My First Grand Daughter Makes a Unexpected Entrance

We were expecting our little bundle of joy the week of Feb 10-14th 2009. Unfortunately my dear baby (Brittany) had to be induced due to our little bundle of love not receiving enough nutrients via the placenta. Our little girl was only weighing 4#'s at 37 weeks gestation showing that my daughter should be due around March 10th. My Brittany confirmed her dates where correct and the Ultrasounds were compared hence the need to be induced as Mommie knew best...

We headed off to the hospital both of my daughters (mommie to be and my youngest), we were admitted on 1/20 at 1pm... We were hoping to have a Inaugration Day Baby...

Brittany handled her labor well with I has her coach (as I am a trained labor/delivery doula) she did absolutely wonderful No SCREAMING or acting out. At 3:19pm 1/21/09 she delivered Chavea Entenye Coyle-Hodges a beautiful little might I add tiny little girl whom I call my Tinker Bell...as for me I am now SweetieGrams...not ready to be called Grandmom just yet though I am sure I will admire this term of endearment later. LOL

Tinker Bell (Chavea) came in weighing 4#'s 1oz. 18 inches... she now weighs 3#'s 13oz she has spent her first 48 hours in intensive care, she is now in continued care as she is a little jaundice hopefully she will be able to come home by weeks end. She is doing well, eating and pooping she's a strong little girl..Thanks God there are no major worries....Send Prayers for our Baby Girl... Thanks

Truly Three Months 2nd Re-Tightening

Happy New Year, All....I spent the New Year alone Mediating and Praying by choice, I needed some reflection time and what better time is there to reflect then ending one year and beginning another by the Grace of The Holy Spirit.

My three month anniversary is actually Jan 6th & 7th, just a few days away. This is my second re-tightening you know the 1st one thats not included in the SisterLock package.. hahaha. Fortunately I have a very gracious SL Consultant God Blessed me with Ms. Laura of Agapelocs blogspot. It took 6 hrs, I had quite a bit of fused locks in the back that Ms. Laura had to seperate...Guess I didn't do such a good job seperating after coloring...Thanks again to you Ms. Laura for not draining a Sista's pocket and taking your time to make my babies look Good!!!1

It's amazing how many people stop to take a look, when I am in Ms. Laura's chair in the Salon where she currently works. There was a lady there on this day who kind of just watched from behind, slowly she began to ask questions and another Sista walked by realizing Ms. Laura was doing SL's...this young lady was familiar with SL's as she had worn traditional locks in the past. Back to the previous Lady, she seemed very interested so Ms. Laura and I began to tell her about my journey starting with 2 inches of hair how much my hair has grown in less then 3 months.

Ms. Lady seems like she will be taking a journey to SL's website and viewing the many Bloggers journeys with SL's. She was the first person who actually asked to feel my hair while getting it done in the salon, which I did not mind one bit. If it means helping a Sista stop the LYE (Perming)I am there to assist.

Now onto my older sister who wants locks badly, of course money is the issue with SL's. My sister is a self taught braider who micro braids her own hair. I suggested to her why not start braidlocks/micro braidlocks.....Again bless her heart she asked me "what did your SL consultant put on your hair to lock it" Again I told her "Nothing" "Notta" mind you my Sis has asked me this every month since I got SL's locks....Her computer is down...I can't wait til she gets it running or another one so she can research all the sites I have given her....I swear if she ask me again what was put on my hair (chemical) one more time I told her I am taking the next plane smoking to Florida,and strangle her...LMAO


One more amazing thing, I guess my man has been paying more attention to my journey then I realized. I noticed New Years Eve he kept running his fingers through my locks, I just let the man play to his hearts content.... (I know TMI)As I was putting on my lip gloss (you know it was popping) ok back to adult life...LOL I walked pass my Sweetie and for the first time since getting my SL's he said..."Your hair looks good Baby"....I was like OMG...shocked.

Here's Angel Locs Truly Three Months, they are getting some length I think I need to start training them...any suggestions?
