Well, I am definitely horrible for not posting anything in the month of November but I have a great post today.

Boston has been such a perfect angel and definitely my easiest baby by far.  A little info on the birth story...  So after a recent false alarm I was quite hesitant to go in to the hospital and have them send me home again especially since I was dilated 4 cm and 90% effaced but after a couple hours of non stop contractions and some serious back pain I finally woke Jeramey and told him it was time to take the girls to my parents.  We got to the hospital around 2:30 am Sunday morning and was relieved to be told that I was now 5+ cm dilated and that today was the day we were having the baby.  Jeramey was so proud of himself as he had guessed about a week earlier that she would come on the 28th.  Since I was just 36wks 1day I hadn't had my Group B Strep test done yet so they gave me 4 hrs worth of penicillin as a precaution.  At 9am the doctor came in and broke my water, which I was very happy about as I had had my epidural since about 5am.   And at 11:19 am Boston Jade entered the world.  

We are just loving every minute with her.  Brooklynn and Brynlee are such good little helpers and truly enjoying be so "grown up."  I am pumping this time which has been a bit of an adventure but seems to be doing the trick with preventing the horrible colic that Brooklynn and Brynlee had.  She is sleeping between 3 and 4 hours at night which has been a great relief.  She has been a bit jaundice so we're still having to go get her levels checked everyday but they've stopped climbing drastically and will hopefully start to decline now.  

Thank you so much to all our family and friends who have been so helpful and kind bringing us dinners and helping me stay on top of the older girls schedules.  We really are so blessed to have such wonderful people in our lives.
