Day 2
Nana and Papa watched our older boys while we were in the hospital (THANK YOU !!!). The morning after James was born Nana brought our boys up to visit again. It was nice because they were really able to visit with their brother without so many people. Isaac was much more receptive and interested in the baby this time.
Later that night Uncle Kevin, Aunt Gwyn, and cousin Elijah came to visit. I have a feeling that these guys are going to be trouble later !
JAMES !!

8lb 10oz
21 inch
After what seemed like a never ending pregnancy a healthy baby James joined our family 3 days before his due date. I had been having fairly regular contractions for several weeks and was dilated to 3 cm when I saw my Dr on Feb 21st. Since the baby was measuring over 8lbs on the ultrasound and my blood work was showing more antibody development we decided to schedule an induction for the next morning. Aaron & I arrived at the hospital at 8am and the induction started at about 9:30. At noon I decided to get an epidural since the contractions were getting pretty painful. I had relief from the pain for about 30 min and then I started to feel the contractions again. About 20 min and 2 pushes later James arrived before any doctors were able to make it into the room (thank goodness for nurses !). We were able to keep the baby in the room with us which was amazing!
Pre Delivery (pre REALLY painful contractions)
What a BIG boy !

Cute little toes :)
Actually getting to hold our baby right after delivery - it was awesome !!
What a cutie !
Meeting a VERY excited big brother (Isaac was a little overwhelmed by the whole thing and didn't want to hold the baby right away)
A happy Daddy :)

First Day of Preschool
Aiden started preschool last week. I was a bit nervous since he has been out of daycare for so long but he did great ! He went running into the classroom without hesitation and not a tear was shed... at least not by Aiden :)
At home before we left. He is a BIG fan of his dino backpack !
Walking in just like the big kids.

Proud mom (I can't believe I have a preschooler!)
