Our little boy

We are truly in love with our new little boy. Andrew is the perfect addition to our family. I thought I was never going to stop been pregnant and on bed rest at the same time, but here we are, already 1 week after our Andrew decided to make his appearance into this world.
The C-section went smoothly. Andrew was born to the tune of "Can't buy me love" from the Beatles, . It was kind of funny and a great touch Andrew was born with all that spiked up hair. PERFECT for the occasion!
AD had to have a lot of tests done to him, because he was considered preemie. The poor boy was poked so many times. It was really sad to see both of his hands with IVs. He is such a tough little boy.
I think no one is more thrilled that AD came earlier than Julia. My goodness she has been waiting for this moment for the longest time and I am glad that my kids get to have their mommy back, or almost. I've felt so bad while been on bed rest for not been able to be 100% for my kids.
Have you ever seen a prouder daddy. I love you all

We are just so happy that the waiting is over and that we can just enjoy the fruit of our labors.

Julia and Josh had fun coming to see mommy and the baby at the hospital, but I think they enjoyed playing around the room better.
I have to say they were thrilled to have some wrist bands put on them that said big brother and sister.

The most exciting part was driving home with all three of our kids in the car. Andrew is so little he barely fits on the car seat. He didn't like been strapped into that seat at all.


Our Family feels a little more complete now with our little AD's arrival.

That picture of him in the car seat is so funny and sad at the same time. He is so incredibly small and precious! Love him!
