Going Home

Baby Josie in her carseat for the first time GOING HOME!!!! her going home weight was 7lbs 11oz and her jaundice levels were only 5.7 woot woot!!! she is an amazing baby for sure

Pictures of Miss JosieAnn with her Daddy, the one pic with Daddy feeding her was taken after she had nursed for 30 mins...they had to give her an ounce of formula, which she took down in less than a min I might add lol, because her Blood Sugar was low, it was only 39, which it is supposed to be at 50-60...it was the only time she had issues with low blood sugar...

The pictures of him on his phone while holding her are him looking at Baby Names Online lol, it took us about 3 hours to finally decide on the name JosieAnn, other contenders were, Irelynn, Tarynn, Josephine, Faerynn, and Zoe

Josie With Her Mommy

Here are some pictures of Baby Josie with her mommy just mins after being born!! WARNING there are some Nursing pictures with a good amount of Bewbie showing lol, but noting vulgar, i had to post them cause i am absolutely in love with how easily she took to nursing and how wonderful she is!!

She Latched on just 20 mins after being born and nursed for 30 mins total!! the nurses said they had never seen a baby latch that quickly and eat that long just after being born :D thats my Josie!

JosieAnn Marie-Gallagher Schell IS HERE!!!

Baby JosieAnn was born on May 4th 2010 at 2:06 pm weighing 8lbs 5oz and measuring 21 inches long...she is of course absolutely amazing, and I can not thank Heavenly Father enough for adding yet another wonderfull blessing into our family.

she is not only a great sleeper but GREAT eater she latched on not only 20 mins after being born and ate for 15 mins on each side..and has continued to latch on like a pro and eating ever 3 hours since that time..

Look At Who Turns 4 Today!!!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY ASHTON

A look down memory lane! Ashton Carter was born on January 8th 2006, weighing 3lbs 13oz and 17 inches long...he had a ton of dark brown, black hair, and was the cutest baby boy you ever saw! After 2 weeks in the NICU at the Cody Hospital our baby boy came home with us :D

Ashtons first birthday!! oh what fun we had..He got a lot of CARS things that year...including a CARS bedspread, a CARS Movie, and a CARS Chair, Along with a CARS Cupcake Cake...which you can see in this picture he really enjoyed :D By his first birthday Ashton weighed 16lbs 1 oz..still a tiny guy but very active...He was walking and talking by now and just full of energy.

By his second Birthday Ashton had recieved his first hair cut, which is shown in this picture here...he was not quite sure what to think about it lol, and honestly neither was mommy...she cried after cutting off all his curls :( but he looked so grown up afterwards that it put a smile right back on her face. By his second birthday Ash weighed in at 20 lbs..and was naming his colors and animals along with many more things...what a smart little man

By Ashtons third birthday he had grow up so much, he could say his ABC's 123's and was POTTY TRAINED!! whooo hoooo!! It was year that Ashton grew a love for the zoo and especially the Gorrillas and Monkeys!

AND THEN HE WAS 4!!! and I am amazed at how much he has grown and how much of a man he seems to be!! Ashton has entered into Sunbeams in Church and will start Pre-School this year!!! I look at him in this picture and think...someday he will be wearing a suite much like this from SEARS going off to serve his Best Two Years!!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY ASHTON CARTER...We love you and are so proud
