2 days old!!!

Dearest Kayden,
You are so precious!! You are currently laying across my chest asleep.
You were delivered July 17, 2011 at 2:46 pm. Labor went pretty easily. We went into the hospital early that morning and started on pitocin. Then Dr Hall came in and broke my water. I went into active labor around 9 am. So all in all I was in active labor less then 6 hours. Everyone keeps telling me how lucky I am that it passed that fast for my first delivery. You weighed 7 lbs and 1 ounce. You are 21 inches long and absolutely perfect!

Your daddy cut the cord which totally made your nana cry. I was mostly in shock. I was trying to push you out fast cause you were posterior causing alot of pain even though I had an epidural. So it was hard to wrap my head round the fact you were finally here.
I think your daddy has come to terms that you are here but its still surprising to me. You have been such a good baby! You sleep really well and latch on pretty quickly when you are hungry.
Well today we were discharged and came home. Muffin isnt sure how she feels about you yet. She just knows that something small is laying in her place on her mommy. She will get use to it! You have done really well! You slept the whole way here and then slept in your swing for a little while. You have already fed a couple times and daddy changed your diaper.
Well tonight is our first night at home together so lets hope it goes good! We already have your bassinet in place and will probably head to bed soon.
We are so glad to have you! You have been such a blessing to us already! We love you so much,
Mommy
