Well, he was here two weeks ago, haha, but as you can imagine it's been a busy couple of weeks with baby snuggles and healing from the pre-eclampsia and the subsequent cesarean section that brought our little man *out* to join our family!
Caleb Alexander was born September 4th at 3:44 pm, weighing 7 pounds 1 ounce and measuring 20 1/2 inches long. He's strong and healthy, though a bit jaundiced, which will go away over the next few weeks with lots of nursing snuggles and sunbaths! :)
Our doctor did an awesome and amazing job on the c-section, with very little blood-loss for me, which is an accomplishment for that type of surgery! I'm sore but recovering well from the incision, up and about again and happy to have a large majority of my usual energy back! That last month of bedrest about drove me batty, haha - I don't stay still well, so that was a real test!
Anyway, thank you for your prayers - we are so thankful that the Lord saw fit to answer them in such a way!
I'll post pictures later. :)
