Our little Skylee Nanette Kailing was born October 7, 2012 at 1:16 am. I really wanted to try for a VBAC so with the help of many doctors we decided that a planned slow induction was what we needed to do to get Skylee here safely. So we scheduled our induction day for October 6th, 2012. They called us that morning at 5:40 am and asked if we could be there by 6:30 am. So we headed in for the long haul. Because of my heart conditions and previous c-section we had to do the induction very slowly. When I got to the hospital I was only 1 cm dilated and about 40%...so we knew it was going to be a long day! We started with a Foley Bulb to thin and dilated me without any extra fluid or medication...by 1:30 that afternoon I was dilated to 3 cm and 80%. At this point my contractions were getting pretty strong and were about 2-3 min apart. Phase one of the process was complete and it was time to break my water, start internal monitoring of me and the baby and then get my epidural. Thankfully this time I only had to have one! :) </div>

Our cute nurse drew this fun cupcake on our delivery room board. Here are a few pictures from the day. I was so blessed to have so much support, my mom, sister, and her girls came down from Kaysville, and Justin's mom were all there in and out throughout the day to check on us :)</div>

By 8 pm I was 6 cm dilated and still 80% thinned...at 10 pm I was at 7+ cm and 90% thinned. At midnight I was 9+ and finally around 12:40 am we were finally ready to start pushing! 1:16 am on October 7th, our beautiful baby girl was born 5 lbs 12 oz with lots of fun dark hair!! I feel so blessed that everything went so well. I know my Heavenly Father and Savior were giving me the comfort and strength that my body needed to be able to have a successful VBAC delivery. And to have no complications with my heart, I know is a miracle and blessing from my Father in Heaven. Justin and I both knew that our family wasn't complete after having Avenly and to see it come full circle and have such a wonderful pregnancy and delivery is more than we could ever ask for and gives us much hope for the future!! We couldn't be happier!! Thank you to everyone for your thoughts and prayers throughout this journey. We have truly felt your love and support! </div>

It is so crazy to me to look back at these photos and compare! I am so thankful to my Heavenly Father right now that I have been able to make it this far in this pregnancy and most of all that I haven't had any of the issues that I had last time. Granted I would go back and do it all again to get my Avenly, she is such a blessing in our lives and we love her so much! She is going to be the best big sister</div>

We had a few pictures done by <a href="http://tiffanyjanephotography.com/">tiffanyjane</a> of our growing family. And I love the way they turned out!! I really wanted to get some maternity pictures this time around since I didn't get a chance the last time. I had really wanted to when I was pregnant with Avenly, but by the time my belly was big enough I had also started getting pretty swollen from the pre-eclampsia...so needless to say I didn't really feel like paying someone to document it anymore. Even though this time around I still don't have the cutest pregnant body, I'm so happy we got a chance to get these! We are all so excited to meet this little girl! </div>

I have been such a slacker lately when it comes to this blog! Just some quick updates...I'm almost 33 weeks pregnant with our second baby girl...no she doesn't have a name yet. So far things are going fairly well. I will know more tomorrow after my next appointment where I will get the results back from my last tests. Justin is working as hard as ever at SunRiver and will soon be taking on the responsibility of managing a different community also, but this one will be all on his own!! Avenly is just her busy little self! She is super excited about becoming a big sister and loves to talk to baby sister through my belly button :) Sorry it's short and sweet but at least it's something</div>

And yet, in the same breath I can't imagine our lives without you. You bring so much joy to our lives and we love having your sweet little spirit in our home. However, as sweet as you are, you can be as equally...let's say 'spicy' ... You are teaching your mommy and daddy so much about how to be patient. But we must not be learning it, because you try to teach us again everyday! :) But we know that we are so blessed that you chose to come to us, and we know you will do great things here on this earth. You have such a fun personality and you make us laugh everyday. </div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 238); -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: underline; "><img src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-vlqhZJI5ycg/TY_SmXGhGrI/AAAAAAAAAgA/nzLBPd7EoYE/s320/IMG_1560.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5588917219068287666" style="display: block; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px; " /></span><div style="text-align: center;">We love you so much!!</div><div style="text-align: center;"> You are incredibly independent, and very smart....at 2 years old you...</div><div style="text-align: center;">*know all of the colors and most of the shapes</div><div style="text-align: center;">*You can count to 10</div><div style="text-align: center;">*You recognize most of the letters in the alphabet, in any order</div><div style="text-align: center;">*You are always talking. You talk in complete sentences, and are a great communicator, most of the time that is, unless you are upset and then I have to remind you to use your words (instead of screaming :)</div><div style="text-align: center;">*You love to uses the phrases we say to you...like "mommy look at me" (when I'm not paying attention to her) or "don't swollow it" (when we are chewing gum) "chew it up good momma" (when we are eating) and "don't squeak (squeeze) it" - when I give her a juice box, and also "mommy be nice"</div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 238); -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: underline; "><img src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-NjPLTFqRPi0/TY_SmwbWpDI/AAAAAAAAAgI/Ns_9Rv_lZ5I/s320/IMG_1735.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5588917225866568754" style="display: block; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px; " /></span><div style="text-align: center;">*You love shoes and you are always putting on mommy's or daddys.</div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 238); -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: underline; "><img src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-attxvVP_Exs/TY_WNqjsh9I/AAAAAAAAAgg/YdwY06jySXc/s320/188577_1908905607440_1385848022_32230181_6230350_n.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5588921192840726482" style="display: block; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 238px; height: 320px; " /></span><div style="text-align: center;">*You are just now starting to sing. You have always ask us to sing songs, but now you are starting to sing them by yourself. The week before your birthday you learned how to sing the happy birthday song and you sang it almost everyday. Then you would hold up 2 fingers and say, "I'm 2!"</div><div style="text-align: center;">*You still love water and to be outside. You would go for a walk everyday if you could. You love to jump on the bed and hide under the covers. You love books, movies, and anything that has to do with Elmo. You love bubbles, your tiger, and your baby. You will be the best mommy some day. You are so sweet to your baby, you love to take her for walks, feed her and even change her diaper. However you have been blaming your baby for things you've done that you know you shouldn't :) </div><div style="text-align: center;">*You loved your binky. I say loved because it "broke" about a week before your birthday. But I'm sure you would still love it if you had it. I cut a little hole in it and when you noticed it you told me, "I don't like this one, it's broken." so I asked you if you wanted to throw it away. You said yes, so you threw it in the garbage. It has been a hard adjustment for you. You still ask for it quite often and when I remind you that it was broken so you threw it away you say, ok, and thats it. But you have a hard time settling down to sleep at nap time and night time. Hopefully things keep getting better.</div><div style="text-align: center;">*You love to dance whenever there is music on...and it is the cutest thing ever. You get your hands up, bounce and shake your little hips. When we get in the car you say, "mommy music on" then you tell us, "mommy, daddy, dance" she has to make sure everyone is involved if one of us isn't dancing you won't leave us alone until we do.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 238); -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: underline; "><img src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-GUUiIY7M9qo/TY_WNY3hePI/AAAAAAAAAgY/jKMgaKzt2sE/s320/181504_1889855691204_1385848022_32197531_3718428_n.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5588921188092049650" style="display: block; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 238px; height: 320px; " /></span><div style="text-align: center;">*You are still my little peanut.

Mommy, daddy, cousins, aunts, uncles, grandma's and especially your papa's.</div><div style="text-align: center;">*You love Jesus. You point Him out in all the pictures and I know you know who He is and that He loves you by the look on your face. You say the cutest little prayers, it is usually, "Heavenly Father, thank you for day. Name of Jesus Christ, Amen" (without help)</div><div style="text-align: center;">*You give the best hugs and kisses, when you want to. Usually you aren't super affectionate but when you are it melts our hearts. </div><div style="text-align: center;">*You are usually very polite. You always say Thank you. Please has been a little bit harder but we can usually get it out of you and when you say it you also still sign it. (that's about the only sign you still use). And you will say "excuse me" when you burp or need to get by someone.</div><div style="text-align: center;">We love you more and more everyday!

When Jut was growing up he and his brothers would have to get through a trap on christmas morning with out setting it off in order to open presents right away. If they set off the trap, which they did most years, then they would have to wait until after breakfast, and pictures and other things to open presents. Since most of my family lives in Kaysville, it was only my brother's kids who where in from Tuscan who got to experience the trap this year. I'm not sure if you can tell, but there is fishing line strung back and forth up the stairs that was attached at the bottom to a bucket full of dominoes, so if you bumped the string too much the dominoes would all come tumbling down - making a loud noise indicating that they had set off the trap. Dylan made it through too fast that we didin't even get a picture.</div><div><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_AcuiU8IFgtE/TRzLmcXjNAI/AAAAAAAAAdw/ZFXXKQ1J7J8/s1600/IMG_1833.JPG"><img style="display:block;

We thought it was only going to take about 2 hours, so about an hour and a half into the drive I'm trying to keep Av awake so she doesn't fall asleep right before we get there and then have to wake her up...turns out I had to keep her awake for a whole lot longer than I planned. Then once we finally got there, it started to get really windy then came the thunder and lightening. Needless to say (if you can't tell by the look on her face in the picture above) Avenly didn't like it much! I'm sure it didn't help that she was completely exhausted.

So while I'm busy in the kitchen Av decides she really wants to go for a walk, I mean really wants to go. She's crying hysterically pointing at the closet that we keep the stroller in, "walk, walk" she says over and over. So finally I told her she could take her baby for a walk around the house. We strap her baby in and I go back to making jam. Next thing I know she's back in the kitchen getting into cupboards and drawers, which she does all the time so I don't pay much attention to it. Once I'm finished and I can finally give Av my full attention I find her taking much more than just her baby for a walk :) silly girl...at least she kept herself entertained! </div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_AcuiU8IFgtE/TIqdtJ2tpJI/AAAAAAAAAb0/jNNOKBSwOD4/s1600/IMG_1759.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_AcuiU8IFgtE/TIqdtJ2tpJI/AAAAAAAAAb0/jNNOKBSwOD4/s320/IMG_1759.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5515394092733670546" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_AcuiU8IFgtE/TIqdsuIT0YI/AAAAAAAAAbs/It6V_9R04PI/s1600/IMG_1760.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_AcuiU8IFgtE/TIqdsuIT0YI/AAAAAAAAAbs/It6V_9R04PI/s320/IMG_1760.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5515394085291282818" /></a>The Kailing Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08218795424142317972noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9210369614822142013.post-61877804316813958522010-08-06T14:06:00.000-07:002010-08-06T14:07:29.427-07:00{recent pictures}<div style="text-align: center;">one of these days i will sit down and catch up on all things Avenly...but until then here are some recent pictures from the last few months</div>The Kailing Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08218795424142317972noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9210369614822142013.post-52617560635441258852010-08-06T14:05:00.001-07:002010-08-06T14:05:50.719-07:00<img style="visibility:hidden;width:0px;height:0px;" border=0 width=0 height=0 src="http://counters.gigya.com/wildfire/IMP/CXNID=2000002.0NXC/bHQ9MTI4MTEyODcyMTY4MCZwdD*xMjgxMTI4NzQ3NjUwJnA9Mzg2MzYxJmQ9Jm49YmxvZ2dlciZnPTEmbz*zYWI1NTZlMTBkNGM*/NTk2OTBmMjBiOWY3NDNlOGU1MCZvZj*w.gif" /><div style="width:480px; text-align: center;"><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" src="http://w262.photobucket.com/pbwidget.swf?pbwurl=http%3A%2F%2Fw262.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fii81%2Fmandylynnkailing%2F60d71d8c.pbw" height="360" width="480"><a href="http://photobucket.com/slideshows" target="_blank"><img src="http://pic.photobucket.com/slideshows/btn.gif" style="float:left;border-width: 0;" ></a><a href="http://s262.photobucket.com/albums/ii81/mandylynnkailing/?action=view¤t=60d71d8c.pbw" target="_blank"><img src="http://pic.photobucket.com/slideshows/btn_viewallimages.gif" style="float:left;border-width: 0;" ></a></div>The Kailing Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08218795424142317972noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9210369614822142013.post-85726175212895829002010-07-07T21:31:00.001-07:002010-07-07T21:36:17.798-07:00all grown up<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_AcuiU8IFgtE/TDVVXZYfr7I/AAAAAAAAAbc/mlZInltcdpE/s1600/IMG_1664.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_AcuiU8IFgtE/TDVVXZYfr7I/AAAAAAAAAbc/mlZInltcdpE/s400/IMG_1664.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5491389181087166386" /></a><div style="text-align: center;">I took this pic of Av about a month ago and i just can't get over how grown up she looks in it...so i just had to share! </div>The Kailing Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08218795424142317972noreply@blogger.com6
