newborn pictures

At a 10 days old, we have professional newborn pictures taken.  We've finally gotten them back and here they are!  Enjoy!

happy boy...

We took this video this morning and got a smile or two...

I think it's super cute...but I guess I may be biased!

all in a day's work...;

We thought we would give you an update on what Chase does all day. We will show you in pictures



So that's pretty much it. We sleep, do tummy time, sleep, hang out with family, sleep, cry, hang out with our cat brothers and stare at mommy and daddy. It's hard being so small!

happy new year...

Happy 2012!

We had a nice New Year, Aunt Lizzy came over and spent the night. We watched a movie, ate a nice dinner and stayed up until midnight. There was even festive attire for the evening.

Happy New Year!

As Aunt Lizzy updated, Chase Adrian is here!  He was born on Dec 23 after 24 hours of induced labor (not so fun) and 45 minutes of pushing (thank god for epidurals).  To be honest, I would go through the 24 hours again in a heartbeat for how smoothly  the pushing went.  Overall, it was a great labor and delivery for such a big baby.  Several nurses were surprised he was not a c section. Didn't they know I'm a superhero?

We stayed in the hospital until Christmas Day and we had a great stay.  The nursing staff was spectacular and really made sure we got to know Chase and how to take care of him.  He stayed wiht us in the room so we were confident in taking him home and were able to sleep the first night we had him at home.  Here are a few shots from the hospital

First, a before shot.  Little do I know what I'm getting myself into at this point!

This was taken the morning we went to the hospital

Already a Chi O supporter thanks to Aunt Lizzy

The first time Scott fed Chase. I've never seen him smile so big.  This is my favorite picture so far.

Merry Christmas!

We think he has my eyes, but other than that, this baby is all Scott!

I would post more right now, but there is a funky smell coming from the baby next to me, so I better go take care of that!  I'll post more at the next middle of the night feeding!



well now what do they do with this blog?

the tot is finally here!

more pictures soon, but if you come out and you already have a natural mohawk and know how to wink, i'm thinking you're pretty awesome. 

the moment we've all been waiting for....

...is tomorrow!

Tomorrow morning we go in for induction.  We have the be at the hospital at 6:30 am and they will start pitocin.  Who knows how long we'll be there, but we're hoping it's fast!  Elizabeth will update the blog when he's here.

Thanks for thinking of us!
