Thursday Sweats and Pampers Blowouts.

It's a Thursday kinda SWEATS day (for Mamma) and a Poop all over day (for Baby H).
No doctors appointment and no visitors so baby Hunter and I are taking it easy.
This of course really means that Hunter does this...
 And mommy cleans the house, does some laundry, puts together a grocery list and thinks about all of the things she WANTS to do; like put together a post pregnancy work out plan, re-upholster the rocking chair with the ADORABLE fabric that has been sitting on my craft table for three weeks and window shop online. (I cant wait for some new clothes for my HOT post pregnancy BOD I am gonna be rocking here sooner then later)

Last night we had a family BBQ with the Goold and Roberts (my grandfathers sister and her family) and it was a blast!
 
 
I absolutely love my family and adore our extended relatives.

We have another overnight Oxemitry test scheduled for tonight to see how Hunter's oxygen levels are doing and to see if he can be taken off the tank.
At yesterdays appointment Dr. M said that his levels dipped 17% of the time mostly while he is in a deep sleep.
Its a bittersweet feeling to think he may need to be on the oxygen a while longer. I just want to carry my little baby around from room to room and kiss those sweet little cheeks. I also want him to be able to breath well and not have to worry about him while he is sleeping.
EVENTUALLY he will be in his nursery and I will NOT be sleeping on the floor next to him and I don't want to be worried he's struggling to get the air he needs. 
Its amazing how much in just the last week he has changed. Babies really do grow so quickly. In the last week he gained a whole pound (which is AWESOME) but I can totally see it. I probably take a million pictures a day to capture how tiny he is because I know this little stage wont last long.

Keep us in your prayers tonight readers!

PS. New Blog features coming soon. 
Daily features on all things babies, wardrobe, crafting, thrifting, food, music and MORE.
Still working on how I am going to cram EVERYTHING I want to blog about into 7 days (or less since I wont blog everyday) and also keep it all about THE FORDS. 
Keep your eyes out for fun new additions soon!

Hunters First Bath!

Tonight Daddy and Mommy gave little Hunter his first bath.

It was so fun.
We were a little worried at first... 
Is the water too hot? Will he pee all over? How long do we have before he starts shivering?

Well, we pulled it off.
Hunter did great and didn't cry at all. 
I think he liked the warm water.
We know he loved getting that nasty strap around his chest off and those icky sticky's off his face. 

He looks so different without a million wires attached to him and tubing on his face.
So stinking ADORABLE and PERFECT!
It was so AMAZING for me to be able to carry my baby around for a few minutes. He is usually so stationary with all of the machines.

Our little man cleans up very well. With a fresh diaper and new outfit, lotioned skin and a nice comb-over hair do, this little man is hopefully ready for bed! 
(At least for the next three hours that is)

Goodnight Readers.

PS. We have a picture of Daddy and Hunter during this first bath experience.
However, Daddy isn't wearing a shirt. Er-go.. Not posted :(
