Our newest addition was born on September 1st, 2009 at 8:25pm. Aidan weighed 6 lbs and 14 ozs and was 19 and 3/4 inches long!! When other parents express that each child is different, they couldn't be more accurate :-) Jake not only weighed 2 lbs more than Aidan but was about 2 inches longer!! Jake was delivered via C-Section and Aidan was born "naturally"... I put the word in quotes because there were drugs involved!!! COULD NOT have gone through 11 hours of labor without the drugs!! and having never felt a real contraction I was taken aback when I felt one!! HOLY MOLY!!! they are not a girl's best friend!!... Aidan just had his 2 week check up and we are happy to report that he's growing like a weed... just like his brother!! He's now 7 lbs 10 3/4 ozs and is 20 3/4 inches long! Jake is adjusting fairly well as a big brother and John and I are adjusting to surviving on 3 hours of sleep a night!!! (IT WILL GET BETTER IN TIME!!!) we hope :) Here are some pics of our babies!!!
Aidan chillaxin' in a chair that Jake lived in as an infant!! But Jake took up a lot more of the chair:)
Proud big brother!!!
Aidan Thomas!!
