Grandparents

Landon has now met all of his grandparents, aunts and one of his uncles. Hopefully he will get to meet Uncle Adam and Jon this month.

My parents came down for my birthday and to see there first grandson. It was really wonderful having them here for the day. We mostly hung out around the house since Landon was still only 6 days old. We did go out to eat for lunch at Saigon Legend, little Vietnamese place on University Ave and one of my favorite restaurants. Landon was perfect. He slept the whole time. Grandpa and Grandma Gorman bought Landon the BumGenius cloth diapers so he is will be set on diapers with those and all the disposable ones our friends gave us. Grandpa and Grandma Gorman love their grandson and he loves them. I am glad they are both around for him to enjoy.

Josh’s parents and brother and sister came down this last weekend to meet Landon. They helped us finish up at our rented house and hang out around here. Saturday night we went out for dinner. Landon did great again. He woke up but didn’t cry and with a little rocking of his car seat went back to sleep. We went to Joe’s place another one of my favorite restaurants. They have the BEST salad bar! We also went to church this past Sunday. Landon got lots of love from everyone. He is such a cuddly baby I know he loved everyone holding him. Grandpa and Grandma Williams bought us a glider while they were here. I think Josh enjoys it more than anyone else. Grandpa and Grandma Williams and the rest of the Williams were very happy to get to love on their grandson/nephew. He loved being loved on by them.

It was Landon’s first time at church. He got to meet lots of new people. He did really well. He only cried once when he was hungry. Unfortunately it was during the quietest time at church, during communion. Oh well, he’s a baby and they only go on their schedule.

What a lucky little guy to have both sets of grandparents alive. In the coming months, Landon will get to meet his Great Grandpa and Grandma Monks, Great Grandma Williams, Great Grandma Gorman, and 3 of his Great Great Great aunts! Wow, he has all kinda of greats living still. Lucky guy!!

My Little Man

This has been a week of new experiences, hard word, amazing happiness, and a few tears. I love being a mom. I love the way Landon looks into my eyes and needs me so much. I never knew I could be so happy to hear a little burp or fart or see a poopy diaper.

Good times- Landon has been able to meet lots of our friends and has been in a good mood for just about all of them. Landon has met one of his aunts, Jessica, and one set of his grandparents, Grandma and Grandpa Gorman. Landon was slightly jaundice after the second day being born and after lots of sun through the windows and 5 minute sunbaths a couple times day outside, it is now gone. Landon is nursing VERY well, sometimes it seems like that is all he does. Landon has slept 3-4 hours at a time on 3 nights! Landon made his Mommy very proud. On my birthday we went out to lunch at one of our favorite restaurants, a little Vietnamese place on University Ave. Landon did great! Wednesday, Little Man and I went to the store to pick up a few things. He slept the whole time and got lots of complements on how cute and little he is. Landon likes it when I sing the alphabet song to him and count to 10.

Tough times- Friday was a tough day, Landon was very fussy, my milk came in and he had difficulty feeding, his jaundice was the worst this day and he didn’t poop. Unfortunately, my Landon does not seem to like getting a bath. Boy did he scream. Daddy turned on some oldies and we tried dancing and singing him through the bath. Maybe, hopefully he will start to like baths. Landon also does not enjoy his diaper being changed, although he seems to realize it helps with the uncomfortable feeling of a dirty diaper and is getting better. There have been a few nights that Landon gets up every hour to hour and half to feed. So even though we have had some tough times we are getting through them and many of them are getting better even in the week he has been alive.

Overall we have a happy, healthy baby boy who Josh and I love more than anything.

Here are some pictures of his first week.

Landon Bradford Williams

Its a Boy!!!!!!!!!

Landon was born on Tuesday, Sept 16th at 1:57am. He was 6 lbs 11 oz and 20.5 inches long.

Mommy Krystle was induced Monday at 3:45 pm. I did it with no pain meds and a lot of help and support from my wonderful husband, Josh and a lot of prayer.


Sorry for taking so long we just moved in to our new house (we are now homeoweners and parents!!!!!) and have had difficulties getting the internet working.

At the Hospital

Hey everyone. This is Krystle's friend Katie writing to tell you that Krystle is being induced this afternoon. Josh called around 2:00 to say that after her appointment this morning Dr. M decided to keep Krystle and induce her. Her blood pressure was still high and she had protein in her urine so they felt this was the best plan for her and baby. Krystle and Josh are both doing well. Looks like baby Williams may actually be born on his/her due date!

Praying hard!

Could you guys please pray that I go into labor this weekend? I am so uncomfortable! Also I had my dr appointment today and Dr is a slightly bit worried I think. My blood pressure is 142 over 92 and I had +1 protein in my urine. If I don't go into labor I have my next appt on Monday morning. He does not want to wait a week. I can do things around the house but I am not allowed to leave the house unless it is to the hospital. I am 1 cm dilated and he agitated my cervix to try to keep the it going. I have to go to the hospital right away if I have a pain in my upper right hand side of my stomach. Baby is still moving around a lot which is good. He thinks baby will be 7lbs 4-5 oz. We will keep you updated if I go into labor.


P.S. we stayed at our new house last night!! We are almost all moved over just have a lot of unpacking. Dr said I can keep unpacking, just take it slowly.
