Our Move, and Family Update!

So I was planning on doing an update when he was a month old,

but when the third week came around,

we got the call from Dome, 

and headed out to..

MERIDIAN, MISSISSIPPI!

 But..
Lets not get ahead of ourselves here..

So.. Since the last update,

We were just getting used to the life of being parents. 

Doing the normal parent thing,

Taking tons of pictures, 

cuddling..

Oh.. and sleeping WHENEVER we got the chance ;)

Fielding returned to work after a couple days,

So it was just Kruz and I,

and well.. 

Lets just say I think I have more than enough pictures of the little man.

IM JUST A LITTLE  OBSESSED! ;)

So.. 

Then there was Thanksgiving on the lads two week mark..

and we went up to Rexburg, Idaho

and visited with Fieldings family.

and then we headed to Rigby, Idaho,

and visited my family. 

I for some reason only have pictures of Fieldings family..

but here they are :)

4 generation picture! :)

Fieldings Grandma Nan, Fielding, Kruz, and Fieldings mom Charly

 Dont I look awesome ;)

haha.

Not a fan of this picture,

but its the memories that count.. 

right?

So.. After all of that fun stuff,

and TONS of food..

Fielding decided he would put the tree up all by himself..

and it turned into..

THIS!

I dont think he ever learned to spread out the ornaments ;) 

So I finally fixed it..

and it seems like right after I did..

We got the call that we were needed in Mississippi ASAP!

So,

we got the call on Tuesday,

and on Wednesday we were all packed up,
had a fast baby blessing for our little man,
and he had the cutest white tux,
Thanks to Fieldings grandma nan :)

Then we went to Rigby and slept at my parents,

and then were planning on leaving on Thursday early early morning..
Well. We ran into some problems..

Remember that sexy fj cruiser
I posted about in November
that we bought a couple days before Kruz was born..
Well.. We didn't think uhaul would not have a trailer big enough to tow it..
So..
We had to go buy one from a dealership..

(Kruz and I watched from the window :) )

and by the time we got it bought, registered, and the fj strapped down..
It was about 5pm.
So we were just going to sleep,
and leave early early
Friday morning..
But..
The weather wouldn't cooperate and there was a big storm coming..
So Fielding went and took a nap,
and we ate dinner,
and were on the road by 7 pm.

So.. We got through some of the mountains,
and got to Green River, Wyoming.
and decided we were ahead enough of the storm,
so we stopped and got a hotel.
Now listen.. If you ever are driving through Wyoming and need to stop,
Green River has a very nice hotel,
and it was only like $70 a night..
We were pleased with that price of course :)

Anyways..
So that morning we had a nice grand breakfast at the hotel,
and hit the road again..
We drove about 15-16 hours,
and then decided it was time to stop and let the little man out and stretch.
Because the day we left, it was his 3 week birthday,
and I wasn't for bringing him into public that young.
Especially because it is cold and flu season.

So anyways..
We stopped in
McPherson, Kansas
and found another great hotel
for $90.
:)
I was so happy with our hotel deals,
because I was only wanting to stay in the top of the line hotels
because I knew they would be the cleanest for my lil man.


(This was on the last day of the trip.. After we were 18 hours in :)  He's still happy! )

So after getting some much needed rest,
we got back on the road again..
drove for another 15-16 hours,
and got here :)
It was so nice finally being here,
and letting Kruz finally stretch
and not have to have him in the carseat for awhile :)

Anyways,
We got here on a Saturday night
at like 10 pm.
and then,
we only unpacked a few things and Fielding ran to Walmart to get us a nice air mattress
because our furniture wasn't going to be delivered until Monday.
(Dome wasn't expecting us to be down here that soon) ;)
and then we went to sleep.
WE WERE BEAT! 



Sunday, We unpacked our cars
and started to get settled in our new home.



This is a view from our balcony of Great 'ol Mississippi.)

Fielding went to work right away,
So I was left to unpack,
get settled,
take care of Kruz,
find us new doctors,
 (since we haven't had our 6 week check ups yet)
 run arrands,
and lets just say a lot more things.. haha.

Im am not complaining at all,
I enjoy keeping busy,
but thats one reason why you guys are finally getting the update ;)

After a couple days,
Nothing was really left to do..
So..
I had plenty of cuddle time with my boy :)

(as you can tell in the picture, I didn't get much sleep since we got the call to pack up and leave)

..and our lives are finally getting back to normal..

... and then we celebrated Kruz being a MONTH old! 

I am not going to lie.. 

I did cry a little.

He is getting SO BIG!

I know he looks bald in all his pictures, 

but he really does have hair..

and this next picture proves it..

He is just a toe head like his daddy. :) 

So a couple days ago,
I finally got my Christmas shopping done for Kruz, and Fielding.
and I had time on Sunday to wrap all of them while Fielding was home to watch Kruz..
and now..
My tree looks like its almost Christmas.. :)
(Fielding decorated the tree again, but must of learned when I taught him when I fixed the other)
haha.

You like our ORANGE walls :)
I kinda am loving it.


and Last night,
was our 2 year anniversary..
Fielding went to work in the morning,
and then surprised me by coming home early,
bringing me these..

So my little family went out to chilis,
and did a little bit more of the Christmas shopping..
and then..
we finally had time to take a picture by our tree :)
This is like the only one that turned out..



The others were like this..

Haha.
MERRY CHRISTMAS!
-The Davis Family

Kruz's Newborn Photo Shoot

AHHH! 

I'm so behind.. 

So I guess just update one post at a time..

So, right now I am going to do what I promised you guys in the last update..

NEWBORN PHOTOS! 

:)

There are so many pictures, 

So I think I will just post a few here and there :) 

BEWARE: These are too cute to handle!

GOSH DANG IT! 

I adore him! 

:)

 

Kruz is HERE!

I know.. I am a week late..

but I have been overly enjoying my little man. :)

He's PERFECT!

Kruz Fielding Davis

 was born on November 8th at 2:45 pm. 

8 pounds 10 ounces..

BIG BOY!

Okay so the above picture is when they were cleaning him off,

he looks extremely large. 

He was just swollen :) 

So here' s the story..

We were supposed to get induced on Tuesday, 

but on Monday our doctor said no way.. 

and we were pretty upset 

so Fielding found an excuse on how he needed a new truck..

so monday we spent in a dealership..

Yes, Fielding traded in his baby..

the 2010 Toyota Tundra,

for a 2008 Dodge Cummins Mega Cab. 

and then he went and bought new rims and got it rinalined,

 and we still have to put tint on it..

but this is what it looks like with the new rims and tires.. 

yeah.. Can you say MID BABY CRISIS? 

haha. I wouldn't say that yet..

because most of you know I was driving a 2011 Scion TC.

It was an awesome car but just small seeing how it was a two door. 

So.. On Tuesday we spent in another dealership and got me... 

 a Toyota FJ cruiser.

I used to think they were the ugliest car in the world, 

but it has totally grown on me, and Kruz has so much room in the backseat :) 

ahhh.. Im in love with my new car.. 

So it was definitely a mid baby crisis ;) 

 So with our new cars.. 

We spent Wednesday registering them, and insuring them...

So with those 3 busy days full of walking.. 

and being two weeks over due.. 

We went to bed,

and at 5:30am  I woke up for a normal bathroom break.

After I went to the bathroom I felt so nauseous.

I felt like something wasn't right..

Then I didn't feel Kruz move for awhile. 

So I called Labor and Delivery to see if I could come in 

and just check his heartbeat to see if he was still okay.

I wasn't planning on meeting my son that day.. 

We walked in..

I had the worst nerves in the world, 

wondering if he was okay.

They walked me into the room 

and hooked me up to monitors.

It showed that I was having contractions every 3-5 minutes,

and his heartbeat was PERFECT :) 

After that, they said they were going to admit me. 

I was like.. YAY!

So.. 

We were ready to get the party started..

and then I felt bad for being so mad about not being induced on Tuesday..

because my body was doing it all by itself on Thursday :) 

All I had to do was wait a couple more days and BAM! 

:) So I wasn't feeling any of my contractions,

and then the doctor came in to break my water..

and BAM! It hurt.

So when he came to break my water, 

I was dilated to a 3.

Then..

two and a half hours later

I was at an 8.

Dying in pain.. 

and then they finally decided it was time I could get my epidural. 

After getting that, 

It was lollipops and rainbows.

About a half an hour later I was ready to push. :)

My whole labor was 7 hours :) 

PERFECT FOR A FIRST LABOR..

So.. 

The nurse kept saying over and over 

"man.. your the only girl I know that is talking and laughing inbetween pushing.."

but what could I say..

I knew I was going to meet the most amazing boy that day..

a boy that would change my life forever..

10 minutes of pushing.. 

I heard the sweetest  little cry,

and had the most handsome human being on my stomach looking at me with his big eyes..

I of course let Fielding hold him first. :) 

and then my sister Chauncey,

(who was in the room experiencing it all with me.. ;) )

and then my step dad Danny..

and then of course.. 

IT WAS MY TURN :) 

since I wasn't able to hold him 

while they were fixing me up. 

I knew I loved him, but seeing him for the first time.. 

made it all real, 

and I can tell you right now..

I never thought I could love someone so much..

he is absolutely amazing!

So after about an hour, 

I was ready to change rooms. 

While changing rooms,

I was ready to faint..

Then they realized,

my IV stopped working..

So.. 

They had to start it up again..

and OUCH! 

That hurt.

While I was getting moved into a new room,

Fielding was with the nurses and Kruz giving him his first bath.. 

After I got in my new room, 

they brought me this nasty chicken dinner thing..

yeah right.. I wasn't going to eat that,

and I was glad that I didn't have an appetite.

 I of course wanted my baby boy back from the nursery.

Finally.. 

They brought him back to me.. 

All clean, and said all his vitals were PERFECT!

It blows me away how I grew something so perfect and healthy..

Now dont get me wrong I tried to be healthy all pregnancy,

but I could of sat here and ate broccoli and carrots all day..

but instead I did have a lot of junk food. 

IT WAS DELICIOUS! 

:) 

**He looks just like Fielding**

Fielding was of course overly in love as well..

If I wasn't cuddling or feeding the lad,

He was in Fieldings arms.. :)

We decided to make him feel like he was ours,

So I dug out a soft little blankey,

and a hat and mittens and.. 

:) 

He loved it..

In the picture below it was during a yawn.

;) 

I had a few complications, 

and so I had to stay until Saturday morning..

and then.. 

We were ready to hit the road.. 

** Yes, I know the buckles are all weird still, 

we were still in the process of fitting the carseat when I took the picture :)  **

Anyways.. 

If you couldn't tell,

I am amazingly in love, 

So I take more than enough pictures.. 

So here they are.. 

Look at his huge feet,

with his long toes..

 :) 

.. and then his cousin Creek came to meet him.

Creek was so cute with him.. He started rocking back and forth,

and was singing to him..

It was so cute! 

 

So.. This last week I have been in heaven.. 

Even though I have been in a little pain, ;) 

It has been an amazing week with my little family actually being able to be together.

 Fielding is such a good dad. 

He has been there to help me out from day one,

since sometimes I can barely move.

He is there to change diapers, burp him, cuddle him..

gosh dang it..

he is the most amazing dad in the world..

and it makes me so happy that he is my sons daddy. :) 

Kruz is definitely the most lucky boy in the world to have him..

:)

My life will never be the same,

and has changed for the better.

I never want to be without my baby boy again.. 

We got his newborn pictures done on Tuesday..

So you can bet your bottom dollar that they will be posted on here :)

So keep your eyeballs open.

Yay for my family finally being together.
