It happened 5 weeks ahead of schedule, but the little guy decided it was his time. The joke's on him, because due to his early arrival, he remains nameless (mom and dad thought they had 5 more weeks to iron out that minor detail). More details to come once mom gets home from the hospital and chronicles her adventure. I will say that once again, I was so very impressed, and proud of Sarah. She never ceases to amaze me, even on our third child, she was in her typical form - which is to say she was ready for anything, endured much pain without complaint (even smiled in between pushes), and brought the little guy safely into the world, showing why she is truly a champion mom.
He was 5 lbs, 12 oz, and was 18 inches long. Not bad for 35 weeks, and nearly half the size of Quin at birth. This is my (Kevin's) first blog post, so we'll see if any of these pictures actually work. You can see that Kale and Quin are very excited for their new brother. It is hard to tell how small he is in these pics, but you
can see how big the newborn diaper is. Thanks to all for their thoughts and prayers during this special time in our family!
We took Weston in for his 2 week visit and he weighed 6 lbs and 10 oz. and was 20 1/4 inches long. He is doing great. He is starting to wake up a little more these days but not much. He is still a really good baby. Kale said yesterday, "He is so cute. He is so cute that I just can't stop saying he is so cute." It has been fun to see the boys enjoy him. Quin just keeps asking if he can play with him yet. We have to tell him he can't play yet but when he is bigger he will want to play with him. So Quin settles on just giving Weston a high five.
