7.21.10

Well, a date for surgery is set for tomorrow morning.  It's an outpatient procedure, and takes about 72 hours for recover,y, so having it on a Friday is a good move.  Problem is that during that time I can't drive, or pick anything up, like say, my daughter.  So, game on for Daddy Erich this weekend.  Luckily he already picks up the slack as needed, so this shouldn't be an issue. 

Took Harper into work for the first time today; she did really well and slept most of the time.  I always said I'd never bring my kids into work, for fear of germs and whatnot, so it's funny that in the "now" I didn't think twice about it. Might as well get that tolerance built up before she heads to daycare, right?

Ahh daycare, something I don't want to even think about, even though it's right around the corner.  I like the place we chose, but am still leery of letting someone else take care of her.  I mean, she'll be spending more time with these people than us, and that's a scary prospect.  Ahh, to be independently wealthy so I could stay home with her.  I don't know how people with multiple kids do it, it's expensive with just one.  I think if we had more than one, I'd definitely weigh the pros and cons of us both working. 

Here are a few more pictures from our daily photo shoots...we do bathtime, then she's in a great mood so we take pictures in cute outfits...enjoy!

Harper Jay Kant has arrived!

The wait is over! On June 9th, at 5:40 pm, Harper Jay Kant entered the world, weighing 8 pounds, 10 ounces and measuring 20.5 inches long! I am so happy to have her in my arms, as is Erich. During the pregnancy, I made the comment on multiple occasions that I bed I'd pay for it during labor, and boy did I...and so the story goes: Tuesday I began having contractions around noon, but nothing that was progressive or in any order, so we decided to just keep our plan to go in at 7:30 to be induced. I was admitted around 8, and the "ripening" agent was started. I was checked around 12 and had progressed enough to warrant starting the Pitocin (around 1). Contractions began, but I really couldn't feel much; it was a long night and I was too excited to sleep (especially after the nurse commented that with these contractions I could be pushing by 7 that morning...I knew it was too good to be true) so I spent the evening with the Lost crew from Season 2, and waking Erich ...

Good Bye First Trimester!

I can't believe that I will be 12 weeks prego next week, it has gone by so fast. It's hellped that I haven't have any sickness, which I am very grateful for. I've kind of have the opposite; I am hungry but nothing sounds appetizing, so as a result I've lost weight. I got a nice little lecture from my dr last week, so I've been trying to eat more, and I think after this weekend, I have to have put on at least 10 pounds! Friday night we had Applebees where we polished off mozzarella sticks, I had a steak and potatoes and veggies, all so tasty! Then today we had Hu Hot for lunch, and just had McDonalds for dinner. I didn't say it was healthy, but it was definitely fattening! I seem to be getting my energy back, there for a while all I wanted to do was sleep. I could still sleep all day, but today I noticed I wanted to do some chores, so I guess that's an improvement. I've also had some lower back pain, which seems to be worse when I sit, which ...

Well, our first week of daycare and work went great!  Harper really seems to enjoy herself there, she eats and sleeps and plays well.  And I've been busy at work so it keeps me from dwelling on her all day.  We had her two month check up on Monday; she weighs 12 lbs 2.5 oz, and is 23 inches long, both in the 75th percentile.  Her head size, which escapes me, was in the 50th percentile.  She has great neck control, and everything else looks good.  She also took all 5 shots like a champ!  She cried some, but I think part of that was hungry cries...we agreed that we've heard her cry worse when her dinner was late! We spent this past weekend in York for Great Grandpa Kant's 91st birthday.  We had fun swimming at the pool; all the boys end up trying to outdo themselves on the diving board, and then the little girls try to mimick their older cousins, uncles and fathers.  Harper hung out with Great Grandma in the shade, but I think she wanted in t...
