Evan had his first bath in the hospital - he loved it sooo much ;)

Here is Evan's very proud daddy!!!

Home!!! Resting on Mommy tummy after breastfeeding!!!

Here is a video of Evan when I first got to hold him right after birth. What a moment that was!

The first of many check-ups by the nurses. Evan was given his shots and measured. He was 20 3/4 inches long.

Evan weighed 6 lbs. 15 oz. at birth, but has lost a little bit of weight since then, which is normal.

Labor pains and Evan's arrival!!!

Labor began to get pretty rough, so Jenni decided to request an epidural to alleviate the pain - it was well worth it! Baby Evan was in a little bit of distress during the middle part of labor (his heart rate would keep going down with each contraction), so Jenni was given extra oxygen. Turned out that Evan had his umbilical cord wrapped around his neck, but all turned out good:)









Finally, 14 hours after Jenni's water broke - at 3:34 p.m. on December 21, 2009, our son, Evan Henry, arrived!!! He is the most handsome baby in the maternity unit!

2:00 AM. Getting ready to go to the hospital!

Early in the morning of Dec. 21st, Jenni's water broke, so we hurried to get things ready. Even though Evan was supposed to be due January 11th, 2010, we were planning on having Jenni induced Dec. 30th because of her high blood pressure, but God had different plans. He answered our prayers by addressing our fears about whether we should induce or not. He took our choice out of our hands by having Jenni go into spontaneous labor! And we couldn't have been happier or more relieved!!!
