TWO WEEKS.
Because, that would mean that little Dude would be an ENTIRE WEEK OLD today.
And that? Is simply not possible.
And so... the starting of life... in pictures:
The clock in the operating room, marking the exact time.... (4:29pm)

First night with Mama...
A visit from the siblings....
Gosh, there are a lot of them!!
Little Love is needing some extra attention as she rapidly assumes her role as a "big" sister....
:)
And, clearly, someone needs to do some explaining to Ben the Cat.
A longer, more eloquent post to come on how wondrous are the ways of God and how lucky we are to be a part of this communion of saints here on earth.
For now, please know that I am so very grateful for the outpouring of prayers and good wishes. I could feel the many graces carry me through each moment of the surgery and subsequent recovery. Prayer is so powerful!
Much love and prayers of thanksgiving to all~
:)

Enjoy your babymoon and NO GUILT over not blogging! This beautiful little man is to be the focus...along with the changing dynamics & needs of your family.
It makes a difference when he's outside the womb, doesn't it? :) He (and you) look great!
Happy Babymoon - again! How beautiful and what a beautiful family! You look pretty amazing yourself in those photos :)
He's beautiful! Thanks so much for taking time to post. I have been checking in often to see if all was well. Praise God for this beautiful blessing on your family.

Sending prayers and love to you!

I bet you have a lot of little helpers and YOU LOOK AMAZING just after having a baby. Hope you are getting your strength back, healing well, and getting just a little bit of rest.
Enjoy all the moments ...
