Two Week Stats
Sorry no pictures today, but wanted to give an update! I took Elizabeth in for her two week check up yesterday and she weighs 9 lbs 6 oz. and 21 3/4 inches long! She is a growing, healthy girl! She is sleeping well and just such a joy! Jacob and Hannah continue to be great with her. We are blessed to have three beautiful and healthy children.

Three Kids Under 4 and we are still alive!
Well, our sweet Elizabeth Ann is over a week old now and we are doing great. Of course, Nana (my mom) just left yesterday and DD (Matt's mom) is helping me out today. Tomorrow will be the real test of just mommy and three children under 4! Jacob and Hannah's Mother's Day Out program does not meet tomorrow due to Easter. Thank goodness Daddy has off Good Friday! Next week will be interesting when we try to get back to our schedule, just mommy and the kids. Elizabeth is doing really well sleeping in between feedings at night. Hannah has had a rough week of sleeping due to a molar coming in and a sore on her tongue. We are hoping that big sister will stop waking up 4 times a night soon (only wanting mommy). It is fun to be up with an infant and a toddler at the same time. There was one night when I was up with all three for a while, because Hannah woke Jacob up. Daddy has been a big help, but we try to let him sleep so he can function at work. Here are some pictures of the kids!
Proud New big sister!

INTRODUCING...
Elizabeth Ann Cole!!!
8lbs 7oz
born at 6:28
Mommy and Daddy and baby are doing wonderful and Elizabeth is BEAUTIFUL!!!
Nana made it to the hospital for the delivery and after about 10 or 15 minutes of pushing Elizabeth made her debut!
So here are Elizabeth's first pictures!
Mommy, Daddy, and Dr. Wynne

look at that lip quiver!!!
sweet baby girl!
Mommy and Elizabeth meet for the first time!
Stay tuned for Elizabeth meets big brother and big sister!!!It's Amost Time!
To push! She's fully dilated!! We're waiting about 15 minutes for her to "labor down" - not sure what that means, but will research it later!! - and to hopefully give Nana a little more time to make the delivery! She's in downtown Houston on 45....drive Nana drive!! So about 5:45 she'll start pushing! It won't be long now!!! My guest blogging will soon come to an end!
moving on up....
it's 5:05 and we're at 7 cm!!! By we're I mean Julie...I obviously have very little to do with this!! She has an epidural so she's feeling much better...I've even managed to sneak a few pics!! Keep those prayers coming! Baby girls heartbeat is slow and steady....possibly due to the wonderful classic "support your local sherrif" that she hears playing on the dvd player!! Gotta love James Garner!
Liz...Mystic Pizza is next!!!!
Until next time here are a few pictures for your viewing pleasure!
The new mommy and daddy to be!
We heart Theresa!!!
hanging in there
It's 3:42 and Julie's Labor and Delivery nurse, Theresa (whom we adore by the way), just checked Julie again. She is still 5cm, but is fully effaced adn baby girls head is in a good position. Theresa also had to put in internal monitors to monitor the heart rate and Julies contractions. Little girl, like her big sister, is having a little bit of trouble with a high heart rate. So please pray that baby girl calms down a bit and maintains a lower heart rate so that Julie can go ahead with a natural delivery as opposed to a c-section. Dr. Wynne is on her way over to check in and assess the situation...so until next time!
Auntie Kim!!
no pics this time...sorry, contractions are stronger so mommy is a little less tolerant of guest bloggers big camera in her face!!!!
