Introducing...

I'm late

Very very late to this post

But he is here!  Theodore is here!

Theodore Alexander came screaming into the world April 23, 2013 (37 weeks and 5 days gestation) at 10:14pm. 

7lbs 5oz and 52 inches of pure love

 Just born
 
 Not even 24 hours on the outside.. and he's pooped!


 Unbelievable love

 April 25th - going home!
 "guys, I was SO READY!"

 We talk a lot
 
I worry a lot
 
But he always reminds me...
 
"What's the big deal? Life ain't so bad..."
 
And I'm in love, all over again

  3. He's here and alive and so beautiful! Love his middle name that is his brother's... congratulations, you deserve every happy moment, even though I know all too well some of the sadness that goes along with it. The babies we lost remind us every second to revel in the joyous moments we've been given.

  4. 52 inches would be record breaking! (and very painful for momma - ha).

    Oh he is GORGEOUS - Does he look like his brother?

    I'm beyond thrilled for you guys and this new chapter

    2. And yes, he looks lik his brother...but not in an identical way, but a sibling way. It broke my heart, and gave me relief at the same time. It's been such a mix of so much joy, and so much heavy stuff.

      I'm over the moon that I have 2 beautiful boys. So so thankful to have every bit of love they brought to my life. They BRING to my life. <3
