Seriously???

YES, this picture is exactly what you think it is!!! What am I going to do with this kid?? (sorry about the quality, it was taken with my phone)

I should have known I was in trouble when, Whenever I was feeding Knox he would instantly get really interested and say "Ok mommy my try, my try mommy." (meaning his turn) While lifting his shirt up!

So When I caught him really trying it out on a baby doll that his grandma gave him (to help him adjust) I really wasn't surprised!!

And you gotta love how he thinks its done with the Belly Button!!!!

FAMILY FUN!

Fun at the Carnival!

Daddy and Hoge Testing out their streangth!

This past weekend we took Holden to his first carnival! I usually hate these things and think they are a little nasty, but we figured he would love it, and he absolutely did!!! It was so cute! I think the moment he saw he was going to get to drive a real train he was in haven! It was also Knox's first real outing to. I did not want to take him, but there is only so long a little two year old boy can be stuck in the house, so we all went out and it was a lot of fun.

I just had to add this picture because he is just a little sweet heart!! I am his mommy and so i see him at his worst, and I kid you not, he is SOOOOO Sweet!! ah Love him!

one week!

Knox is 1 week old!!!! And we just love him!

Holden finally got to meet knox. My parents brought him back Friday night. He is SOOOO good with him, so many hugs and kisses, which is a relief. My parents left which was sad, but my wonderful mother in law is coming to the rescue tomorrow, Holden cant wait to see grandma Debbie!
Knox is such a good baby. He sleeps so good, and already has a schedule. He eats good to and also takes a bottle well. He hates getting his diaper changed. He is so calm. He loves to hear Holdens voice and follows him everywhere with his eyes, and he of course loves his mommy ;)

Today we were all on the bed, and were changing his diaper , I turned my head for a minute when I got sprayed in the face! Rye reaches over to help and gets sprayed in his face and then Knox (who is freaking out) turns to his side and hits Holden all down his chest and legs! We were all screaming and laughing, but Holden was DEVASTATED! he just cried and cried and couldn't figure out why Knox would do that to him! it was funny!

I am doing good. It really is a sad deal what your left with after you have a baby (Besides the beautiful baby part) Your left with 38 extra pounds to lose and major mood swings! But I am so happy not to be pregnant any more! So I will deal with it, he is so very worth it. It sure is nice being able to shave my legs, and also see past my belly button, you really start wondering what is going on down there!
Any way here are some recent pictures.
(check out that kids chicken legs!)

WE DID IT!

7 pounds 13 oz- Born Sunday May 2nd and 10:30 pm
Knox Lister Fitzwater!!! So, He is finally here after all the stress, pain, and other good things, we have our little Knox, and he was SOOOOOO worth it! I swear he is such an angel baby. Well, I figure I have gotta tell the birth story and the house is quite, baby is asleep, Holden is states away, Rye is at the gym, and I have some Portia time=)

SUNDAY- We wake up and decide were heading to the hospital we wanted this kid out. I felt like it had to be almost time, but my Dr doesn't believe in checking so I really had no clue. So we leave and get about two miles from home and the car breaks down....ya, my new nice car...lovely =( So,Rye says it's out of gas, your gage was stuck, lets push it to a service station. I, Being the psycho that I am (hormones) start crying and refuse to get out, haha!!! (it's so embarrassing when I look back) I say no, I am just sitting here...So I finally realize I am crazy after rye tries to Reason with me, and we push it to a service station while all the lovely people watch us and don't ask to help. Long story short we end up walking all the way home through a ghetto trailer park....And honestly it was kinda fun! I swear my husband is the best man in the world!

So, we get that taken care of and figure it must be a sign not to go, but we go anyway, haha. So we go in and they say why are you here, and i say I feel like I could be in labor (lie) and so they check me and.......FREAK, I AM NOT EVEN DILATED, COMPLETELY SHUT!!! I wanted to die. But then all heck broke loose. I would have rather not been dilated and sent home for what we had to face next.......

His heart was very irregular, I cried when I herd it......The cord was tightly wrapped around his neck, he had a bowel movement and was stressed so they were worried he had swallowed some already, my platelets were barely hanging in there...I swear there was a never ending list of problems. So, I signed the emergency c-section papers just in case it came to that, and they called in all the specialists, broke my water, unnaturally dilated me completely in less then a hour and a half! and he just popped out!!! He literally just popped out, the Dr was in shock, they thought i was maybe a two-three when they went to check me, but there was a head! long story short, no c-section, and no problems at all!!! He was beautiful, his heart was fine, my fluids were clean, and besides some placenta problems it was perfect! .......just terrifying!!!

I just feel so blessed....I swear I am the luckiest girl ever, and I always wonder why?? I am so thankful for the power of the priesthood, and the man that my husband is. You wonder how you could ever love anybody more then you already do. I will never forget seeing his face the first time he looked up at Knox...... I love my husband and family so much.
Knox is such a great baby! i will update with a post all about him! When i get some more time! Thank you all so much!!!!
