 0-3's, man where did the time go, she has been in 0-3's for the past week and a half.

Anyway, Ariel is an awesome sleeper, she came home sleeping 4 hours at night and has now began to sleep 5 hours, thanks to the perfect swaddling blankets :) YES! AND now that I have stopped watching tv during the night time feedings she only stays awake for 30 - 40 minutes, instead of 60 - 90 minutes. (She likes watching the late night and early morning news)

Finally Here...and She is All That!

Well, the wait is now over. Finally, the newest edition to the Jacoway family has arrived. Her name is Ariel Renee' Jacoway. She was born on December 18th, 2008 at 10:37pm. She is 6lbs 15ounces with 19 1/4 inches long. She is so bright and alert. Not to mention that she is too cute for words to describe. We are so proud to be her parents. I look forward to sharing so many more moments of pride of our baby girl.

No Baby Yet ...But Soon....Very Soon

Hmm, well it is the 16th and no baby to show for all the muss and fuss around this whole December 15th due date. We are still anxiously waiting her arrival. Sami' was fairly certain that she would be born on the 12th because of the full moon thing. I am not sure how that whole full moon thing works whether it is some sort of cosmic magnetic force that pulls babies from the wombs of mothers or if werewolf's just scare moms into labor but I am told that there is in fact something significant about a full moon and giving birth. Well, it didn't happen for us, so I will just have to take their word for it. I however, was convinced that we had made the womb much too comfortable for her and it might take her a little longer to make her entrance. I seem to be right so far.
While we can't wait it seems that that our friends and family may be more on edge than we. We have been offered so much free advise on how to get her to come, such as:

1. Go for a long walk
2. Run Stairs
3. Exercise
4. Drink Mineral Oil
5. Move Heavy Furniture
6. Take a bumpy car ride
7. Eat hot foods...etc.

Now we have not intentionally tried anyone of these but as we move further from that due date we might have to implore one of these a day until we get her to come out. Then we will definitively know what is the best way to encourage labor.

Should one of those options not work in the next 6 days she will be induced next Monday. According to the doctor, Sami' right now is 3cm dilated and 75% effaced. Really, It could be any day now. But for sure there will be some news by Monday. Stay tuned for the latest.
