Our Little Guy!




Well i am bad at blogging! But i promise i will make more time for it. Our little boy Maddex Rodney Dredge was born 3 1/2 weeks early on August 4 at 8 a.m. I was put on bedrest on July 30 and the dr. made me go into the hospital to be tested every other day. So my mother and me went in on monday to see how i was doing.. i totally expected to be sent home like the other times but much to my surprise they decided to keep me and they induced me at 4:30 in the afternoon.. Labor was not as bad as people say for me.. my epidural was great and life was good. I only pushed for an hour and then we got to meet our little guy! Maddex was sick and later that day got transported to the NICU at University of Utah. There we spent 11 long days and now we are so happy to have our healthy little guy home! We both love being parents and wouldn't trade it for anything! I will post more soon!

We are so happy for you guys... and relieved that Maddex is home and healthy. I say ditto to epidurels. I didn't feel a thing... once I had mine. When i was pregnant, i saw a t-shirt that said, "I (heart) Epidurels." so funny. i should've bought it. Glad you all are doing well and enjoying life with baby!
