The day finally came!! On Monday the 12th my water broke around 10:30 PM. We were checked into the hospital just after 1Am and he was born on Wednesday the 13th at 5:30 AM. We decided to name him Sean Ryan. He weighed 8lbs 6oz, and he was 22.5 inches long. Everything went really well and besides the long night and feeling sleep deprived recovery went better then I ever could have hoped. We are so lucky we have such great family and friends who helped us out so much with Alyssa, so Ryan was able to stay at the hospital with us. It is so much fun to finally have Sean here with us he is such a good baby!!
I can't really complain about the labor. It was pretty short and once I get the epidural there isn't a lot going on. The only think I really have a hard time with is that I get really shaky and it keeps me from being able to get any rest.
The delivery was really fast this time. He came out with a scream that was seriously competing with Alyssa's. When she was born you could hear her at the end of the hall.
We are so happy to have him here with us. We love him so much already!
This is Ryan's favorite thing to do with the new babies.
The next morning when the Dr. came into get him to be circumcised, he asked if Ryan wanted to come watch. I am pretty sure Ryan came back more scarred from it than Sean did.
It was so funny, because the whole time we were in the hospital every nurse or anyone that would come into the room would comment how big his feet were. We had to get a picture of them.
The next day Nate and Catharine brought Alyssa to the hospital with them. It took her a little while to warm up to him. I think that even though we talked about him coming all of the time it didn't really make sense to her.
It didn't take her long to warm up to him and talking about what a cute baby he was.
Later, Alyssa didn't like that Sean was getting all of my attention so she decided to climb up there with us.
When it was time to check out of the hospital we started to get Sean all ready to go.
Ryan got him undressed and changed him. Then I got him dressed ready to leave.
Some quick pictures of us before we leave the hospital.
Sean hated his car seat and screamed for the first 10 minutes which felt like forever!
Alyssa had a few funny comments that she would make while we were in the hospital that I thought were cute.
She kept asking us why he had a stick growing out of his belly button.
Every time he would get his diaper changed she would comment that Baby Sean has a snail on his bum, that's why he's a boy. We would just start laughing every time she would say it. She has things all figured out. :)
