Makai R.P Love

After only 9 hours of labor, blood, sweat and tears my lil boy was placed into my arms. Once again the giving birth experience was amazing. As painful as it can be the outcome is simply wonderful.

Dre compassionate through the labor. Normally women are yelling during labor but all I could do was squeeze his hand and thank the Lord.



Kaija is so excited to be a big sister! She has been such a big help! She stayed at the hospital all day on Wednesday and asked the nurse every time she came in if her brother was coming yet. Luckily my mom was there the whole time to take her out when they came in to "check" me. My mom came stayed all day Wednesday and came up every day and brought me and Dre grub. Without her we may have starved due to the blah hospital food  LOL Kaija stayed with her while we stayed at the hospital and took VERY good care of her as well as spoiling her rotten! Thanks Ma!!!



The stay at the hospital was starting to get long so Dre entertained me with a nice lil pole dance! Needless to say I laughed so hard it hurt! He got his moves from Kevin James on King of Queens and did a swell job!



Makai is amazing and so lovable! He makes the cutest faces and has the sweetest lil cry. He is a great baby. I love the middle of the night feedings when there is no one else around, no TV, dim lights and we can bond.



We named him Makai because I love that name :) The R is for my dad Ronald Scott Furniss and my Grandpa Ronald Furniss and the P is for my grandpa Phil Bake better known as Grandpa Cowboy. He was named after 3 very great men in my life! I just wish that my grandpas were still here to meet him.



My dad made the most AMAZING cradle for Makai. He told everyone that he was making it including Dre and Kaija and everyone did a good job of keeping it a secret. He was here with it when we came home from the hospital. I know my dad is crafty but this cradle is stunning!Teri made the mattress and the sheets due to its totally custom and a Furniss original!  THANKS Dad and Teri!!!



God has truly blessed me!
