Sweet Esme

Just a little update on Esme.....We went to the doctor's on Tuesday of this week, and it turn out that Esme has an upper respitory infection. She is taking amoxicillin and I think it is working. She is still having a hard time breathing sometimes because of the congestion, but I think it is on its way out. We also found out that she has a pretty bad case of apnea. She stops breathing quite often, even when she is awake, causing her lips to turn blue and me to panic!!!! We have a therapist coming to the house today to show me how to use the apnea monitor. Esme also had an upper GI on Wed. and thankfully that came back normal. Please pray for Esme and us as well. Thanks =)

4 weeks later...

I has been almost 4 weeks since Esme was born and things are going GREAT! She is such a blessing to our family. We brought her to church with us for the first time yesterday and she slept the whole time. Aydan got to play in the nursery and cried when it was time to leave. Aydan is such a great big brother. Esme is starting to stay awake for longer periods of time, and is tracking objects with her eyes. Her eyes are starting to turn green and she still has all of her beautiful dark hair! =) She is a great sleeper. I can lay her down awake and she falls asleep on her own (most of the time). last week we finally got the rest of our grass and next week we are getting a fence! Aydan is going to have so much fun this summer! Jason has an awesome garden growing in the backyard! I can't wait for peapods!

This past week....

This past week Jason, Aydan, Esme and I have been doing a lot of adjusting!!! Things seems to be going very well. Aydan is having a little bit of a hard time dealing with the attention division....but besides that he is doing great. He loves his little sister so much and gives her millions of kisses! If she cries he tells her "It's ok baby girl" and rubs her tummy or arm. He is a great big brother. Esme is eating well, and gaining weight. She sleeps a lot during the day, and then not so much at night. It gives Esme and I a chance to get to know each other without interruption =) Jason loves the time he gets to spend with is little girl when I am putting Aydan to bed! Aydan and Daddy have been playing alot outside! We are very blessed to have this family! We have had so much fun this past week, we can only look forward to the weeks and years to come! =) God is good!

Esme is here!!!!!!

Esme Frances Johnson was born at 3:11pm on Tuesday, April 15th! She weighed 7lbs 6oz and 20 inches long. She has a full head of dark hair and makes the cutest little faces. Aydan LOVES being a big brother and always talks to her and kisses her. Esme loves to sleep during the day and stay awake during the night. hopefully this will change soon! =) Thanks again for all of the love and support and most importantly your prayers. Jason and I appreciate it so much. We are so excited to share this beautiful little miracle with the world!

Waiting for baby Esme...

I will be getting induced on Tuesday April 15th at 6:30 am. Jason and I will soon be blessed with our second miracle. We are so excited to be bringing a little girl into the family. Aydan is also very excited and talks to my stomach every day! He can't wait to hold her and to play cars with her! We will keep you all updated! Thanks for all the thoughts and prayers!
