X-games

What better way to spend some time waiting for the car while the oil is getting changed? I think we found a future career and future sponsor (please read this Mt. Dew).

Bonding!

Viggo närmar sig syrran sakta men säkert!

Finally she has a name

After days of negotiation and going over hundreds of possibilities....we have finally agreed upon a name for our little one. No longer will she have to be referred to as just little sister or baby girl.

We proudly introduce to you Kajsa Audrey Marchant.

Visitors

We had our first non-family visitors stop by to see the little girl. Tomas and Emilie, Raoul and Ms. Z, and of course godparents Brian and Erin. From the chocolate cigars, to the beautiful flowers and balloons, thank you all for welcoming our little girl into the world.












A few moments from yesterday





Can I do anything the normal way?

Mommy here writing from the bed! So we are in our second day and I start to feel like a human again. Yesterday morning was dramatic, but I'm just happy that we all are fine. You know how I picked the planned C-section over vaginal since I didn't want to end up having an emergency C-section? Ok, so we ended up with a what I think they call crash C-section (urakut snitt) because the baby's heart rate fell very drastic when they gave me the spinal so I got the two worst scenarios, both spinal and got to sleep through the whole thing and missed the first hours of my daughters life!
I'm so happy she is fine, but little bummed that I missed her birth and her first hours! Why can't it never just work out normally when I do something?
Anyway we are fine now and baby nameless is super awesome! Viggo was here visting and he totally ignored me the whole time! I think he was little bummed out of all the cords so he played with his cars instead and pointed at little sister and said bejbi like 100 times :-). He is doing great with my parents and he dosesn't seem to miss us to much!!

Both mom and baby are doing great. We are still waiting on the c-scan results about the lung, but so far so good.

Waiting

We are in the waiting room at Prentice and Viggo is home with Annica and very happy to watch Team Umizoomi...still waiting on his thoughts of being a big brother.

Sista dagen

Nu försöker jag få till det för fjärde gången! Har lite nyheter på bloggen och det är att jag kan nu blogga från min telefon och så har Dustin börjat hjälpa till lite så vi är lite mer uppdaterade. Nu ar det bara 14 timmar kvar tills man är tvåbarnsmor! Jag typ gråter varje gång jag ser viggo. Tänk att han skall bli storebror! Vi uppdaterar imorgon från sjukhuset. Ha en bra natt!

Viggo is Awesome.

Therese has done an amazing job with this site, but with a 2nd bundle of joy due to arrive in less than 24 hours I figured I would try and pick up some of the obvious slack in writing on the blog. Plus I'm sure the American followers will be thrilled to not have to pretend like they understand what the blog says.

As we get ready to pack out bag for the hospital and get everything squared away for tomorrow, I do not know who among us is more excited. I'm leaning towards it being Therese, but that is only because she can't wait to stop burping every minute (don't tell her I said this).

So with my first (and final 1 child father post), here is Viggo at the park, wearing a shirt that I picked out. I know, it is very easy to see where Viggo gets his awesomeness from.
