Happy Thanksgiving

Bennett got dressed for his very first Husker game. Mommy and Daddy went to the game and Bennett stayed at home with Grandma, Grandpa and Aunt Jenna. It was hard to leave the little guy even for a short period, but we had tickets and didn't want them to go to waste. It was good to get out, but I missed my little man like crazy!!! Thanksgiving was great and Bennett got to meet all kinds of people and was the life of the party. Even if he did sleep the whole time. Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving!!!

Nothing really new with our family. Hope all is well with everyone else. Just wanted to post some new pictures of our handsome boy.

Getting Big already

Everyone keeps saying to enjoy every moment because they grow up so fast and I can already see that happening. Although I am in a bit of a time warp I look at pictures of him today compared to the hospital and he is changing. Bennett is doing REALLY well overall and sleeps pretty much for 3-4 hours at a time throughout the entire day and last night slept 5 hours at night. He is eating really well and sleeping well too. Wake time varies, but he seems to have more wake time every day which I LOVE. Daddy and Grandma Boege have been home with us so that's helping immensely. Bennett has had many visitors at the hospital and at home too so thanks to all of you who have visited him. Please enjoy some of our new pictures of our baby boy!!

Bennett Jeffrey Starmer

He's Here!!!! Our baby boy was born 11/13/08 at 9:43 a.m. (my due date). My water broke at 9:30 p.m. on 11/12. I was in labor for 12+ hours where 3.5 of it I was pushing. Bennett's position was transverse meaning his head was not facing the correct direction to deliver him. We had to work very hard to re-position him to come naturally. All the hard work was well worth it after I got to see his beautiful face for the fist time. We are very excited and blessed to have him in our lives. We are all going home tomorrow and looking forward to beginning our new lives at home. Here a a few pictures with many many more to come.

Belly bump days are numbered

Hello Everyone. As tomorrow approaches I have serious doubts that baby Starmer is going to come into the world without a little help. I have a scheduled inducement on Tuesday 11/18/08 at 6:00 a.m. He still may decided to come on his own but in case he doesn't we know that he will be here next Tuesday (if all goes well). Part of me is hoping he's here before that and the other (planner) part of me is glad to have something scheduled. Either way he will be here VERY soon and I am excited, scared, nervous, anxious you name it I'm feeling it.

Aren't you done yet??

We'll I'm still pregnant, but I need to keep reminding myself that I haven't gotten to my due date quite yet so I need to be patient. It's just so hard to focus on anything else at this point other than when is he going to be here, where am I going to be, will there be enough time to GET THE DRUGS??? My next Dr's appt is Tuesday and if the baby is still not here they will schedule me to be induced the following week. Good news is that I can see the end, but still don't know when the end exactly is. Soon enough I will know and then the waiting game will be over and a whole new chapter will begin. I am looking forward to that new chapter that I have been waiting what feels like an eternity for!
