Long time comin.....

I have been wanting to do some comparison pictures for a long time now but with going back to work I have had no time at all to blog!! But I am trying desperately to get better at that so that being said... here are pics of libby and marlee at the same ages... see what you all think :)

I think they look similar but the main difference is that Marlee is SO chunky!! haha. She is definitely a big girl with those chubby cheeks!! Either way we have 2 absolutely gorgeous girls!!

Marlee Lynn Jaggers

        I know my baby is almost 3 weeks old but things have been very busy at our house!! We have added another little one, had tons of visitors, gotten use to feeding, getting use to jimmy being back at work and through all this libby has decided she doesn't need a nap anymore!! So better late than never...
       We had a c-section with Libby so this time we did a repeat and scheduled it for April 11th. This day came faster than I could have ever imagined!! To make a long story short I ended up having some complications (not Marlee, just me) so I had to take off work 2 days earlier than I planned, which is a hassle when your booked solid but everyone at my work was wonderful and took care of everything :) God knew what he was doing though because the last couple days of my pregnancy were rough. I felt so much pressure, I couldn't breath no matter what position I was in. It was rough!! But before I knew it.. Wednesday was here!! Libby spent the night on tuesday with jimmys mom so we got to get the house ready and go out to eat just the 2 of us the night before, which was really nice.
      We both said driving to the hospital was the weirdest part!! We got on the elevator and a lady said "when are you due?" and I said said "ummm.. right now" haha. Having it scheduled definitely came with more anxiety!! We walked in and they got us in a room and everything happened SO fast. We were scheduled for surgery at 11:00 and Marlee was born at 11:11!!!
      I will have to say my husband was my rock!! He was so calm and excited at the same time. He acted like such a pro with this one. He videoed and took pictures and took care of me and Marlee. He truly amazed me!! I'm So lucky!!!
      Marlee Lynn Jaggers was born on April 11th, 2012 at 11:11 at Baptist East Hospital. She was..... 9 lbs!!!! And yes that was 10 DAYS EARLY!!! So that explains why I felt So horrible!! She was 20 inches long and just absolutely beautiful!! She never cried in the hospital, we had to wake her up every single time when she had to eat. We never sent her to the nursery at night because she NEVER cried!!
    We were so blessed to have so many visitors. We have such supportive families and pretty much every member of both families came to the hospital and some don't even live here!! A lot of our friends  came and pretty much EVERYONE from my work came to see her. You all do not know how much that meant to jimmy and I, we appreciated it SO much!!
    Well  that sums her birth up as much as I can. We are so in love with Marlee and so excited for the fun adventures to come!! Again thank you to all our family and friends for your constant support through this pregnancy and Marlees birth :)

The Circus

So me being the total child that I am when jimmy asked me what I wanted to do on my birthday I said "the circus"!! So thats exactly what we did. (yes I know my b day was February 11th so I know I am very behind on my blog but being 8 months pregnant has gotten the best of me). Libby had never been to the circus before but she was very excited to go. When we walked in the first thing she saw was the pony rides, they had elephant and camel rides to but daddy would only let her ride the ponies. She was SO excited, she couldn't believe that she was big enough to ride a pony all by herself. Whenever she had to get off she was not happy!! It was socute to hear her talk to the pony like it was hers :)

She really enjoyed the show but her being a typical 3 year old was really only interested in the animal performances. It was really amazing how close we could get to the animals and how smart they were!! She did pretty well during the whole show though.. well once she got her hot dog!!

She even got her face painted which shocked Jimmy and I because she never wants to get her face painted. She looked SO cute but was a little disappointed when we had to clean it off in the bath when we got home for church the next morning :(

We had SO much fun at the Circus and I definintly think it will become a yearly ritual for the next couple years :)

8 days of sickness....

So recently Libby woke up one night at about 5 am throwing up every 30 minutes about 5 times and then she stopped, so we figured she was over it. Well then about 1 day and a half later she started throwing up again one morning, and was sick all day. Then she was ok for 2 more days and then woke up one last morning throwing up!! It ended up being 8 days total and it was not fun!! However it made for some cute pictures because she became very attached to all her stuffed animals during this time of not feeling good. Now it has been 9 days since she has thrown up so hopefully we are over this nasty thing and we didn't give it to any of our friends!!

Marlees Room is DONE!!!

So I know what you have all been waiting for... pics of Marlees room. Today we finally finished it and I couldn't be happier with it!! We decided to do it in monkeys and it has been so much fun looking for all kinds of cute decorations for her room. Libby helped so much and we put her in charge of her room so anytime we got something new she decided where to put it, which sometimes was quit comical!! Well I guess I will let you get to what you really want... the pictures!!

Trying out the crib, of course :)
