Savannah's here!


So its been a month she she was born but we are happy to announce the birth of our little girl Savannah Therese Cook. She was born on February 21st at 3:28pm! She weigh 6lbs 15oz and was 20.5 inches long. The labor went pretty well other than lasting for what seemed like FOREVER! My water broke at about 12:15am so I was in labor for about 15 hours.


Life as a new mom has been a little hard to get used to. When Savannah was only 4 days old she was hospitalized. They never found anything wrong with her but the whole experience was really rough for all of us. We are all doing great now! She's now 8lbs 14oz and 22 inches long!

Happy New Year!



Well we are 2 weeks into the new year and everything is going great. Jacob and I went for our last sonogram before our little girl is born. she looks great. She was sleeping though most of it and she wouldn't move when we tried to poke at my belly. The sono tech said that she will probably a pretty even tempered little girl...we can only hope he is right!! Im and now 7 months preggo! I cant believe how fast the time has gone by, only 2 more months to go! I am starting to get a little nervous about everything. We still have a lot to do to get ready for her and sometimes I don't think it will ever get done. We started child birth classes last week and have 3 more to complete. We also took a tour of the baby center at the hospital which only added to my nervousness. It made the whole thing seem so much more real than it has been. The reast of our life has been pretty crazy sinc before christmas. I started working full time for a few weeks after my fall classes ended and that at the start of the new year I started a 2 week Janurary Term class that is pretty intence. Its a short story class and i have severl hours of reading every night and papers to write. Ill be done in 2 days though!!! After that things should start to slow down until the baby comes. I plan on working a few days a week until the middle of Feb to keep my self from going completly insane while I wait for our little girl to arrive. I'm not sure when I will write again, my life will be pretty boring for the next 2 months!
