I went into labor on Sunday night and Monday morning at 11:04 am Jayce made his debut into the world. I had to push only one time..... so it was great for me (and he had no cone head either.)
So things are good. He's healthy and for the most part a happy baby. He's uber cute with those fabulous chubby cheeks. Having him makes me realize how much I NEEDED another baby. (yes...needed) And being that the kids are on summer break, I don't get to ease into the whole 4 kid thing. Rick left me the other day to go to the store and I had all of them. It was good- pretty funny actually. Thing is, I'm handling 4 A LOT better than I did with 3.
I'm feeling great! Just not being pregnant anymore is wonderful and being that I can fit into some of my non-prego shirts makes me feel so much better. It's been nice to just rest and not worry about things. (even though it won't last much longer)
Anyway- Here's the specs and some pics. The pics of Jayce look funky- his head isn't THAT deformed. it's not deformed at all. guess i just had the wrong angle. But he is just so cute- I love him. Guess i'll keep him around....... :)-

7 lb 2 oz
18.5 in long
(yes... he's my biggest baby and even came 3 weeks early!)
And here's a few funnies:
Kids came to visit in the hospital and kayleb was so excited. He wrote his name on a napkin and when he first saw Jayce, he walked up to him and holds the napkin up and says "Hi baby Jayce. I'm Kayleb. see.... here's my name. K A Y L E B" It was so stinkin cute. I got a pic of it. :)
Then the proud oldest sister holding him for the first time. She is at my feet all day long saying "mom... i washed my hands, can i hold him?" "mom.. can i touch his head?" "mom... I'll feed him if you want me to."
She's so helpful- it will be really nice once we move.
Then the proud papa. this pic is smooshed for some reason..... but you get a better idea of how round baby really is.
And this cake.... the hospital made it and gave it to us. How cool is that? and it is SO YUMMY!
anyway...... there he is... all perfect and wonderful. I'll post more later when I get around to it. :)
