Welcome to the WORLD…..

baby new

I cannot believe that after 9 hours of labor, 20 units of pitocin, NO medicine (All natural), and 1 push we finally introduced our baby into this world!!

This morning when I went into my Doctors appointment at 37 weeks I had my ultrasound and then a doctor visit.  At first the ultrasound showed that the baby was weighing approximately 8 lb 8 oz.  I was definitely ok with that, because Brielle was measuring 10 pounds and when she was born she barley weighed 8.

During the visit with the doctor, he stripped my membranes, and then stated that I was measuring 4 cm and that he wanted to send me over to the hospital to be admitted and have the baby.

I was so nervous going into another all natural birth again, yet so excited.  I cannot believe I endured all that pain all over again (for my last time) and got the biggest surprise/reward ever!

A HEALTHY BABY BOY!!!

We are SO proud to introduce our handsome son Malachi Andreas Johnson born at 9:22p.m. weighing 7 pounds 15 oz. and measuring 19 1/4 inches long.

He is HEALTHY, with a nasal bone and a perfectly round head.  We are so so thankful God gave us a healthy baby boy, and I know there will be many more pictures in the future!!

Thank you ALL for your sweet prayers and kind messages throughout my delivery!

LOVE YOU ALL!

Welcome to my blog! :)

A little while back, I knew I had to make a change from my old blog to try to grow myself into this blogging world! I never thought I would enjoy writing (because let me tell you in school, English was definitely one of my least favorite subjects!) and reading as much as I do now as an adult, and I truly found that documenting important life events and just things that I probably won’t remember, sounded like a fun opportunity and that’s when I decided to start my blog last year!

There are so many things that I still don’t understand and am trying to figure out about this community, but so far, everyone has been welcoming me with open arms and my questions have generally been answered pretty quickly.

Here is a little bit about me.  My name is Sheridan Johnson, I am a wife to my sweet husband Shane, a follower to Jesus Christ, a mom to three precious kids, and I am also an RN.  I love to blog about the journeys and struggles that have happened in my own life, but also so many of the joyous moments as well!

A few facts about me is that I LOVE the color pink. I mean, it’s kind of a weird obsession, but I honestly love all the shades of pink (thank you God for blessing us with two sweet girls).  I was never really a coffee drinker growing up (actually if you ask anyone who knew me, they would tell you how much I hated the smell), but something happened during nursing school with all of the late nights/early mornings that I just started to enjoy the taste (ok, well with a LOT of creamer) and I like to have a nice warm cup of coffee in the mornings when I can.  I work as an RN  and have two jobs, one in the nursing home and one in the pediatric field (both sides of the spectrum and really so many similarities).  I would really say that I used to LOVE going out and meeting people, but as I have grown up, I really think I take on a more of a introvert personality and lifestyle and just stick to the people that I know and love to spend time with now.  I absolutely strongly dislike to drive, but I have to commute weekly to my pediatric home health job in Austin, Tx, which is where I grew up and I am from, but I moved to be with my husband in the small town of Yoakum, Tx.

I just wanted to also say a huge WELCOME to all of my new followers, and the old ones that are still here, sticking around and reading my blogs, I just wanted to say thank you and I hope you all stick around for the ride! 🙂 (You can also follow me on instagram, facebook, and pinterest with the links on my page)
