Exciting weekend

So it was really only exciting for Saturday night and into Sunday morning. We where driving down a road near our house to the Asian Market :) and we saw that the Drive in theater was open every night of the week now. So we came home and looked it up. We wanted to see the Hunger Games anyways (well I did, Michael enjoyed it too) So we thought lets GO!!

So we packed up our car and headed down.

I decided to take a picture outside of the car since most likely I would get stuck... lol

It was a very fun night!

Before the movie was over I got a text from my sisters boyfriend Solomon saying that Britney was having contractions and was most likely going to have the baby that night. So the rest of the night  we held on to the phone until we recieved word of any changes or news

At about 4:30 our time, 3:30 there time we get a text that she did infact have her baby. at 1:58 am, he was 2lbs 1 oz and 14 1/4 inches long.

He is doing much better then anyone expected, and is simply an amazing little boy. :)

Baby Boyce

My sister and I have always been very close, maybe not really in age but still the best of friends. I was so excited to find out that she was going to be having a baby at the same time as me! We have had fun going back and forth saying what we have learned or about or babies development. So when she texted me yesterday and told me her water broke I was in shock! I knew about how big the baby must be considering she is only 1 week ahead of me. I knew that he would be in the NICU for a long time if she delivers him today. And that it would break everyone’s hearts. Oh how I wish we lived closer so that I could race down to the hospital and see her.

I had to busy myself doing things because I knew it would be awhile before I knew what was going on. Finally I get a call from my mom saying that she was not in Labor and that he was still in her tummy. They where trying to do an ultrasound but she didn’t know much more. I knew that it would be a lot for them to tell everyone what was going on so I just left it as good news and waited. Michael was at school when it happened. I texted him and his reaction was about the same.

After she got settled she got to text me a couple of time and let me know they were ok, his heart rate was good and that even though he was really low she was only dilated to a 2 and she hadn’t had any contractions. They gave the baby steroids to speed up development, and she was on antibiotics. They needed her to hold of on labor for at least 48 hours so they could give him all the steroids to speed up his development as much as possible. And so far so good. :)

She started a blog so that anyone who wanted to could read thier story, and how they were doing.

Instead of writing her story down I thought you could all just read it in her words (she is so much better at writing then I am anyways)

And Please pray for them!
