5 weeks old.

We went to Central City for Easter last weekend. It was Tyson's first longer trip. It was a good to visit with family. Can't believe Tyson is 5 weeks old already. We have had a busy week, held a Signature Homestyles party on Thursday. Went and got Tyson's pictures taken on Saturday and went to church on Sunday morning with Tyson for the first time.

I've attached a cute picture of Tyson in a T-shirt my sister gave him. Daddy knows alot but Mommy knows everything.

HAPPY EASTER!

Wishing everyone a happy easter.

Tyson had his 2 week check up last Friday. He now weighs 9 lb 6 oz, is 21 inches long.

Tyson and I ventured out to Walmart on Monday, he was very good. At first he didn't like being strapped into his carseat but once I got driving he was out and stayed that way all through the Walmart shopping trip.

Mom came down on Monday afternoon and stayed overnight. She took the first two shifts at night, just want to say Thank You. We also got more stuff hung up on the walls while she was here.

Tyson is staying awake a little more at a time now. He had a big stretch of staying awake on Tuesday, 9:30 am until noon, I think he was waiting for Becky to come see him. Becky brought Runza over for lunch on Tuesday, we finally exchanged our christmas presents, mine is up on the wall already. :0)

Dan's parents are coming down tonight to see us on Thursday. We went out to eat at Honey Creek here in town. Thanks for buying us supper.

I went and visited a new member of the family today. Courtney had a little girl and they are currently in the NICU, Ali is her name. Isn't she precious, so tiny compared to Tyson.

Things are going pretty good.

Dan went back to work this week and so we needed to get used to a little different schedule, it is going pretty good.

I had a doctors appointment to check my blood pressure it was still high so they wanted me to buy a blood pressure cuff to check it at home for a while. It is better at home and therefore don't need to take any meds right now, still need to monitor it.

Tyson is sleeping pretty good 2 1/2 hours at night at a time. He is eating like crazy, where most feedings he will consume 3 oz bottles, sometimes he needs a little more to put him over the edge.

Bath Time

We had our first bath at home. Tyson loves to have his hair washed, the rest of the body is another thing.

We are home.

We had lots of visitors at the hospital. Thanks to everyone stopping by with well wishes and for all the lovely things.

We were released from the hospital on Monday March 16th. Here is a picture of Tyson's first car ride.

We made it through the night, a little sleep deprived due to the cluster feedings that he likes at night but we did make it through, the second night was a little better because we knew what to expect. Here he is sleeping in the bassinet that I used as a baby.

First doctors appointment was today. He is back up and beyond his birth weight. 8 lb 5 oz. No worries of jaundice, he is a pink little one.

Had to include this picture it is so cute. Look at those cheeks and the hat is adorable.

Welcome Tyson Daniel Brokenicky!

Introducing Tyson Daniel Brokenicky. Weighing in at 8 lb 4 oz and 21 inches long. Born March 13th, 2009 6:12 pm.

Contractions started to get regular on Thursday and Friday morning they got closer together. They say to come in when they are 4-5 minutes apart. The nurses hooked me up to the monitors and my blood pressure was through the roof. 180 something over 90 something! Way too high. They monitored me for a while, took blood work, I am not an easy stick and have lots of bruises to prove it. Well because my blood pressure was so high (they called it gestational hypertension) I had a C-section. Best thing to happen, my body and the baby were just ready to deliver and here he is our beautiful baby boy.
