8lbs 3oz 20 3/4 inches What a MAN!!

We are in Love. This sweet baby came into the world Thursday June 12 at 7:30am via C-section. I will not go into details, it was frightening for daddy and me, but as the days progress I remember less and less, so much so, I would do this again.
Evan has my coloring (I was a red head/strawberry blonde) and his father's good looks. He is a great baby. Sleeps 3-4 hours at night! we have to wake him up to feed. And he loves to eat. We are learning as we go but enjoying every step of the way. I also have to mention what an incredible husband/baby daddy I have. Pat has been the best part about this whole experience. SO loving to me, he has taken the best care of me and I have not wanted for anything. As for Evan, I did not change a single diaper for 4 days. Daddy gets up and brings him to me if it's feeding time (he knows the signals) he changes diapers, gives bathes, and still finds time to cook dinner and breakfast! I am more in love with Pat now than ever before and find myself in a continuous state of awww over my husband and son.
Enjoy our Son!
