The prince has come

Well, Our little baby boy has arrived! Jace came to us at 7:06 on June 12th 2008. I was in labor for 31 hours and in the end it was all worth it. He had a serious cone head when he was born, and when they placed him on my chest I was pretty sure they had given me some asian baby. Now everything has reshaped and he is absolutely adorable. He has amazing skin and the cutest little smile. Mike and I are still struggling to find our features on him. So far we had decided that he has Mikes hair line and my jaw line. Other than that we will just have to wait and see! So now I spend all my time nursing and changing diapers. Today I actually took a shower and did my makeup and went out of the house... that felt so good!!! He went to the doctor for his newborn appt. and they said that he had lost 12 Oz. by the time I went back the next week he had gained almost a pound (the goal was 4 oz.). So needless to say he is a hungry boy. Before I know it I will have a little rolley-polley!

He can come now


I have the coolest Husband ever! Mike decided several months ago that that he wanted to build a craddle for our new little baby boy. He came up with a design - Built the craddle - made the craddle Mattress from scratch and even made fitted sheets !!! HOW COOL IS THAT!!! So that was our landmark. Baby Jace was not allowed to come unti this craddle was finnished, because we needed a place for him to sleep in our room. So now its done and we are just waiting for him to make his grand entrance. The craddle sits on my side of the bed just waiting to be rocked.
