Baby Noah.......

He is here! Born exactly a week ago today and weighing in at 7 pounds 14 ounces! He was 20 1\2 inches long. Perfect! So far he seems to have a very easy-going nature! My stay at the hospital was good, hard, nice, too long, too short; but all in all, a great experience. They had fountain drinks right by my room so I would get my exercise by walking out there for a little Diet Coke. Nice!! Here are some pictures of our litte man, whom we all adore.


His first day home and getting a little snack from Addie!! They all have been such good helpers!!

Here is the gang, picking me up from the hospital. Audrey totally loves him and wants to squeeze\choke him all the time. She loves to "kiss" him which means she puts her lips on his head for a good 30 seconds. Then she turns around and smiles big at me and I smile big at her. Good big sister!!

Here is Noah getting ready to come home from the hospital. That was the smallest outfit I had that wasn't a baby nightgown, but also had the hand mittens. He has the longest nails ever and I can't cut them for another week or so! He also has long toes and big feet! Got another heart-breaker on our hands!! Handsome boys!!

His first picture! His cute hair made us all smile! He has tons of hair, just like all his siblings did! It is kinda blonde and curls like that when wet! Yep, he is a doll! I know, I know!!

Ok, this one is so cute! I took this one this morning after a long night thanks to his circumcision. He is ready to start his day: eating, sleeping, going potty and getting love from the whole household!!

I am feeling pretty good; each day is better and better. I am grateful I heal pretty fast from c-sections and by the time a week goes by, I don't need the pain meds anymore and I feel more and more like my old self. Just one more week and I can pick up my little Audrey again. She has been doing well and I have been giving her lots of love and handfuls of chocolate chips.

My mom has been coming over each day this week and that has been so nice. We hang out and watch TLC: What Not to Wear. Cake Boss. Love it.

Once again our ward has been amazing and have brought the best meals ever!! I feel so blessed to have such great people surrounding us.
It is so crazy to think we have 5 kids. I hope I do well at raising these precious ones I have been given. I am grateful to a great husband who is kind to me and enjoys these 5 kids as much as I do and works so hard for us! More pictures to come.....................
