December 3rd 2010

i have always said from the beginging how cool would it be to have a baby born on the 2nd of a month because jon is on the 1st cameron the 3rd and me the 4th. so when dec 2nd came along i knew i wasnt going to get my wish. i knew something was going on because i was an emotional wreck. it started with my wonderful dog running down the street in 20 something degree weather one morning on my way to work and me chasing it (which i was in tears when i got him back in the yard from the pain in my back) and the day just went down from there to whoever and whatever it was i was crying over it. i went to bed at about 10:30 ish and the last thought that went through my head was "i wonder if my water will break in my sleep like it did with Cameron" well about and hour later i don't think i had moved that fast in the whole pregnancy as i flew out of bed to the bathroom. i was in shock that it had happened again. i was alone with Cameron. Jon was working in south Texas so i called my mom to come get us. i had trouble getting a hold of Jon and started getting worried that he wasn't going to make it in time. once my water broke the contractions started they were about 8 min apart. we got to the hospital about an hour later and they were at 5 apart and i was not dilated at all. within 30 mins my contractions were right on top of each other and i was at a 1. it was about 2 am and the dr was called the OR team was getting prepped and my husband was not here. they gave me a shot to stop the contractions and hold off as long as possible to get Jon to hospital. it was almost 4 am and they were taking me back to OR. Jon got there about 4:10 got his scrubs on and in the room just in time for them to pull Tenley Reese out. she was 6lbs 13 oz and 19 1/4 in long.

Cameron just adores her. she is so lucky to have him as a big brother he is very helpful.

my surgery went well other then when they did the spinal they got air in my spine and its caused spinal headaches. i have had what feels like a migraine since Friday. the only way to get rid of it is have a blood patch where they take my blood and put in back in my spine through in epidural which i really don't want to do but i can depend on norco to get through the day either. so please pray that all goes well.

thanksgiving pt 2

had to just take these pictures of 3 different generations in the Neal family

*Thanksgiving*

camerons school had a special feast for all the parents, it was wonderful. cameron was an indian named lighting and his little girlfriend was lighting star lol. they are something else. here are some pictures that him and abigail took of each other.

update :(

this pregnancy has been something else...from being so sick in the beginning to kidney stones twice, tore all tendons in right ankle, horrible back pain, now horrible pain in groin that they don't know what it is, to now being put on part time bed rest due to losing 5 lbs in 13 days (which they don't like) i was up to a total of gaining around 15 lbs but now down to 10 which is just about all baby...and with all this pain they want me to REST!!!! I'm down to every week for appts now...so just pray that she comes sooner than later!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

TENLEY REESE!!!!

well Saturday i started having lots of pain and contraction that were about 5-8 min apart so went to hospital...i was not dilated which was good, but had some blood in urine and found out i had kidney stones again blah...i did pass one while at home resting which was not fun...went to Dr today Tenley is great she is head down and Dr said she is weighing in at 5 lbs 9 oz and about 33 weeks...now i had Cameron at 35 weeks and he was 5lbs and 10 oz...she is a chubby lil girl already lol

sea world

we went to halloscreem at sea world on saturday (which at 33 weeks prego i dont recommend it) cameron had so much fun though...before 6pm the park was family friendly but he enjoyed the zombies which ended up being his halloween costume. he was suppose to be a bull rider lol i didnt get many halloween pictures was too busy going house to house

pumpkins

we carved our pumpkins that Cameron got on his field trip to the pumpkin patch with his school. it took a lot of convincing Cameron to stick his hand inside and pull all the "pumpkin guts" (as he calls it) out of the pumpkin, but as soon as he got a hand full he started flinging it everywhere saying "GROSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" it was funny, but here is our final out come.

My Thirty-One

i have decided to start selling Thiry-one products to help me have more adult interaction...other that just going to work. check out my website www.mythirtyone.com/kaylasmith

my cowboy!

just some pics i took and edited

school

Cameron has had a very busy time at school. we have had two field trips already, one to living history day and sea world!!! at living history day he got to see mt. man moses who he said that's not moses that uncle Roy lol then went to park for lunch and play time. at sea world they got to feed dolphins and see shamu...needless to say he has loved school.

First day of school!!!!!!

well today cameron started his first day of school at impact...he was excited on the way to school, but when we got there he was a little nervous. i would be too not knowing anyone and all the parents taking pictures and making a really big deal with it all. after we left all the parents met for the boohoo breakfast where we talked about all the partys and what not. this is going to be a great year!!! praise god!

25!

my morning started with Jon bringing me flowers and a balloon, then we were off to San Antonio for a date. we ate at olive garden and then went to movies. we saw going the distance...very funny movie. then went to my parents for BBQ chicken. Cameron gave me a box with bunch of stuff he put in there for me it was very sweet. all in all it was a great day!

He's a whole hand!!!!!!!!

I can not believe that my lil man is 5 today! Jon and I have been so blessed with Cameron, he is something so special. We decieded a while back that we would just get Cameron one big gift at birthday and christmas, since he gets so much from everyone else. This year we got him a new bike, with a toy story helmet and a bell "so people can hear me coming" he says lol

GOD IS SO GOOD!!!!!!!!!!

GOD is so GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i am always being tested of my faith in god and I'm learning that things are always done on his time and not mine, but for some reason i always tend to freak out and stress then feel like a retard the next day when god pulls through lol...Jon's job didn't work out it was not as safe as it needed to be then the other one we thought he had (well god has done some Devine intervention) , so we have been stressing on where the money is going to be coming from...well unemployment kicked in from his time not working with the city, and he got a call back from another oil company praise god. so he is on his way to kilgore for another interview and were praying this is the job for him. THANK YOU JESUS!!!!!!!!!!1
