Liam Andrew

After ages of listening to me complain about the discomforts our newest bundle of joy was causing me while still happily sheltered inside my body, you all have earned the reward of finally meeting him...

Meet Liam Andrew

 

Isn't he just scrumptious?  He was born Friday morning and weighed in at a whopping 6 lbs 12 oz, making him officially the biggest baby I've ever birthed.  And, as you can see by the next picture, slightly bigger than my thumb.


He has dark blue eyes, dark enough that they'll probably switch to the lovely dark brown of his older brother's (and much older mother's) eyes.  And his first picture (which I am not smart enough to extract from the text messaging on my phone) that Medman took of him seconds after birth looks so ridiculously like D when he was born that if the two photos did not have date stamps I don't think I could tell who was who. Even the same little serene, "Ah yes, this is what I expected to have happen this morning" look which they both gave the camera.  When I'm more organized I'm posting both pictures.

So we're all home and settling in.  The older two think he's pretty cool.


Stay tuned in the future to be inundated with pictures and stories of his tiny little antics and those of his big siblings as we all adjust to having 3 kids in the house.
