Today was Baileys newborn photo shoot!
Her collarbone is getting better all the time
We have decided that we would Co-sleep with her. Narvel was back to work as of yesterday so I would be the one staying up all night with Bailey so he could get some sleep.
She was getting fatter all the time
This morning I was in the nursery and I was getting her ready for the day, me and Bay were going to go and have lunch with Carol!
She was so so cute
"Who's mommy' girl?" I smiled. We decided that we would go for an early lunch, meet Narvel at the office and then head to the shoot.
I kissed her nose and softly pinched her chubby cheeks
She cooed
I picked her up and walked back to our room. I laid Bay on Narvels chest and put the blanket on top of both of them. "Be good for daddy why'll mommy takes a quick Shower." She kissed her head and Narvels lips.
Narvel slowly opened his eyes and smiled at us. He held Bay close and tight
"I'm going to hop in the shower real quick, keep sleeping, just letting you know that you have her. She's fed and I just changed her and burped her and now she should be getting ready for a nap so you should be good for now." I said, I grabbed her passy that has the hole in it so you can stick your finger in it. I popped it in her mouth and I made sure she would be comfortable.
"Okay baby thank you." He smiled big and rubbed her back
I smiled and jumped in the shower, I came out and checked on them once I got out and I couldn't help but have tears in my eyes and a huge dorky grin on my face when I came out and Bailey was sprawled out on Narvels chest with her head facing me, she was passed out and Narvel was snoring. He had his big hand over her small body for protection and he even got up and got her her favorite blanket because she probably fussed for it.
I grabbed my phone and took a picture of them. They are truly he best two thing to ever happened to me
I saved the picture and I went to finish getting dressed and ready for the day. Let's just say.... Miss Bailey does not like the hair dryer.
As soon as she heard it she started screaming
I heard her over the hair dryer and I immediately turned it off. I walked out of the room and Narvel was now wide awake with A screaming Bailey over his shoulder as he tried to sooth her
"Its okay sweetie. Its just the hair dryer." He soothed rubbing her back
I sat on the edge of the bed and pouted, I felt so bad that I woke her up and scared her. She was shaking and crying.
"Shh Shh its okay, daddys right her." He soothed
"I'm sorry.... I didn't mean to wake you two up.... I've been letting hair dry on its own for the last few days, I figured because we were going out today.... I would blow dry my hair." I said looking down
"Baby its more then okay, she's just not used to it yet." He rubbed my back
"She hates everything I do.... I can't sooth her, I can't do anything because it always scares her. She always wants you when she's with me.... I can't even make my own daughter like me." I said standing up
"Oh honey thats not true, she loves you so so much." He said
"No she doesn't. She hates me. She wants nothing to do with me." I said and I walked back to the bathroom
"Sweetheart." He said
I just finished getting ready and I went back out. When Bailey saw me she whimpered and started to softly cry.
"Shh shh its okay." NArvel soothed
I just shook my head and walked out of the room. "Of course. I carry her in my stomach for 9 months and she treats her father better. He wasn't the one who pushed her out after 10 hours of labor! Oh but who cares! He's more lovable. Great so that means no newborn pictures with me in them holding her." I was so upset.
Narvel laid her in the swing in our room an walked into the bathroom with me. "Babe look at me." I said
"No. just.... let me be alone." I said not looking at him and picking up my lipgloss
"I love you." He told me
"I'm not talking to you right now." She said
"What did i do?" He asked
I didn't answer him
He sighed and left the bathroom
I put my lipgloss on and then walked out. I walked over to a calm Bailey and picked her up. She started to cry and scream when I picked her up. I brought her downstairs and put her in her car seat.
After i got her in the car seat. I tried singing to her. she calmed down a good bit a looked up at me
I sat her car seat on the coffee table and pouted at her. "Why don't you like me?" I sniffled. "I just want to love you and be your mommy..... but all you ever want is your daddy." I sighed, I caressed her cheek with my pointer finger and rubbed her belly with my other hand.
She cooed at me and gave me a little smile
I sighed and just looked at her. "You're so awake now which means you'll sleep through the whole photo shoot." I tilted my head back and sighed
It was actually a good thing that she would be asleep during the photoshop
I kept caressing her cheek and smiling. "Let's go say bye to daddy." I smiled picking up her car seat
She just looked at me in her car seat
I took her upstairs. "Babe?" I said looking for him
"I'm ready!" He smiled
"Babe.... you have work..." I said
"I'm going in late." He said
"Honey" I sighed, I really wanted this lunch just to be me and Carol and take Bailey along with us. "Whatever.... just, do you have money for lunch?" I asked picking Bailey up again
"Lunch? I thought the picture were first. I'll just meet you guys at he studio do you guys can have some girl time." He said
"No it's fine.... you are going in late anyway. Come on.... we have to get going." I said
"Babe I'll see you cuties later. I love you." He kissed me
"Narvel. We are not just leaving you here when you took the morning off to be with us. No get your stuff. You are coming." I said.
"Okay." He said grabbing his self
We drove to the restaurant and we found Carol, she looked up and smiled when she saw me and then she saw Narvel. "Oh... um, hey" she waved at him a little, she felt uncomfortable. "Maybe I should go, you two can have a nice lunch before the afternoon." She said grabbing her purse
"No no no, I have a business lunch with my boss here. You three have fun." He kissed me and walked over to his boss
I sighed and watched him leave. I closed my eyes and put my head in my hands. "Is everything okay?" Carol asked. "No, nothing is okay. Ever since I've had Bailey... I keep getting these small spouts of dizziness and the feeling of faintness. I've gotten sick a few times and I keep getting wicked nauseous out of the blue. I can't have anything happen to me. I have a newborn daughter to raise." I said
"Have you told Narvel yet?" She asked
"No I haven't and I don't plan on it. That's why I brought him. He knows something is up but he figured that I just needed sometime with you.... but that's not what's wrong. That's why he doesn't mind going over to have lunch with his boss. I brought him so that if something was to happen.... he would be here." I said looking at Bailey
"Do you think something will?" She asked
"I don't know.... I hate this." I said leaning back and rubbing Bays belly again
"I know you do." She said
"What about you? How have you been?" I asked
"I've been pretty good." She said
"Anything new?" I asked pulling Bailey out of her car seat and putting her over my shoulder and rubbing her back.
"Nope not much." She Saudi
"Well... let's see, Miss Bailey loves to eat. She only likes her passy when she is going to sleep... she absolutely hates the hair dryer. She doesn't really care for the swing. She loves to be held and swaddled." I said
"How is her collar bone doing?" She asked
"It's getting better but she wakes up a few times at night just because it hurts" I said
"Poor baby." She said
"Yeah" I pouted
I kissed Bailey cheek
She yawned
I held her close
She closed her eyes
We ordered our food
Bailey fell asleep
She was so so good
Our food came out
Bailey stayed asleep while ate
I kept looking at her to make sure my baby was okay.
Narvel was smiling at us
I saw him across the restaurant
He had amazing news to tell me later
I finished eating and Bailey woke up but didn't cry or anything, she just sat there and looked at me.
"Hi beautiful." I smiled
She yawned and her eyes started to water
"Its okay." I soothed
She started to whimper and her lips quivered
"Shh Shh its okay baby." I soothed
She started to cry for the first time in public.
I put her passy in her mouth
She kept crying and the passy fell out, she didn't want that
When that didn't work, I tried to feed her. she latched on right away
Carol just watch and she was smiling when I looked up. "You really are a great mother." She told me
"Aww thanks carol." I smiled
"Yeah..." she said and looked down at her lap. "I better get going, I'll pay On my way out." She said grabbing her purse
"Are you sure?'" I asked her
"Yeah" she nodded, you could tell there was just so much going through her brain and her mind was racing 24/7 trying to figure out how to make everything work.
"Ill pay, don't worry about it." told her
"No no.... it's fine. We have so much and nothing to give to or no one to give too.... you guys have hospital bills upon hospital bills to pay and only one source of income. With a new baby it's a lot of financial struggle. I have the check." She said
"Carol i appreciate that but i can pay for a lunch.: I said
"Reba I have it." She said sternly
'Okay, thank you." I said
She left and payed for lunch
I walked over to Barvle
He smiled and introduced me to his boss. "James, this is my wife, Reba and under the blanket is my newborn daughter Bailey" he introduced us
"It's very nice to meet you." I smiled
"You too, ill let's you guys get going.... I hope you have a great rest of your day" he smiled shaking both our hands
"Thanks again, for everything." Narvel smiled
"No problem" he nodded. We got in the car and I looked at him. "So?! How'd it go?!" I smiled
"I got the huge pay raise." He smiled
"How much...?" I asked
"Triple." I smiled
"Oh honey! That's great!" I smiled
He kissed me
I kissed him back and smiled
"I love you."I smiled
"I love you" he smiled
I kissed him again
He kissed me and smiled. He pressed his forehead against mine and smiled. "Let's go HAVE our newborn photos taken." He smiled
"Sounds good." I smiled
He smiled and we headed to the photographers house
Bailey was really good in the car
She ended up falling asleep on the way
She's was so so cute
I crawled into the back and placed a passy in her mouth and rubbed her belly.
She stayed asleep the whole time
I smiled and we got to the house
"I'll get the car seat." I said
"Okay, I'll get her bag" he kissed my cheek
"Thanks baby." I said
He nodded and we went inside
Bailey was still asleep
I smiled down at her. We got to know the photographer and then we got started!
She was so happy
We got a lot why'll she was still asleep, then we got a few when she woke up. After we got the ones just of her we got some of me and Bailey and then some of Narvel and Bailey and then some of all three of us
The pictures were turning out amamzinglg
As soon at the pictures were over we head home.
We were all pretty tired
We all fell asleep in bed.
