Baby Gideon

Who wouldn't want to be born on a morning like this?
April 19, 2010



A wonderful welcome to Baby Gideon! 8 lbs. 10 oz. 21 inches, born at 12:17 p.m.

He looks so much like Peter, we had to try on the glasses to see if they fit. They do.







His coming home outfit. Gideon the Gator. Check out his socks!



Aren't babies just the most amazing gifts? Every spot on them is perfection.



First bath at home. (he has a weird belly button, I know...the doctor says it will go away - whew!)

I have written so many posts in my head since I have been home. But, much to my amazement (hahahaha) I haven't had the time. But I will soon write about my love affair with Lorna Doone. Mmmm. (the cookies, you know) And how my delivery went, which I'm sure you're all on the edge of your seats to hear.

I'll give you a sneak preview, it went like this...

"Hmm. I never miss. Sorry. Ooops. Things don't usually go this way. Wait a little longer...Sorry. This is strange." And so on. Things you don't want to hear while in labor. There was also a little, "I love you Dr. Harward" that I may have said in a dreamy voice. And quickly followed with a "In a giving birth kind of way."

It was super fun. You won't want to miss it. Now if I can just find five minutes to myself. (hahaha) Maybe in a few more years...

He is perfect! And so like all of your beautiful children. And I love, love, love his name. Seriously, so cool. Maile and I haven't called because we don't want to interrupt any time you have with Peter, but I'm about out of patience :)Love you!
