Next Step

Plumming is places, pears are poured, rebar is in and today we passed our inspection.  Passing is a good thing, but as James explained to me it means we can hurry and pour the cemet before the rains come.  Otherwise we'd wait until next week to pour.  We've got our fingers crossed and hands hard at work to get this step done and overwith. So today the upper level forms were poured.  James left work early to help and then went back to work in the evening, but progress is being made. 

Bath time

It's our fist Bath, Yea!!

Emerson likes the warm water, 

first time round he liked it a little too much and pooped in it. 

We are getting better at changing diapers though.

Changing diapers

He is winking at the girls already.  Emerson is so sweet and calm, and then it comes time to change his diapers.  Any good advice for changing boys diapers, I am all ears.  Without fail I will have the dirty diaper off, and a fresh diaper almost on and  . . . he is peeing again, or pooping.  It's like a fire hydrant out one or the other, but always after dirty one is off.  So I go through about 2 to 3 diapers a changing and 5 to 10 outfits a day.  I know I'll get the hang of it hopefully sooner than later. 

Grandma Came to Visit

James and I Came home from the hospital and My mom flew out to spend a week with us.  Wow Mom it was so great to have you here!!  We counted 10 movies watched during the last week.  It has been so fun just hanging out getting to know Emerson.

New Arrival

Proud Papa

Happy Birthday little guy

Coming to the world at 9.1 lb, 22.5 in. at 1:45 pm Sunday afternoon.

I went to the hospital on Saturday for a routine check up. The nurse did the exam and said I don't think they are going to let you go home = your going to have a baby. So James and I spent Saturday at the hospital getting my body ready for labor. Around 3 am I got some morphine to help with the pain. I was pretty loopy after that. A patosine drip helped the contractions along and around 1:15 I was dilated to 9.5. A few episodes of pushes and James and I are parents. He is beautiful. I think he looks like James. And yes the name is yet to be announced. . .But he is healthy and we're all doing great!!!
