Pictures of the Little One

First of all, please accept my apologies for not posting pictures sooner. We've been getting settled in here at home and are slowly coming back to normal life. We had an appointment this morning to double check on Ian's jaundice, but everything checked out OK and we were sent back on our way.

We've finally got some pictures...

Jackie on Wednesday morning at the very beginning of the induction.


As the induction didn't result in any activity until Thursday morning, we woke up in the hospital with the below view from our room.


Linda and Andy assisting as the pushing is under way.


Ian in the warming bassinet about 2 minutes after birth.


Andy trying to calm Ian down.


Andy, Ian, and Dr. Brown who delivered Ian. Great work doc!


Andy, Ian, Dr. Brown, and Linda.


Ian and Jackie saying hi to each other.


30 hours of labor? Worth every minute!


The little dude all swaddled up.


Dave and Ian getting to know each other.


The Watsons and the Van Inwegens.


The little guy napping in the hospital.


These are the booties that Linda's grandmother bought for her children to wear home from the hospital, and all four wore them home. Ever since, the tradition has been passed along for the same booties to carry home each of Linda's grandchildren. Ian makes the 10th person to be so honored.


Jackie and her son all cuddled up after lunch.


Ian napping at home.


Ian showing his pouty lips.

Ian is so beautiful! And he obviously loves his Mommy...it looks like he is smiling at Jackie in the hospital. I also love the pic with Dave, Ian is looking right at him!

We look forward to meeting him in person, when none of us are covered in spots or hacking up a lung.
