I can't believe he's finally here. Our little boy we've been waiting for nine months and beyond finally arrived on Friday, April 27, weighing in at 8 lbs. 3 oz. and 22 inches long. We had an interesting delivery experience, but our little boy is healthy and beautiful.
The day began with a scheduled induction at 10:30 am. Labor progressed quickly and before we knew it, he was ready to make his appearance. But, there was one little problem...his hand(which was holding the ambilical cord) was coming out first instead of his head. Instead of being a quick delivery, I had to push hard for over an hour with two doctors trying to reposition the little guy. Finally, he arrived and Billy and I were in love...he's a dream.
Anna came to meet Baby Dex at the hospital with Gaga and Bapa. She was a little freaked out at the sight of her mom in a hospital bed with IVs, but she was immediately amazing with Dex. She has continued to be such a wonderful big sister...helping and loving him every step of the way.
We're certainly still adjusting to the new schedule and life with two kids, but we couldn't be happier and feel more blessed. We have two beautiful children that we absolutely adore. Dex is a great baby, sleeping and eating like a dream, and Anna is amazing with him. We are truly blessed in every way. I can't wait foe what the future holds. But until then, I'm going to try to enjoy every second of these precious times with my toddler and infant.
I've posted a couple of initial photos, but many more are to come...
