Baby Nathan

It has taken a few days to get this posted, but Nathan Michael is finally here! He arrived the evening of Wednesday, April 30th weighing 7 pounds, 10 ounces and measuring 20 inches. We are so happy to finally meet him and feel incredibly blessed because he is perfectly healthy. All of us, including PJ, are adjusting to having a brand new baby in the house, and it's going pretty well. At first little Nate wanted to be held around the clock, but now it looks as though he's getting used to being in this big world. He has been sleeping pretty soundly in the bouncy seat for the past couple days, so we're grateful for that. Of course, being a nursing mom, I'm the one who is most sleep-deprived, but I know that will get better in time. Tim has been staying busy playing with Tyler and helping with Nate when he can. Nana and Papa helped a lot the past few days by spending time with Tyler and providing meals. Tyler is doing really well in his new role as big brother. He likes to go up to Nate while he's sleeping in the bouncy seat and very sweetly says "hi" or "hey" to his little brother. Every time Nate starts to cry, he says, "Uh-oh!"

We've accumulated quite a few photos in the past couple days, so I'm posting several here. Enjoy!

I don't think they can get any more perfect than that! Nate looks SO much like Tyler. What a beautiful little boy. And wow does Tyler look like such a big boy holding Nate. You guys are so blessed to have such a beautiful family! See you on Thursday!

I LOVE Tylers expression in the picture where he is holding his baby. I can't believe we both have two boys...we are old.
I love you!!!!
