This is the night before i went to the hospital...looks like i could tip over at any minute! How the heck did i paint my toenails...at this stage i didn't even know i still had feet! Mom must have done them!

His precious nursery!

Waiting...not dialating, but i have good drugs. See, i'm still smiling!
After an obscene amount of time, during which i got really sick, was still not dialating, and started running a high grade fever, it was time for eviction via c-section!
Finally here! 8lbs 6ozs!

They got him cleaned up, and at long last i got to hold my beautiful baby!
So handsome!

Getting some rest after our long night!

The next few weeks brought lots of sleeping, feeding, and coming into our new roles!

Bailey had an instant new buddy!


I spent so many hours just looking at him, amazed that i took part in creating this darling bundle!

This was after his first real bath! It took FOREVER for his cord to fall off. It is obviously time for another feeding!
