The Baby


So I tried to post yesterday but a good example of what happens when you have a two week old is all that I mustered up writing. I wrote the and then was trapped for the next 3 hours of feeding, rocking, and diaper changing. So anyhow I finally had my baby on November 18th, 2008. He was a healthy baby boy we named him Jonas Elwood Fisher . He was 5lbs and 6 oz and was 18.5 inches long. He is now over 6 lbs so he is putting on wait quickly. I was going to write about the whole traumatic experience of having preclampsia and having to be induced but now I am too tired too. I am just thankful we are both alive becuase on Thursday of that week the doctor said if we had waited any longer to come to the doctor we would probably not be here, seeing that the only cure is to deliver the baby. All in all things are well. I am thinking about for my birthday asking Ben for one whole night of sleep. Funny how things change in just a few weeks. Here are some pictures of the little one.

Congratulations! And you will have to post about your experience sometime when you're not so sleep deprived. I remember when Hayley was a newborn thinking the same thing, that all I wanted was one good night of sleep. It will get better! I'm glad you're alive! Sounds like you went through a scary situation.

Wow! That sounds scary! He's such a cute little guy and with your hubby being a pilot you probably already have a ton of airplane outfits. That's Alex's whole wardrobe! Now that he's old enough to know he really likes it!
