Grrrrr I HAVE A SICK BABY!!!

So my poor little man is sick, and I am really mad about it! I have been so careful! I hardly ever leave the house for one thing, and when we have and gone somewhere public he has been in his carseat covered up and sleeping the whole time. And for the record I can count on one hand the how many public places I have been since he has been born (and that's a month now). I don't even go to my mom's house (and for anyone that knows me that is BIG) because some of my nieces and nephews have been sick and been there. I have never been more paranoid with any of my babies and he's the one that gets sick. I've just decided that, if I have a say in the matter that is, in the future we will stick to the later spring/summer babies :) And it's not about me, even though I have a serious case of cabin fever, I feel so bad for Gunner he's too little to be sick :( He most likely has RSV. He didn't actually get tested for it because it doesn't really matter at this point the treatment is the same. Deep nasal suction at the hospital twice a day or more if he needs it. And even though its kind of a pain I'm really glad that they do that now because it keeps a lot a babies from having to be admitted to pediatrics. Gunner totally hates is every time we go but it's worth it because he can eat and sleep better afterwards. I know I'm not the only one having to do this right now because it's going around like crazy. So hopefully all of our little ones will get better soon and it will warm up so we can get out of the stinkin house!

The Big Sister

I thought I would give you all an Auni update. She is doing really well as a (little) big sister, she loves the bebe, as she calls him, and loves to touch his hair and say "soft". On the other hand though she is a maniac. I've had a lot of people tell me that I'm lucky to have a boy and girl together and not 2 boys. But I can't for the life of me figure out what the difference would be at this point. I know as she gets older there will be but right now she does everything just as bad if not worse than Deegan did. She is a lot more brave than he was and more tough as well. She takes his toys away and hits him and he's the one who comes crying to me. Her favorite thing to do right now is climb on anything and everything. We have to keep our bar stools up on the counter, and our dining chairs bungee corded together so she can't pull them out.

I don't know if you can see in this picture but she has a fat lip on top from a little accident involving her doll stroller and Deegan. (he was pushing her around in it and clipped the edge of the couch and she flew out)
Her doing her favorite thing. It was really funny because after I took this picture, which she smiled and said cheese for, she put her hand out and said "I ya see". She wanted to see her picture.

This is the face of "I know I'm not suppose to be up here".

My Little Man is 2 Weeks Old

These aren't the best pictures because they are from my phone but I like them the best of what I have right now. Gunner had his 2 week appointment today, he weighed 8lbs 10oz, and was 21 1/4 in long. So he was in the 75 percentile for his height and 50 for his weight. It's always a relief to me to find out they are growing well when you are nursing. He has been such a good baby, and that has been a serious answer to prayers for me. We love him so much and couldn't be happier to have him here :)

Gunner Lynn Fackrell

He's here! I went in Wednesday morning bright and early for my induction. This is a picture of the "largeness" before I got all gowned up. Pay no attention to my awesome regrowth in all these pictures my hair gets really dark while I'm pregnant then goes back to normal afterwards, and I didn't have enough time to get it done before :)

He was born at 3:37 pm, my labor went really well. I get a little emotional when our babies arrive, for me it's one of the times I feel the closest to our Father in Heaven.
8lbs 6.6oz, but they round up so he is 8.7 on record, and 21 inches long
Dr. Jones has delivered all three of my babies now and this is the first picture I've gotten with him after the delivery. He is so great, Clint and I both love him. I would die if I had to go to someone else. (those of you who have had him and had to go elsewhere you know what I mean)

Look at his wrinkly little neck :)

Gunner and his cute little cousin Cambree, she is 4 weeks older and they are pretty much the same size.

Gunner and Daddy, and if you haven't noticed Gunner totally has Clint's chin.

First bath, thank you Ellen!

Deeg Holding his baby brother for the first time. Auni was really cute with him too but couldn't resist all the buttons so we didn't get a picture with her.

Right before we went home. I look like a chubby pants in this pic!

Ready to go!

We are so happy to have him here healthy and well. He is officially our smallest baby yet, Dr Jones and I agreed that this is a good size for me :) And I just wanted to say thanks to everyone who helped me out these past few days, for all the calls and texts to check on us. Thank you Maranda for everything on Wed. She had my kids all day, took them to McDonalds for lunch, then brought Cafe Rio for dinner, and the kids to see there new brother. And on top of everything else made cookies and left them at my house! She is amazing, thank you so much! We'll keep you all posted on our crazy life with three kids 3 and under! Those of you who have done this let me know how you kept your sanity :) HaHa we love our kids and really we'll be great, we just won't be going anywhere for a while.

New Years and My LAST Dr.s Appointment!!!

We spent New Years at the cabin, as is our tradition. And besides the fact that sleep was not something that wanted cooperate with me, it was really fun. The kids got to play in the snow and go on snowmobile rides with their dad, and just hang out with their cousins.

Auni loved being pulled around in the sled, and I love her in her snow clothes I think she is too cute. (but then again I am her mother)
And I know you can't tell who is in this picture but we had glowies on New Years Eve and Deegan, Jexton, and Dalton took theirs in the tub while they had their baths. They thought it was awesome :)

Deeg did NOT want to get off the snowmobile, and was quite offended when he wasn't included on the "big boy's ride".

This picture isn't actually from the cabin, it was at my mom's house the other day when I was finishing the blanket that I made for the baby. She has officially out grown sleeping in the pack n play seeing as she can now climb out of it. So she didn't get her normal nap and she was so exhausted that she fell asleep on the couch (she never does that). As for the Baby update I had my 39 wk appt Tues and all is well. I am dilated to a 2 (which I have to remind you has never happened to me without the assistance of pitocin) and about 75% effaced. I still think I'll make it to my induction on Wed, but I am happy that my body seems to be more ready, Especially since we changed my dates :) So my next post will probably be baby pictures. We're just hoping and praying that all goes well.
