HE IS HERE!!!

Gabe was born August 1st at 3:16... 7 lbs. 3 ozs and 20.5 inches... Jayce had been born at 2:16, and was 7,6 and 20.5 inches so they were pretty similar! Labor was a little harder this time, WELL a lot harder this time...It took an hour longer, but my water was broken about 5 hours later than last time, and I think that held things up... I can honestly now say I know what pain goes along with childbirth, which I could not say last time, b/c I felt no pain... Jay says I just have some war stories to brag about, I say, we might be done now! BUT, I had no pass outs and did not get sick that first night, which was a change for the better...Anyhow, he is here and is beautiful and definitely worth any pain I experienced... I am definitely in love all over again and did not need to worry about whether I would be able to do that again, because I certainly can and do! Gabe looks exactly like Jayce did! He does have lighter hair and curlier hair than Jayce was born with... he is absolutely precious! He is so laid back and I've only heard him get a little loud 3 times since he was born, one of which was WHEN he was born... So far, he eats and sleeps and looks around, all very quietly! He is so sweet... Jayce is taking well to him and loves to hold him! We have to just be sure to supervise! His first gesture to Gabe was to hand him his blankie which was HUGE b/c Jayce does not like to give up his blankie to anyone...His first words were "who you?" to Gabe... then we told him it was Gabe and he climbed up on the bed, kissed him and said hey Gabe, I have gum... and stuck out his tongue to show him... it was hilarious!


Anyhow, mom is making me take a nap, I'll post some pics here today and many more soon! Hope you enjoy! Love to you all, Christyn
