He's Here!!


I'll put down the details sometime soon... but for now I'll just share some pictures of our sweet, cuddly, little Tommy. He was born on Saturday, the 2nd, at 3:12p. Weighing in at 8lbs 13oz and measuring 22 inches long, he is definitely a healthy baby.



We went back and forth on his name - and back and forth - finally settling on Thomas Owen.






His head was already too big for their little hats! It's sliding off as we are gazing at him...






They rounded his weight up to make it a whopping 8lbs 13 oz.






Happy daddy. And, if you notice: I'm sleeping. :-)






Tommy is feeling like sleep is a good idea, too.





Audrey was my AWESOME nurse who helped me through 12 of my 15 hours of labor. My hero. I would be very ungrateful if I didn't mention my other heros: Pete, my mom, Sarah and Sue.






Jack was so stinkin' cute with Tommy. He was very excited to see me and his "baby bruder".






Jack took advantage of the nice T.V. view from the bed.






Then Jack asked to hold Tommy. He loved to get up close and look at his face. I wonder if he thought he was looking in a mirror, cuz they look so much alike!






I love this cheesy snicker face!






My attempt at fancy photography.






And this picture pretty much sums up the weekend: exhausted but satisfied.


We LOVE you so much, Tommy!
