Payton Griffith

So our beautiful baby girl is finally here! Tuesday afternoon we went to the hospital because I was having major contractions. We got there about 5pm, had the epidural by 6:30, started pushing at 12:15am, and she was born at 12:44am January 28th! She is a healthy 8lbs 15oz and 21in long. A big girl! I seriously had no idea she was going to be that big. (Especially after my water broke at the hospital and the nurse kept saying there was so much, she couldn't imagine there could still be a baby in there) I am still at the hospital now, but should be going home tomorrow. (thank you wireless internet) I have lots of fun pictures to post so check back for more updates, but you can meet Payton now.....

Well.....

Is she here yet?

NOPE!!!!

(I am fully aware of how horrible I look in this picture, but can you blame me?)



40 weeks and counting. I have removed the pregnancy ticker because the large 0 days was just mocking me. It was rude. I went to my doctors appointment today and I have STILL not progressed any. Apparently she is just happy where she is and has no intention of going anywhere else. On the bright side, they did schedule me to be induced next Monday. There is an end in sight!!!!!

Also, we put our house up for sale. I know, what the crap are we thinking. With home prices and interest rates now we figure we can get something with a lot more room closer to South Jordan, which is what we wanted all along. We aren't in any hurry, so we plan on getting what we want out of our house, and if we don't get any offers high enough, we just won't be moving! Our agent put together an awesome virtual tour you can look at online at utahrealestate.com and our MLS number is 858502.

Such Generosity!!

Last night was my very first baby shower!! It was thrown by some of my mom friends and included my parents ward, my friends from that ward, and some of my family members. There were lots of people there and we got some amazing gifts. I came home and Josh brought everything into the nursery and I just sat in the middle and was just so amazed at how generous everyone was! Our little girl is already so spoiled. Here are some of the highlights of the night:




Leslie took tons of pictures for me. Thanks Les!


Lots of gifts. So spoiled!!



Roman is not going to be okay with sharing his grandma with Payton


This is exactly how I feel and look.



thank you again so much to everyone who was there. I am so blessed to have grown up in a ward and family who is so giving. We are ready for this baby to come!!! (which by-the-way at my last appointment my dr said I am probably going to go over my due date. so that is just awesome)
