Ty’s First Email

Keefer — Fri, 19 Feb 2010 21:15:44 +0000

So, having two parents who are on the computers a lot, Tyler has picked up the action of typing away at the computer.

Sitting on Daddy’s lap just now, he composed his first email:

We need to capture a video of him doing it. It’s a lot cuter than the contents he’s produced.

Tummy Time!

Tyler is Here!

Keefer — Fri, 18 Sep 2009 03:23:51 +0000

Tyler Andrew Keefer was born this morning at 6:40am, weighing in at 7 pounds, 12 ounces, and measuring 21″ long.

He seems very content and we’re so proud, excited and satisfied on his strong and healthy arrival on this great day — September 17, 2009.

More details and posts to come, but in the meantime, thanks for eveyone’s messages, calls and visits!

Any Day Now…

ajkeefer — Wed, 16 Sep 2009 18:28:11 +0000

So today’s appointment was an exciting one AND one we have both been anticipating for some time now. I’ve dilated to 4cm and the doctor couldn’t believe I wasn’t already in labor and/or that Tyler wasn’t already here-given my progression and current condition. She said, “my water was about to break at any moment and it was very close…”, so we’re hoping in the next few days we’ll have our little man here!

If he doesn’t decide to come on his own, they’ve set a induction date of September 23rd.

Any day now…we begin to count the hours…

Another Appointment, Another Week Closer

ajkeefer — Wed, 09 Sep 2009 19:20:15 +0000

So we just another weekly check-up appointment. Like so many appointments before, this was another great visit. I have dilated to 3cm, 75% effaced and Tyler is measuring within normal ranges. The doctor said Tyler is approximately 7.5-8lbs. I was given the flu shot, which is very important and thus Tyler is also protected once he’s here – critical as we approach the winter season.

She also said it was unlikely for him to go past the due date… T-minus 9 days!

National Geographic – In the Womb

Keefer — Tue, 08 Sep 2009 01:30:10 +0000

We just finished watching a great National Geographic produced documentary called “In the Womb.” The 90 minute program utilizes a combination of 3-D and 4-D ultrasound images, along with some amazing and lifelike computer graphic simulations and visualizations. I highly recommend buying or renting the DVD for anyone who has or is having kids. The visuals and information is pretty breathtaking, unbelievable and informative. Amazon link is below.

Moving Ever Closer to Tyler’s Arrival

ajkeefer — Fri, 28 Aug 2009 15:14:11 +0000

Wednesday afternoon we had yet another bi-monthly check-up with typical checks of urine, blood pressure, weight, and blood work. All tests and checks were great. We also learned that I was 2 centimeters dilated and effacing (or thinning) has begun, which is just further confirmation we are getting closer to Tyler’s arrival.

I still feel great with occasional back pain or acid reflux. I know we’re both ready to meet our son and begin our journey as a Mommy and Daddy – a life changing role that we are both excited about and have anticipated for a very long time.

We’ve got the house ready, most of the essentials bought, house has already undergone the childproof transformation and I’ve been “nesting” for a few months now…

Our appointments have now increased to once a week, so we should have another update soon!

T-minus 21 days and counting to the due date.
