birth pics

I don't have any photos of the actual labor process because we were all a little shocked at how quickly things were going, and were focusing on well...laboring. By the time Shawn, Rhonda, and I had time to catch our breaths and even think about photos, Cohen was born! Here are the precious photos we were able to get of those moments immediately after Cohen made his arrival:

"He looks like your Gramma," was Shawn's response when I asked if he looked like the name Cohen would suit him. I'm sorry Mom, but the name "Betty" just didn't seem quite right:

Falling in love:

Everything went so quickly that we didn't even have a chance to call our family until Cohen was already here:

Sweet, sweet baby boy:
We are officially home from the hospital and had our first night at home last night. Jude's done so well with Cohen, though it's already not easy to juggle the needs of both. We're waiting for Cohen to begin the screaming fest that we had with Jude as a baby, but so far he's a very low maintenance newborn. Our biggest issue right now is that the sweet boy just doesn't want to eat very often. We're making an appointment tomorrow to see the pediatrician though, so we'll see what's going on. My posts will most likely be very sporadic for the next little bit, but I'm excited to start uploading some photos and sharing more of how having two under two is going!
