Rest Everyone

Paul, Jack and I are doing great. Addison came by this morning to see her new baby brother and sang "Happy Birthday" to him. She seems pretty excited but also wants me to hold her when I have Jack in the bed. She likes to watch him sleep and is gentle with him. I think she is just generally excited about all of the people and attention. It has been an exciting day for sure!

Right now I am listening to Jack coo and sing while sleeping. I think he looks a lot like Addie did when she was born! His poor little nose was bruised because he came so fast, but other than that he is doing perfectly. Visitors have come and gone this morning. Many of you already know that Kelly and Tracy's commitment ceremony or wedding is today! I am so sad that I can't make it there today but at least Jack can share a very special day with them. Also, it means that my brother, Nick and his wife Jana, as well as some other outside family and friends, are here to attend the wedding and now see Jack!

The labor and delivery went really well. My water broke on it's own, I didn't need pitocin and Jack was born after about 20 or 30 minutes of pushing. We are now all just very tired and napping today. I think we may be here until Wednesday because Jack is a "little guy" (which is the technical term) and they want to make sure he is eating well. He has had two feedings early this morning but now just seems like he wants to sleep. I think we may need to get him up soon to try and feed again. This feeding experience has already been so different from Addie! She was up and ready to eat almost every 2 hours after she was born. Every person and experience is different isn't it!

We will get more pictures up soon... Sleep sleep sleep now.
