Laney is 5 today!!!

Well as you can see I went a little crazy on the pictures of Laney today but it has been five years and a lot happens. I am a little upset that I don't have any baby pics of Laney cause she was a dang cute baby. Anyway alot of you know about the year that Laney was born but some of you don't so I thought I would tell the story of this sweet girl. Brant and I had just bought our first house when we found out we were pregnant, we had been married for only 4 months. We were really excited until I started vomiting about 14 times a day. I was diagnosised with hyperemisis which just means you vomit alot. I was told that it would probably go away after the first trimester. well it didn't I had a picline put into my arm and had to have iv treatments for the whole 9months up until I had her. While this was going my dad was going into kidney failure and Brant and I were living with them because I couldn't stay in our house because it had a smell that made my nausea worse. So we were living with them and my parents were going down to SLC in october for the transplant my mom would be donating her kidney to my dad. Well my dad had his kidney's taken out cause they were so large do to the cists on them. He was put on Dialysis until the transplant. Everyday my dad and I would lay on the couches and complain to one another how bad the other one felt that day. My parents are amazing people and to watch them go through what they did was amazing. I had the opportunity to go down and stay with them while they had the transplant along with my sister. I was blessed while I was down there that I had no problems. On December 28 2004 at 3:52 p.m. Laney Nikelle Sautter was born. I though for sure things would be a great after that. Well Laney decided to take a breath when she came out and had to be put in the NICU for 3 days. All the nurses kept telling me she was a premie baby but she was 5 days late and weighed 6 lbs 10oz so they kept her in one day longer. I was so emotional due to the fact I had just had a baby and that she was the first one. When we brought her home FINALLY she was the most precious baby. She never cried and she slept through the night at 4 months old. Laney is a wonderful big sister always wanting to help and do things for me. She is so dany smart probably too smart for her own good. I love you Laney!!
