TYLER JAMES MICHAEL MORRIS






















Well hello Blog world ! It has been almost three weeks but im just now feeling up to writing the details of tylers entrance into the world . On August 5th we celebrated matthews bday by going to chocolate world and spoiling that little boy rotten but hey my baby was turning two , this day was bitter sweet because i just sat back and said yeah my baby is two he is getting so big but at the same time i was sad because he wouldn't be my little baby anymore . I was going to have my little baby tommarow .












August 6 finally 5 in the morning came ( i didn't sleep at all the night before because of contractions and nervs and becuse i was starving).as jack and i drove up to the med center i got a little sad, due to aweful preg and health issues tyler was going to be my final baby. But a little part of me kept saying I will never ever be preg again . Again another bitter sweet moment . We got up to the Labor and Delivery unit and they informed us that there were NO ROOMS and they didn't know when i was going to be able to deliver ( see i was an elective c section so i was at the bottom of the list ) The only way to move up on the list quicker was to go into labor or have my water break . So Jack and I decided we would sit and wait it out . Well we waited and waited and at noon my doctor came in and said he promised that i would not leave the hospital preg however he didn't know when i would get back to a room . Remember im 38 weeks preg and have not eaten since 9 pm the night before i was starving and i was thirsty . which made me a very unhappy uncomfortable preg lady . ( Poor Jack ) He did well though im sure he was saying this is the last time sarah will ever be this hormonal again .






To make a long story short at 5 30 they came back to the waiting room and called my name . I was going back to a room , they still weren't sure when iwould deliver because they had four women at 10 centimeters but at least i was in a bed and was admitted .












At 6 30 they came back and got me ready to go and go Jack all suited up incase i was able to have the spinal then he could be there .












It took 45 long painful minutes to get that spinal in and i kept saying just put me to sleep put me to sleep , due to my accident in 2000 my back was not cooperating so it took forever but let me tell you once that spinal was in it wa sin and it felt great . Jack came in and sat at my head but all i wanted to do was go to sleep . All we had to do now was wait . They had to use the vaccum on Tyler because he had his head stuck between my pelvic and hip bone . ( I didn't find this out til after wards but that would explain all the pressure that i was feeling . They then asked me one more time if i wanted to have my tubes tied i said yes and they did that . stapled me up put me in recovery .












The OR nurse said you have a huge fan club out in the hall waiting for you . and sure enough there were family and friends , I was soooo tired and soooo hungry and sooooo out of it i really just wanted to see my baby and go to sleep .












Oh back up sorry , when tyler came out i was really excited to hear how much he weighed . On the ultra sound he was measuring at about 7.5 lbs . so I said how much does he weigh and they said 6lbs 8 oz i said what are you sure you don't have that backwards . and here they brought me this tiny tiny tiny baby . But oh i was in love .












He was healthy and sweet and mine . Finally he was here and life was good . The whole process is amazing how it works . You have this person in side of you for 9 months and then he or she is out and yours and your responsibility . But the love and bond is instant .












While in the hospital i noticed that i felt clueless . Going from toddler to new born was wierd . I can not imagine how people go from older children to new born . I remember tyler starting to get fussy and i was thinking why od'tyou just go get a snack or get a drink . Oh wait you are completely helpless and i need to provide you those things .












We came home Sunday morning . My recovery was wonderful the best i have had . My insicion has opend up again like last time but not as bad .
Now it is just figuring out how to juggle three kids and getting back into a routine . Really the getting abck into a routine is the hardest thing . we are a crazy unorganized house right now but that is ok right ?

The time is Near

Hello Everyone. This is Jack. Just a little Update on our status.

Sarah went in to see the Doctors to get a Amnio. The immediate results were negative. Sarah got a message on the machine last night that said "Hello Sarah, We see your scheduled for a C-section on Thursday, do you still want to keep Matthew's appointment on Friday or re-schedule."
Was Heavenly Father trying to tell us something? Anyway, Sarah got worked up and called L&D and talked to the resident that was working with her. She said she could not believe they didn't schedule her since she was only off by 1/2 a point. She told Sarah not to eat anything after midnight because she was going to try and pull some strings and get her scheduled for today. Can anyone say "Ping Pong"? So Sarah calls me at work and tells me to get her a double cheeseburger on my way home. They tell my Wife who eats a bowl of Cereal every night at 3:30 not to eat anything after midnight. Well the Resident nurse who was in the Amnio called at 8:00 and Told Sarah "We told you yesterday, You are not having this baby until Saturday at the earliest, You are scheduled for an Ultrasound on Friday. That is it." Needless to say this upset Sarah who slept in discomfort all night. She has been contracting ever since the Amnio. Well I woke up and she was on the phone with her Doctor's office. They told her they would call her back. AT about 10:00 they called and all I her Sarah say was "That would be So Wonderful, Thank You." and she was crying. I asked what they said and she said they scheduled her for a C-section at 6:00 a.m. tomorrow 8-6-09. Tell me Heavenly Father does not have a plan for us. It was not just a coincidence that the Pediatrician called and said you are scheduled for a section on Thursday. That still small voice was speaking saying "Prepare Sarah, Tyler is coming on this day and you need to be ready." Thank You Heavenly Father. Thank You for making my wife happy again. Thank you for seeing us through this difficult pregnancy. Thank you for giving me this wonderful family and this tremendous wife. Thank you for my children who just went through a rough nine months. Thank you for our friends and Sarah's Family who have continued to help us through this time. Thank you to everyone who has contributed to ensuring that my wife was taken care of during this pregnancy. Thank you to all.

Love Jack Lee
