Three weeks ago, I officially became a mom to two.
(I am working on writing his full birth story now, but I wanted to go ahead and share a couple of things, because there’s really no telling how long it will take me to process and write his story. 🙂 We’ve had a bit of a rough start since his birth, with some significant weight loss and a really pitiful diaper rash for him, as well as a bout of mastitis for me. My hands have been (gladly) preoccupied with his sweet little body or snuggling his big sister most of the time, so writing only happens in short bursts at very random times.)
The very quick, very short overview of his arrival is this:
My kiddos really love life in the womb and require medical eviction to bring them earthside. Knowing how big my daughter was at birth, we set an induction for two days after my due date. It was a long labor, but shorter than my first, and at 10:39pm on 2/16/17, our son was born.
He weighed 8 lbs, 7 oz. and was 21 inches long.
He looked exactly like his sister.
I fell in love immediately. We all did.
We didn’t name him until he was about a day and a half old:
Finn Jameson.
And he’s 100% perfect. ❤
May your wishes all come true
May you always do for others
And let others do for you
And climb on every rung
May you stay
Forever young
May you grow up to be true
May you always know the truth
And see the light surrounding you
Stand upright and be strong
And may you stay
Forever young
May your feet always be swift
May you have a strong foundation
When the winds of changes shift
May your song always be sung
And may you stay
Forever young.*
Congratulations on your precious little boy!
