McCarthy pics

something witty

hello family.  so im sorry to disappoint yall but i still dont have nay new pictures.  We cant find the freaking cord to hook the camera up to the computer.  So tomorrow i will take the camera to work with me and use moms card reader to put some on.  

This weekend has been alot of fun.  Jordan and Mac and I all went to church today.  It was the first time for mac so that was cool.  He slept all the way until the end and then J jad to take him in back and feed him.  We gave him his first bottle today and he took it without fussing a bit.  So that was awesome, J is goign to start pumping during the day and then il be able to take one of the night feedings which will help her out a ton.  

We are both so stinking excited to come out to Illinois, we are so pumped to see everyone and get to introduce mac to everybody.  Ok well im gonna go to bed now but il update tomorrow with pictures i promise.  Mac has changed so much, his face is rounding out and he is slowly looking more and more like me, haha.  ok im out

tired....

so i realize its terribly cliche for the father of a newborn to say hes too tired to post, but frankly my dear, i dont give a damn.  

its been a very long week and i really am so tired im quickly becoming my father in that i cant stay awake for anything over the halfway point of a movie.  Quite literally the turning point, no matter how exciting acts as an instant sedative and im out.  So im going to go to bed right now and post more tomorrow, along with pics because right now i cant find our card reader so i cant put any new pics on, however i can put some older ones of my mom and dad while they were here.

haha

McCarthy Isaiah Lyons

So last night Jordan had an appointment to get a C section done and the doctor told us that her fluid level was exceptionally low and that we needed to go to the hospital for further review. We got to the hospital and the staff informed us that due to the low ammount of fluid and given Jordans bicarnate uterus, they recomended doing a C-section that night. So we were moved toa preparation room and told that it would be between 8 and 12 hrs from then. An hour and a half later they told us that it was bumped up due to a crowded hospital that night and we would more likely be going in about 2 hrs. THEN the doctor came practically running into the room and told us that it had been moved up again and would be right then. After I regained consciousness, having passed out from surprise and nervousness, I was suited up in my space paintball suit and booties and rushwed into the O.R. Joran did amazingly, she didnt feel a thing and even laughed a few times during the procedure at the look on my face. I was scared out of my mind. Mac was born at 8:23 and im proud to say taht as his first act on earth, he chose to urinate all down the gown of one of the nurses. ITo say i was proud would be a durastic understatement. Anyway he weighed 6 lbs 12 oz and was 18 1/2 inches long. It is now friday and both he and Jordan are doing amazingly well, they wil have to remain in the hospital for at least another 2 days but as far as everything is goign right now it is looking like he will not need to stay there any longer than that.

anyway who wants to call can call my cell at 13097068349

please keep praying, much love


here are a few pics


















we will post some more later but i thought you all would like to at least see these

baby update

I dont think ive written about the baby in a while and now seems as good a time as any.
We had a checkup this last monday and we found out that the baby is still sitting breech but because of jordans uterus (which is bicornate, meaning its heart shape with a wall down the middle, giving the baby half the room it needs) the doctors dont think he will have enough room to turn himself right. Also her amniotic fluid levels are low and so the doctor scheduled another checkup and sonogram for next week (tuesday) and if the levels arent up at all then they will possibly have to schedule an emergency C-Section. So i could possibly be a dad in 4 days, scary.

Anyway Jordan is consistently more sore than she has been at any other point in her pregnancy. Shes really ok with the idea of a C-section, the doctor told us from day one that with her condition it was a strong possibility. So anyway if everyone could pray for that, that everything would go smoothly and according to Gods will.

Im really tired today, had a long frustrating day yesterday but im ok now. We bought a used saturn from a local dealership, low miles, good mpg all that, so thats good. Now i have a car payment for the first time in my life. Crazy. So i should probably go back to work. Il talk to yall later.

quote from last nights bible study
"Trials and hardships are never fun or easy but they ALWAYS increase our trust in God" i liked that
