Owens BIG Blowout...

Owen had his first BIG blowout... and it happened to be right before dinner (Yummy). So he got his first "real" bath. His umbilical cord just fell off this morning so he could have a real bath instead of a sponge bath. Not only did we have a big blow out, the tub was leaking for some odd reason and we had water all over the bathroom and me. Oh, the joys of being a parent. Were loving every minute of it. Sorry, there were no pictures of bath time since we had our hands full...

Here are a few more pictures of our little man.

Baby Owen has Arrived...

Baby Owen has arrived. He is a beautiful 7 lb 1.9 oz boy. I started having contractions on Tuesday at work and on Wednesday I called in to work to tell them I was having contractions and was going to stay home. At 2:30 we went in to the doctor to be evaluated because my contractions were 5-7 minutes apart. We had our evaluation and my water was about to burst and I was 4 cm dialated so they brought us up the the Maternity ward and at 9:39 p.m. he arrived. I had an epideral but it didnt work so they gave me another one (thank GOD). After only 15 minutes of pushing, he was born. We are both doing really good.

Owens Nursery

The long awaited pictures have arrived. We got Owens nursery all set up and ready to go. I am counting down the days. I am feeling pretty good still. Sleeping is a challenge but I think that's your body's way of preparing you for no sleep once he arrives. Between braxton hicks and heartburn, oh, and having to go to the bathroom every hour I'm up more than I'm sleeping. Work threw me a shower and bought us the entire nursery set decor and more. My family shower was also really nice. I got everything I needed and then some. Eric and I used shower money to puschase a Pack n' Play and a swing for Owen since we did not receive them.
