Team Woodard: ONE MONTH

ONE MONTH

Campbell was one month on July 3rd. He had to go visit Dr. Slusher again. We love going to the doctor…mainly because I want to know his stats. So here they are.

Weight: 9 lbs. (WOW…he jumped from the 10th percentile to the 25th in three weeks! AWESOME!)

Length: 22.25 inches

Head Circumference: 36 cm.

Dr. Slusher did find a hernia in his belly button just like Trigger. Campbell also has a heart murmur that was discovered when he was in the hospital. He went to see Dr. King (pediatric cardiologist). He said it was what Trigger has: A hole in his heart. All babies have a hole when they are born but most close up almost immediately. Since Campbell’s didn’t close up, we will have to continue to see Dr. King. Our next appt is in October.

He is now ONLY breastfeeding and ONLY gets a bottle if I have to go somewhere. That has only happened a few times! July 3rd happened to be a Saturday and we were just hanging out as a family so I decided to snap a few pictures.

Okay..so as most of you know, Trigger has a few things he is obsessed with right now. 1. RED TRUCKS 2. Woody (Toy Story…and this has nothing to do with the new movie because he doesn’t even know about it) 3. Cars (the movie)

Trigger loves his little brother but we have to really watch him because he still doesn’t understand that he can’t pull on Campbell’s limbs or poke out his eyes. This makes things very difficult on me because I can’t just put Campbell down on a quilt to have tummy time or just to rest while I got things accomplished around the house (like I did with Trigger). If I don’t watch closely, this is what happens and believe me, driving a truck on Campbell is the LEAST of my concerns! :) Poor Campbell!!

LOOK at that guilty face…he is JUST waiting on me to tell him to stop. That little TOOT…what are we going to do with him??

Brothers watching Cars together. Soooo sweet!

Another concern…body slamming!

Love this one!

Still driving the red truck as close as he can to Campbell…

And forgetting the rule…

Trigger still likes to hold Campbell…for about two seconds!

Daddy and Campbell

Momma and her boys!

Happy ONE MONTH, Campbell!!!

The Woodards

My name is Garson Woodard. I'm a wife to Matt. He is the most incredible husband a girl could ask for. We met in Kindergarten at Cedar Creek (the school we attended for 13 years). Matt and I started dating our Jr. year in high school and dated for 6 years. We got married on June 26, 2004. I am so thankful that God brought us together! I am a mother to Trigger, Campbell, and Larkin. We worked hard to have all of them. After 2 miscarriages, two years after trying to get pregnant, a 2 week hospital stay, and a short (didn't seem short at the time) NICU stay, we brought home our first precious miracle: Trigger! He was born on July 29, 2008. Trigger's completely spoiled rotten! He is full of personality and definitely shows some of the same tenacity that his namesake had!

With our second child, Campbell, we made it to 38 weeks. He was born on June 3, 2010. He still had to stay in the NICU for 5 days for breathing issues. Campbell is absolutely precious..shy but such a little clown. I can't wait to watch our two boys which are 22 months apart) grow up together. I know they are going to fight constantly but be BEST of friends at the same time!

I just thought my boys were our miracles...and they are...but, at the end of May 2011, Matt and I found out that we were expecting the biggest surprise of our life. We were having baby #3 after being told we could never get pregnant on our own. AND, to add to the excitement, we were having a GIRL. After dealing with my medical issues, a two vessel cord, and IUGR, Larkin was born on January 6, 2012. She came here ruling the roost and I am sure that is not going to change anytime soon.

After what seemed like forever thinking that I would not have any children, God has blessed me with three beautiful babies all within 3.5 years.

After having Campbell, Matt and I decided I would become a stay-at-home mom. In alot of ways it is more difficult than teaching because I am with OUR children all day...and OUR children don't seem to listen like my students would. HOW DOES THAT WORK? Haha! Seriously though, it is the BEST job in the world and I feel very blessed to be able to be home to witness each and every minute of our boys' lives!

I started this blog when we found out we were pregnant with Trigger and have continued to document our crazy lives with a toddler and a baby since I don't have time to scrapbook anymore. Thanks for stopping by and I hope you visit again!
