Meet Baby A. He was born on July 5, at 4:15 pm, approximately twelve hours after we arrived at the hospital. We are absolutely smitten with him, in all his perfection! He was a solid 9 pounds, 9 ounces, and 21 inches long. It wouldn't have mattered one bit, of course, had he been a little peanut and weighed 6 pounds, but I had always secretly had my heart set on having a ginormous baby. I got my wish!
Our first month has been a dream, and I know that some day soon I will long for the sleep-deprived nights and most precious feeling of snuggling with a newborn, who wants nothing more than to be in our arms. It has already gone so much faster than I thought it would. My heart is bursting with love, every single second, for our little boy. He is the greatest blessing we could have ever been given, and I still cannot believe he is ours.
