Day Two

Nathan is officially on day two of his life. If possible, he is more perfect today than yesterday. He got checked out by the pediatrician and everything looks good. Received his first vaccination and had a hearing test (he can hear). He has had many a visitor today and handled the attention well, of course.

For those of you interested in the birth story, I will give a quick rundown. In hindsite, I was likely having some contractions at the clinic on Friday afternoon. I went home early and rested. When Trace came home I has having more of the same pains, but thought they were Braxton-Hicks. I continued to have some after we went to bed, and at 1 am decided that I was in labor and needed to get Trace up. We started timing and at 3 am headed into the hospital. When we arrived, I was 5 cm dilated. Everything progressed pretty quick and at 9:20 am, after one hour of pushing, out he came - all 8 lbs 13 oz of him. We are still in a bit of shock that he is ours, but on cloud nine. Here are a few pictures from day two.
