Updates

So quite a bit has happened since we last blogged.

First, baby showers...we had two: one back home and one here in Annapolis.  They were both lovely, and everyone was so generous!

Both grandmothers to be.

Both aunts to be.

One of the hostesses and my best friend.

The shower at Annapolis was a gender reveal, and we revealed through the cake.  When I cut into it, there was blue icing.  A little boy!

Yeah, I got that big...

But then, we went in for the 40 week appointment, and they sent us over to the hospital to get induced.  They started the pitocin at 7:30 PM.  My water broke at 11:40 PM.  2:06 AM, we had a baby!

Minutes after he was born.

This was the day he was born - we were both exhausted!

When he was almost 24 hours old, he was taken to the NICU.  This is him with his IV.  I felt so bad seeing him like this.

Mommy coming to visit him in the NICU.

This was after his IV was taken out, but he was still in the NICU.

Finally home!

...With a little sleep in his eye...


So now, there are five of us.  Two dogs and a little boy. 

Yesterday was his two week appointment, and he's doing great.  He's a pound heavier than his birth weight, so he's packing it on nicely.  He's still getting fussy at times, but overall, each day gets a little better....and we get a little more sleep!
