Brooklyn Kenzie Butterfield

Brooklyn finally came, I went into labor the night before I was suppose to be induced. Labor was complete hell, she got stuck in my birth canal, I was pushing for 5 hours before she came. And I finally got my epidural when I was 7 CM dilated but then they ending up stopping it two hours later so I could feel when to push, so in the end I felt everything. She is worth every second of the pain though!
Today she is 5 weeks old, I can't believe how fast she is growing up! Here are some pictures from the hardest and most amazing 5 weeks of my life...

Brooklyn's coming!




I've been putting off starting this blog for way too long now, so with Brooklyn on the way any day now I decided now would be the best time to start it. I'm almost 38 weeks now and each day seems to get harder and harder to carry her, I swear she is gaining half a pound a day! I've been taking pictures of myself each week but haven't posted any because its really hard to see how bloated and big I've gotten but its something I've started to accept.

Here I am at 35 weeks:



And then here are some pictures of Brooklyn at her 19th week ultrasound:

And two videos, the first one is my favorite because shes talking to herself and then in the second on she is playing with the umbilical cord:
