Why I haven’t blogged for three whole weeks:
After five relatively uneventful and natural births, our 10# 1oz sweetheart landed me in the operating room. He was delivered by cesarean section at 1:04pm on September 27, 20+ hours after days of sporadic contractions finally became regular and 12+ hours after my water broke at home. I’ve had big babies before but this labor was like nothing I’ve ever experienced. Surgery wasn’t my first (or second or third) choice, but I was exhausted from my body’s lack of cooperation and his heartrate was giving cause for concern.
The big kids were all thrilled to meet their new baby brother. . .
. . .including the Princess, once she had shed a few private tears over having yet another baby brother.
Good job Princess! Aside from the fact that he’s very cute and cuddly right now, you don’t have to share the title
Glad to see you both home safe and that he fits in his Moses basket. Love and prayers
congrats!!! i was just thinking about you this morning, wondering when we would see a photo.
he’s a cutie! take your time and heal well.
Congratulations!
I’ve been checking every single day. Multiple times. Now, if you could just get that new baby smell to come across the world wide web…
Good to finally see pictures.
