Taylor is here!!!

Taylor Marie Furman arrived on October 16, 2012 at 11:59 pm (yes, one minute before midnight). She weighed 6 lbs, 3 oz and was 18 1/2 inches long. My induction was scheduled for that morning at 6:00 am, but it got pushed back to 4:00 pm (labor and delivery was full). They started the induction process at 5:00 pm and Taylor was here 7 hours later. Taylor is so tiny and the sweetest little thing! She looks a lot like Jack when he was born but has brown hair.

Jack is so sweet with her! He loves on her nonstop. When she cries, he runs to her and says "it's ok, your big brother is here". Jack is a big help and is a great big brother!

Taylor is now one week old and we are all enjoying her and are so happy she's here! We are truly blessed!

Update and Waiting

It's been crazy at our house and we are patiently waiting for Taylor.  I'm 38 weeks and we're so ready for her to be here.  We are adding on/renovating our house to make room for our growing family.  I hate moving and we love our house and neighborhood so we decided to add on....not sure if that was the best decision when your 9 months pregnant.  We're adding on a detach garage, renovating our current space by adding a playroom/guest room, bathroom and a mudroom (I've always wanted a mudroom).  The process is taking longer then we thought but we're halfway done.  Taylor's room is not done and will not be done until the house is complete.  I have her crib, bedding, closet and changing table set up but the guest bed is still in her room and there are no decorations on the wall.  I feel awful, but she will sleep in the bassinet in our room for 2-3 months.  Other then that, we are very excited about all the changes and can't wait to meet our little girl!

Jack is doing great!  He is now in school 5 days a week and loves it!.  He is learning so much and has made some great friendships.  He especially loves this little girl named Kate.  He talks about her all the time and his teacher told me they always sit next to each other and chase each other around the playground....he has his first girlfriend!  Jack is also very excited and ready for Taylor to be here.  Every night before bed, he gives my tummy a kiss and hug and tells her good night and I love you.  The other night, he told her to hurry and come out.  It was so cute and sweet!  He's excited about being a big brother and we know he's going to be great!

I don't have any updated pictures to post (we've been too busy to take pictures) but I wanted to give a quick update.  Hopefully the next post will be about Taylor and her arrival!!
