This by far is my favorite picture. Since Blake was born Riley and Blake have been the best of buds. I love it!

This time around it was a lot less stressful. We knew when Blake was coming and were prepared. Where as with Riley we had a surprised C-section. So Friday bright and Early we headed down to Banner Gateway to welcome this new lil' boy into this world.

I handled everything very well but I will tell you I started having a panic attack about at this point because it actually hit me that I was going to be cut open again! A little scary if you ask me. Thank goodness I married a wonderful man that kept calm the whole time. I love Nolan so much. He literally is strong where I am weak :)

Blake was born easily he had a knot in his cord but thankfully he was a c-section. He had a full head of hair an barely cried. He was born weighing 7 pounds 8 ounces and 20 inches long. Funny story though my CRNA was a guy I went to HS with. Weird to have someone you went to HS with see your bare bum among other things. LOL He was very professional though.

I can't believe how little he was especially compared to Mr. Riley. Nolan and I kept calling him our lil' peanut. They gave me some medicine right after the surgery and it made me very loopy so to anyone I said crazy things to I do apologize.

She is an awesome swim teacher. She is so nice but tough enough to not let them kiddos cry the whole time. The first lesson was a little rough but after that Riley became a fish.

If you don't know it AZ gets EXTREMELY HOT! So even the lil' pool is a wonderful blessing in the middle of the summer. Riley loved it so much that every morning he would crawl through the doggy door and start playing in it first thing in the morning. I love that Riley isn't scared of anything.

He's at such a fun age because he's constantly learning and mimicking us. He's learned to throw the ball from Nolan and fudge is his biggest fan. They have to both run after the ball at the same time.

We are now 28 weeks along. We found out we are having a BOY! Riley is thrilled as well as mommy and daddy! Well if Riley could understand I'm pretty certain he would be at least :) I honestly did not believe Dr. Holmes it was a boy because this pregnancy is so different. I'm not sick (phew) and I barely even feel pregnant aside from my constantly growing belly. That's a BIG change from the last one. We are excited to add another boy to the mix especially since they will be 19 months apart. And yes this was planned, we know how babies are made lol.The Palmer Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18075870919599609492noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3814831602086461419.post-83097906705960002222011-02-09T09:02:00.000-08:002011-02-09T09:05:21.259-08:00Suprise!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhy3VrDsEKlkRp7kMmNuYycXdPEv2ToYLgzOtLStd8BMbroxtKg3rbf3F-C-djbxv5BVy5Vz13dMWwBcDl76SvS0ApWB-8Wm5wzTZNKO4m6ikQUsNT8s43pqx8D1ocMR_58GCeW0PP4a4h4/s1600/Bun%252Bin%252Bthe%252BOven.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 256px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhy3VrDsEKlkRp7kMmNuYycXdPEv2ToYLgzOtLStd8BMbroxtKg3rbf3F-C-djbxv5BVy5Vz13dMWwBcDl76SvS0ApWB-8Wm5wzTZNKO4m6ikQUsNT8s43pqx8D1ocMR_58GCeW0PP4a4h4/s320/Bun%252Bin%252Bthe%252BOven.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5571736496773807170" /></a>Right before Christmas we found out there is a bun in the oven.

There are a couple of posts...<div> Nolan and I just celebrated our 5 year wedding Anniversary. Yeah that's right 5 years!! It's weird because it doesn't seem like that long but than I don't really remember what it's like to not have him in my life. I feel so blessed to be married to my best friend and the love of my life. </div><div><br /></div><div> For our Anniversary Nolan surprised me with a night without Riley and a stay at the Hotel Valley Ho. If you've never heard of it it is a Hotel in Scottsdale that is very retro. I did a photo shoot a few years ago there and loved it! Everything is decorated and designed after the 60's. It's very Beattles and Nolan and I love 60's music and the 60's era. This is a picture of us at dinner in the hotel. Nolan of course was making a silly face.</div><div><br /></div><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 213px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgRuahKCrGp19Bb4FW2BGH9nqYNgkbucc6Nj0RapoWWfYDioEJooXRRFu9B6-TZrID9BfFvoBhz1HGF0SmYmQH2GBVJhEIYP-bvGvOw5FtJ4FL7r2zS6_2bH0klDqsHZIaR3osjtnY3I7lw/s320/DSC_0031.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5507256921861961266" /><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 213px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2_hw35Xos5t8gkcyQ-_MsIjSvD_PLU0ey7P7YKA7nG8-cblHt5fariEuRJqpXUJrOLFfu7gV14dYX1AzczIJAtz52BiJz6-m3pLiJATx6mxpGIdeXoPdV7DhOg0R_NEP9stMNJZ9b5j1D/s320/DSC_0030.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5507256910222337378" /><div style="text-align: center;">This is our hotel room.

Nolan and I decided after seeing an infomercial to get Insanity beach body. Mind you that I think if I let him Nolan would purchase anything off of the television. He loves infomercials! Thank goodness he hasn't seen QVC. </span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:100%;color:#333300;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px;"> Anyways with that said Nolan and I started Insanity beachbody a few weeks later. Just to recap, Insanity is not for the faint of heart. They actually say that in the start dvd. It is extremely hard core. We started the "warm up" and both looked at each other like "what were we thinking..." But the hard work paid off and after 60 days of literal Insanity I'm back down to my fighting weight and Nolan.... Well Nolan is still in great shape... (Darn man, He works out or doesn't work out and still stays athletetically fit.) But if anyone wants a fit challenge, Insanity is the way to go. Next on our list is P90X. We have had P90X for a while but purchased it 2 weeks before we found out I was pregnant and I quit working out after we found out :) LOL Thus probably explaining the weight gain LOL.</span></span></div>The Palmer Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18075870919599609492noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3814831602086461419.post-14334445976916615072010-05-19T21:28:00.000-07:002010-05-19T21:37:34.923-07:00Eatin' like his parents!<img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhMDpfVyUJF_BumE9ZrNErlwmRVosbfNv2tycyxVUnG7Uu85gHCtHmw41CNHXF0F9nMoDpluL-R9n4pzjKjCtRyEJX8eJeckzDPi8QyQdE3bVUt0MzVK6j8VUAzIijs5Xu7H23oEjPv4KzZ/s320/102_5440.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5473204985269384114" /><div style="text-align: center;">So Riley is eating foods now.

And yes he is wearing a skipper hat but there aren't many cute hat options for baby boys and since this lil' bear is fair skinned that hat was a must!<br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgjYU0fiF8eydwRz1wEKqQceCSRmaIJ908IrrvS-TMZJizIOsEYnSVZxnHppLAENiKQBoORkX4NFr6Awvnb_GGBHuUczoSRoqy1442AljajQ5blUpoq7VdTIB3n63ufmewEsd_OCRZBRbPS/s1600/102_5468.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5455788605896833442" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgjYU0fiF8eydwRz1wEKqQceCSRmaIJ908IrrvS-TMZJizIOsEYnSVZxnHppLAENiKQBoORkX4NFr6Awvnb_GGBHuUczoSRoqy1442AljajQ5blUpoq7VdTIB3n63ufmewEsd_OCRZBRbPS/s320/102_5468.JPG" /></a> This is Adilyn ( our neice) and me by the monkeys.<br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPfCxnIyxGAw8CLSosfiMqKRAKtE0-BFyyLkKBvL9E5YiUDKDa1iQNdaQEwFYeuNibI8trgglNgDEGl0CFABxfHAFe3T7Ar4fFNya4N8eobL2sVVu6A4y28QbrFXjU64lIDy99ZwDeLeND/s1600/102_5470.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5455788524729612866" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPfCxnIyxGAw8CLSosfiMqKRAKtE0-BFyyLkKBvL9E5YiUDKDa1iQNdaQEwFYeuNibI8trgglNgDEGl0CFABxfHAFe3T7Ar4fFNya4N8eobL2sVVu6A4y28QbrFXjU64lIDy99ZwDeLeND/s320/102_5470.JPG" /></a><br /><br /> This is Nolan by the monkeys. For some reason the monkeys seem to be our families favorite animals.... Who knows... I think if I'd let him Nolan would want a monkey of his own. He said the monkey could sit atop Fudges(our dog) back.<br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgvYKse3c_C9HhsFLtGyrt5oubmtsbmFKtoFGTq2l270gbujsaod7EoAltk6-3Qm6dQ41_LSaCyzyzu-VthcO9TeTf2TI820JJtHW2S5vjEW2nyPeOqcZde-vgvq0GyZpCfDaGNEQCSY-N1/s1600/102_5469.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5455788440071008194" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgvYKse3c_C9HhsFLtGyrt5oubmtsbmFKtoFGTq2l270gbujsaod7EoAltk6-3Qm6dQ41_LSaCyzyzu-VthcO9TeTf2TI820JJtHW2S5vjEW2nyPeOqcZde-vgvq0GyZpCfDaGNEQCSY-N1/s320/102_5469.JPG" /></a> All in all it was a wonderful day filled with our furry friends and fun family.
