Welcome Baby Gabe!!!

Well the boy has finally come. After struggling so long with a name we decided on Joseph Gabriel and will call him Gabe. He was 8lbs and 5oz and was 20 inches long. Everything went really well with the labor and wasn't nearly as bad as I expected. I think the epidural wore off towards the end so you might notice in one of the pictures after birth where I do not look too happy. It is because I was in A LOT of pain. It wasn't the labor part that was painful. I was more sore afterwards. Anyways our little boy is doing great for the most part. He has been tested 3 times for his biliruben level has been going up. (The poor guy had to keep getting poked in his foot) It got to be high enough where we are having to treat him with photo therapy. It is going ok and Gabe is doing really well with it. I was worried that he might be fussy because all he can wear is a diaper and has to be constantly in the light. We have to go get him tested again tomorrow. I hope it goes well. We love are little guy and so excited that he is a part of our family!!!

Arrival Of Baby Gabe!

Pumpkin Carving





Joe insisted he carve a mean face because that is how it is suppose to be. We had fun doing it though. He wanted to make sure we were able to carve the pumpkin before the baby came.
