I’m Here! May 30, 2008

Finally, I’m here! I was born via C-Section at Sunrise Children’s Hospital in Las Vegas on May 28th and 8:21pm. I weighed in at 7 pounds and 12 ounces and I’m a very long 21″. I have very, very big hands and feet. Dad took this picture just about 15 minutes after I was born — he’s taking lots and lots of pictures that will be posted here as soon as mom and dad can get home this weekend.
Aunt Ashley helped mom figure out the breastfeeding thing. Grandma Annie was there making mom laugh. Rafe came for a visit too, but he wouldn’t change my diaper.
So far, everything is good. Mom is breastfeeding me regularly, daddy is changing all my diapers (he thinks that meconium stuff could potentially solve the world’s oil supply problems), and I’m sleeping all the time. My pediatrician gave me a completely clean bill of health. I’m really looking forward to getting home on Saturday!
Almost Time! May 27, 2008

I’m almost ready! Its been nine long months, but finally, I’m about to see the light. I’m really looking forward to meeting mom and dad and seeing my nursery — rumor has it they’ve been slaving away for weeks getting it ready for me. Here are some pictures:
Mom and Dad found these pictures on the web, projected them onto my nursery walls, and then spent about a hundred hours hand painting them. The books the animals are reading are reproductions of my Dad’s three books (Poker: the Real Deal, Little Green Book, and Little Blue Book).
Thanks to Melissa Devita, Michael Keller, and Grandma “Annie” for their excellent help with the painting.
