Random Fun, and Kinley is 10 weeks!

I can't believe that Kinley is already ten weeks old, where has the time gone? She is such a joy and has been a really easy baby. She is now 11lbs 8oz, and 24 inches long. She sleeps through the night for the most part (we still have a 4:30 awakening every once in a while). She laughs, and says "AAAGOOO". Her brother and sister love her so much. Kaya says she is a big baby now, it is hard for her to hold her now that she is heavier and wiggly, but she still wants to all the time. Kasen continues to give lots of hugs and kisses and has to know where "little sissy, or Tin-ee" is at all times. I have adjusted much better to three then I thought, I think going from 1-2 was much harder. Kinley just goes with us wherever we go, thank goodness for the bucket seat! I am sure life will change when we can't just haul her around whenever we want, but for now we are loving this phase of life!!

My Girls

I think I have a do over baby, they almost look like the same kid. The only difference is that Kaya's eyes are super blue and Kinley's are dark, other then that they look a lot a like! Kinley has been a blast and we love her so much. She is 7 weeks old and is starting to smile. I looked at Kaya's 1st year calander the other day and noticed that she rolled over from her tummy to back at two months and I think Kinley has only had tummy time twice. I want her to stay a baby!!!!!

Kaya 2 Months

Kinley 6 Weeks

Kaya 4 Weeks

Kinley 5 Weeks

And then there was Kasen :) Two Months. He and Kinley have the same eyes

My Amazing Family!

I have to write and brag about how wonderful my Family is! My dad, sister Tracy and her son Gabe. Aunt Marsha, cousin Tina and two of her kids Kamree and Averee. Aunt Mindy and my cousin Kira all came out to see the baby (My sis Ton lives here, but did a ton too). For a week I literally did nothing for myself. They cooked dinner, cleaned my house, did my laundry, dressed and bathed my kids, stayed up at night with Kinley while I slept, gave me back rubs and pedicures amongst many other things. They are all truly amazing and blessed Devin and I so much! I am way to undeserving, but so lucky to have them all in my life! Thank you all SOOOOO much!

I also need to give a HUGE Thank you to my Mother-in-law who has done more then I can even comprehend for us! She watched Kaya and Kasen for three days, it was great to know they were in good hands and enjoying themselves while we were in the hospital. It also allowed Dev to be there with me the whole time. She has made us countless dinners, continues to take both or one of the kids to give me a break. Kaya and Kasen absolutley love her! Agains we are so blessed!

Thank you also for all my friends here in The Springs who brought over dinner the week before everybody got here, it was much enjoyed and appreciated!

Here as some new pictures of Kinley and Family. I can't believe she is one month already!

McKinley Avis Dyar

I am finally sitting down to update everyone on our new little girl, and so that the family can see some pics of her. We had Kinley on April 9, at 7:41a.m. She was 7 lbs 8 oz and 20 inches long.

Some have asked for the labor update, so if you don't want to hear about it feel free to just scroll down to look at the pictures.

I started getting random contractions at about 6:00 that night which is very different from my other two little ones. They kept going all night, again pretty far apart, we finally called my mother-in-law at 4:00a.m. to come over and stay with the kids. At that point my contractions were about 5-8 minutes apart (Kasen came super fast once I was dilated to a six so I didn't want to chance having this one in the car). We got to the hospital at 4:30, I was dilated to a 5. 5:00 we got settled into our room, ready to start doing our hypno-birth and get in the zone. We realized at that point all of our music and relaxation stuff did not sink to the i-pod! Not cool, I really wanted to do this without drugs and that is all I had practiced. After a bit of a panic, we started to play other music and did our best to do it on our own. Dev and my sis were awesome supporters! It truly was an amazing experience. The next 2 hours were in a complete state of relaxation, I felt as if I was there alone with God and He was coaching me, giving me little whispers the whole time. I kept saying "I can do anything through Christ" He made me to to this. As the contractions got stronger, the more controlled I and calm I felt. Then baby was ready, it was time to push, I didn't need anybody to tell it was time, my body knew it. I woke from my relaxed state and went into business mode. Three pushes later, baby Kinley joined our world. It was truly a blessed and amazing experience! We love her so much already.

Here a a few pics of our first few days.

Random times at the Dyars

I realize it has been a while since my last post so I thought I would just post some pictures of the last few months.

Valentine Party and Kaya's preschool


Anniversary dinner at home


Brother and Sissy time


St. Patty's Day (the yellow stuff is suppose to be pots of gold) We went to a fun parade too, but I forgot my camera


Dad rented a mini excavator to start landscaping our yard, it was quite fun for the kids to ride on. Especially Kasen!
