Sydney Kriss Rockwood has arrived!

June 17th we arrived at the hospital at 6:30am for the induction. They started me on pitocin at 7am. Nothing happened until the Doctor broke my water. Then I felt like I was dieing. They started strong and only got worse. An hour after they broke my water I was ready to push. I pushed four times and she was out. Very fast, but very painful. She was 6 lbs 9oz 18 1/2 in. She has dark hair which I was excited about. Very healthy and very mellow. She is a great little eater. All the opposite of Robyn.
Robyn on the other hand is sick so she hasn't been able to play with her new sister. There are too many changes in Robyn's life right now I hope she will be okay. So far it's been great. Not much else to say except we are all doing great and I am excited about life with 2. I was scared at first but I think it will be okay. Robyn is a very social girl so I think having a sister around will be fun for her. I am posting the hospital pictures and I hope to be taking some good ones soon.

Website is officially up and running!

We finally got the website up and running. You guys will have to let us know what you think. There are a few things that need adjusting, but if you find anything let us know! www.rockwoodindustriesanddesign.com
We are holding out to buy more furniture so the inventory is small.
Also, after a long wait we are finally putting in our wood floor and Railing. We decided on Walnut. We hope to have it done by July when everyone comes out. I think it will finish off the house so it doesn't look so dated. We are so excited.
By the way I am still pregnant! I have a scheduled induction on the 17th. I am hoping to go natural though. Does anyone know anything about stripping the membranes? I am thinking about having my Dr. do it on Thursday.

Still prego!

So I am happy and annoyed to announce I am still pregnant. I have mixed emotions about it. I know now that if Sydney is born now she will be healthy, as this is when I had Robyn. I am 36 weeks. Not much has changed. I hope she comes soon now!
Okay so no one told me the age between 18 mo. and 2 years was so hard. Knowing that we would have waited a few more months to get pregnant. Maybe it was better not to know now that I think of it. Anyway, Robyn is a pill sometimes. She ignores me and we are having a hard time getting her to sleep by her self in the big girl bed. Anyone have suggestions. Let me just note that she makes herself throw up when she gets really up set. But on the other side of things she is so freakin' cute. She is talking more, still not making a whole lot of sense but it's so fun. And she is learning to help mommy clean and do thing around the house. Some days when I just want to be alone in my room I will go in there and find a collection of her alphabet magnets in my bedding. Then all I can do is smile and laugh. Families are fun aren't they.

34 weeks!

Well, I saw my doc today and I asked if he would check how far I was dilated, because I was having some strong contractions a few nights. So he agreed. I am a 3.....70% effaced. I was a 3 and 80% effaced the day before I had Robyn. So he prescribed me something that will help Sydney's lungs and stuff. I know she will be early but who knows. So I am to take it easy, whatever that means. Okay, I know it means no sex and no lawn mowing, but What can I do. There are so many more things to do before she arrives. I still don't have her space set up. So I am kinda freaking out. The doc estimated that she is a little over 5 lbs. Which I was kinda glad she was not 4 like I Thought. Any way we finally took Maternity pics so here they are. And yes I touched up the stretch marks.

Robyn was chasing and laughing at the peacock.

Cheyenne Mnt. Zoo slide

Colorado Springs Zoo

So we decided to go to the Zoo and we had so much fun. Robyn's face was so funny almost the whole time. The Zoo is in the mountains so I had a hard time walking around, but it is an awesome zoo. Here is a slide show of our trip. I look hugh, you probably can't tell from the picture of me. The maternity pics are still to come. I am thinking about doing them myself.
