Welcome to the world Blake!

Blake was born via repeat C-section on Jan 16.  While I really didn't want another surgery, in the end we opted for it and I think it was the right decision.  Regardless, he's here, safe, healthy and that's all that matters!

It's been a whirlwind of course - trying to adjust not only to another newborn in the house, but also having a toddler running around as well.

Abby is falling in  love with Blake more and more each day.  She's so gentle, loving, kind and sweet to him it makes my heart melt watching her.  She can't wait for him to "get really really big" so she can show him how to "play her games" and "take him for a ride in her jeep".  But for now, she's content just "petting" his head, hugging him, kissing him and helping us.  She gets diapers and burp cloths or whatever else we need and can't reach.  It's awesome!

Here are some photos over the course of the last couple off weeks.  Can't wait for everyone to meet him!

Goofy family photo ;)

Exhausted after his doctor's appointment.  

I didn't even need to swaddle him because he was out before I laid him down!
