2 Weeks & 2 days old

It has been so surreal these last 2 weeks. It seemed like the last month that I was pregnant took so long, and now life is flying by. We cannot descibe how amazing Jack is! He has been the best baby so far! Jack is already holding his head up on his own (for the most part), he has started to recognize what his hands are and that he can control them, he is very alert when he is awake and gives you great eye contact!

Evan and I still look at him and say "where did you come from?!", this is crazy. But we could not be more in love!

Jack is growing too! He is up to 8 pounds! Which means he has gained 1 pound since birth. And he is still so cute!

We has his infant photos taken last week, he did not behave. However, we got some great shots! Here are some of our favs!

I'm Finally HERE!!

We finally have our little boy!

Name: Jack Robert Lawson

Birthday: April 11th, 2011

Time: 2:49pm

Weight: 7 pounds .07 ounces

Length: 20 inches

Hair & Eyes: Blonde Hair and Blue Eyes

He is perfect! There isn't more to say than that!

We checked into Harris downtown at 6pm on Sunday 4/10 to start the induction process. Evan and my mom stayed with me in the hospital. The room was so nice, however the overnight accomodations for them were a little hard. I was started on pitocin at 6am on Monday 4/11. My water broke at 9:45 pm and they took me off the pitocin. I got my epidural at 11:30am (FYI the most amazing thing ever). I started pushing at about 1:15 pm and Jack was born at 2:49pm!!

Evan's parents (Richard & Ann) along with my parents (Ted & Sherry) and Jack's Godfather (Chad) were there to greet him (when we got all cleaned up of course).

Jack passed all of his tests and we got to come home yesterday, 4/12 at 5:30pm! It was so great to come home and sleep in our own bed.

Working until the last moment

Official Due Date: April 9th, 2011

I'm so ready to meet baby Jack! Everyone is. For Evan and I, it has been one of the most amazing things to hear how many people are waiting for Jack. We are so blessed to have so many people who care about us and our new family!
