Life with Crew

I know this post is long over due but I am just now finding time to sit and blog. Crew joined our family on 5/31/2011...I can't believe he is already 5 weeks! He was born at 1am weighing 7 pounds 12 ounces and 21 inches long. I went to the hospital at 7 am on Monday 5/30 and after 17 hours of exhausting labor, an epidural that only worked on one side, an infection and a C-section later we were blessed with an amazing baby boy. Crew is so handsome, just like his daddy :) Crew is a wonderful baby and has brought so much joy and happiness to our family. Here are some pictures of his short little life so far.

Last prego shots taken when we arrived at the hosptial.



Here at last!

We call this his "thinker's face". Crew makes this face often and always seems to have something weighing on his mind.






















This is the first time he spit up in his own hair, yuck!

I miss you guys already! That picture was SO NOT flattering but for the record I worked the grave the night before and still hadn't been to sleep. That was the look of being awake for well over 24 hours. Eek!
I couldn't miss coming to see home though. I was WAY too excited. He is SOOOO cute. Sawyer is completely in love with him. =)
