Going home....
Playing a little catch up, since these are all pictures of the day we brought Jack home and yesterday he was one week old, but that's ok! We got to leave the hospital around noon on Saturday. Chuck was supposed to run the mini marathon that morning but considering the weather wasn't all that promising and the fact that he was sleeping on a pretty uncomfortable couch he opted out of the mini this year. I figure its better that way since I wasn't running it with him and we usually do that one together!!
Anyways, Grammy brought Hannah over to the hospital around the time we were going to leave so Hannah, Jack, Daddy and I could all go home together. Jack looked great when we left the hospital, he weighed in at 7 lbs 8 oz, so he hadn't lost all that much weight and his color was good. Lots of pictures below....
Jack William has arrived....
Jack William Dodge has arrived and he is amazing! He was born at 6:24 am on Thursday May 5, 2011 and he is perfect! He weighed in at a whopping 8 pounds and was 21 inches long.
Labor was quick, we were checked into the hospital at 5:30 am, and he was laying on top of me while Chuck was cutting the umbilical cord at 6:24 am!! Needless to say, this didn't allow any time to make things comfortable, Chuck and I still can't believe how quickly everything happened!
We are doing great, I am tired but feel good, Jack is working on the whole sleeping thing but already nursing like a champ so we are very happy about that!
As soon as we got settled we had the most important visitor of all...the new Big Sister and I do believe she is very proud!!
I know we are going to have some adjusting to do once we get home but so far so good!!
