Braxton loves his Daddy!
After I feed Braxton at night, Aaron likes to hold him on his chest and burp him as he falls asleep.
Storytime with Daddy!

Our Little Man
Braxton had to get his two month old shots today. He did scream when they poked him but I was amazed at how fast he calmed down and went to sleep. Poor little guy, I hate when there is nothing i can do for him.
This outift was Aaron's when he was a baby. So for Father's Day I took some pictures of Braxton in this outfit for Aaron. We compared Braxton's picture to one of me as a baby and one of aaron and he definitely has Aaron's eyes and nose, and my lips and chin. He is 50/50 all the way.

7 weeks old!
Braxton was blessed on May 30th 2010! Great Granma Foster had this blanket made for him for his blessing day, and we used Uncle Kevin's blessing outfit, It fit him perfectly! It was a beautiful blessing. I am so grateful that I have a husband who can use the Priesthood!
Graysen was born 3 weeks before Braxton and he was blessed on June 6th 2010. This is Braxton and Graysen meeting for the first time. Graysen now weighs 8 lbs 5 oz. That is how big Brax was when he was born. Crazy!

11 days old already!
Well I don't even know where to start. It has been an eventful 11 days already. braxton had jaundice and had to use the biliblnaket for 9 days he just got off of it, and we are so glad. We can actually dress him now and hold him without that dumb thing. Braxton is a very content baby, which we couldn't be more grateful for. He only fusses when he is hungry or filling his diaper. Other then that he is wide eyed and content. Nighttime has been good too, Braxton will wake up about 3 times only to eat. He doesn't start to cry real loud he usually just starts to make noises and I get to him beofre he can wake everyone else up. Braxton loves his swing. He is a very spoiled boy with all the attention he gets from me and Aaron, including all the attention from Gradnma Foster and his aunts (because we live with them). He hasn't got to meet Grandpa Foster yet because he is in Atlanta but next wednesday he will be home and get to meet him.
We love this little boy more then we ever thought imaginable. Yesterday we took Braxton shopping and it must have worn us both out because this is what we looked like when we got home and finally sat down on the couch.. Other then that here are just some pics of our little angel we wanted to share with you.

A New Beginning
Thursday April 22nd we arrived at the hospital to be induced. We were supposed to go at 10:00 pm but there was a misunderstanding and they had us come in at 1:00pm. So I got checked into my room and was admitted around 1:30. Here is the beginning of a long few days!

We were so excited to finally be there because we knew we weren't going home without our little Braxton. I will admit I was nervous but it was all worth it!

I was supposed to get a pill when i first got to the hospital to start things up but Braxton's heartbeat was so up and down I did not get any pills until about 5:0 pm. So the first few hours were quite long. Although I wasn't in pain or anything so it was good. Once they gave me the pill it started my contractions pretty regular but I was still only about a 4. My body liked to go very slow during this whole process. So here is a contraction before my epidural.
And after I was pretty much myself again, the epidural was my best friend the rest of the labor and delivery. It did numb my whole right leg and my left leg didn't really get an of it but i still was numb. My right leg was just dead I couldn't move it on my own.

They gave me oxygen just to keep Braxton's heartbeat regular and I had a little fever. So I looked lovely! Aaron was the best support ever. I couldn't have done any of it without him.
On Friday at about 5:30 or so They told me I was at 9 cm. So i started getting pretty excied. people started coming and waiting in the waiting room. Little did we know it would be another 8 hours before we got to see our Little Braxton.
I think i misplaced this picture... oops!

After a long 32 hours of waiting and 3 hours in delivery. We finally met Braxton Scott. He weighed 8 lbs. 5 oz. and was 21 inches long. He had a tough delivery we had to use the vaccuum on his poor little head because his head wasn't sitting straight and it was quite big so it was kinda hard to get him here, but it was all worth it and I would do it again in a hearbeat for him.

The beginning of our new little family. We love him more then we ever could have imagined!
My new little Man, it's amazing what a blessing he is in my life already. However I could not have made it through this without my wonderful husband Aaron. Because of his faith in me I knew i could do anything. Bonding with my little boy!

Daddy spending time with Braxton. What handsome men I have in my life. How lucky can a girl get? Aaron loves his son. I love watching them together.

Grandma Foster!

Braxton had a higher range of jaundice so we had to stay an extra day in the hospital and he had to spend it under these lights. He looked like he was just chilling in a tanning bed. He has his little bug eyes and everything. It did help him a lot. He still had to bring home a lighted blanket for a couple days but at least we are at home now.

Finally on Monday we got to come home.

Dad and Brax getting ready to go home.

Here we are finally leaving. I hadn't seen the hallyway in the 4 days. It was nice to be out of bed.
We made it home and we love it!!!!

Here Braxton is just relaxing at home and not in the hospital... he loves it! We are so glad he is doing so much better so that we could bring him home. We are excited for this new beginning in life. Thanks for all the support and love. Braxton is one spoiled little boy.

Leaving rexburg:(
Time is getting close! I am now 37 weeks along. Only about 3 weeks.. give or take... to go! We can't wait!
This semester while we were up here in Rexburg we put together a bowling team. We were placed #1 all season. We made it into the top 6 teams and ended up getting 3rd place. It was fun it gave us a chance to get out once a week. Our team consisted of Aaron and I, Brett and Emily Blodgett, and Brent and Janeen Carver.. with little Jackson to entertain all of us! It was quite fun. we are just sad we have to move away from them all.
