My Monday Makeover

me huge and preggo right before Paxton was born
Not only do I feel like a new woman being out of the hospital for the last 11 days- getting close to needing to enter another type of hospital if you know what I mean, but the good news is I am not pregnant anymore!!!!! So the makeover for this week is all about me, big old pregnant woman just 11 days ago onto big old not pregnant woman! Although I am down 22 pounds and I only gained 14, but I still have along way to go, four kids in two years does not do a body good...at ALL! I guess when you are in the hospital worried sick about your helpless little baby and the other four you have left at home, you can drop weight like crazy. So there you go, I guess there was a something good that came out of that hospital stay besides getting a healthy baby to come home!

right before we brought paxton home

words cannot describe how happy i was

and on a side note i am pretty sure i aged like 10 years in that hospital, every picture i have from the NICU i look so darn tired

I'm so happy you are home! The hospital is never fun. I always had a hard time with my family being split up also. I love it when we are home from the hospital under one roof! Enjoy it. It is such a blessing.

Not too many people can pull off a hospital gown like you can (and believe me, I work in a hospital. I'll soon be working in our NICU in January when I graduate :) You look adorable, and Paxton is too precious! How are the kids adjusting to a new baby?
