Ta da!


Bean
As you know, Bean has sprouted! I met my son for the first time Friday morning, and am absolutely smitten. Since I last wrote, Thursday afternoon, it's been quite the adventure - including the emergency c-section that brought him into this world. We've now been home for about 24 hours. Okay, his mouth is indicating a need to eat, so I'll have to finish my thoughts later.

Welcome to motherhood ... the best "club" in the world! [It's also called the night shift, LOL!] :D :D "Bean" is an absolute cutie. Can't wait to hear more details, but first ... get as much rest as possible! Sorry about the emergency C-section. :( At least it's all over now and he's HERE! :)

He is beautiful!! I love his hair. About a year ago my six year old asked me how he got out of me and telling him they "cut a little hole and took you out" was true and put the telling of the true where did I come from details off for awhile! So thats one bonus for having a c section! Plus, look at how perectly round and beautiful his head is! Congratulations!

What a cutie! He looks so smart and knowing already, like he's about to issue some pearl of wisdom from that round little mouth. Congratulations, Mama and Papa!

Congratulations again the both of you! We finally get to see Bean :) I'm sure it must have been a wonderful feeling just getting to hold him in your arms.

Congratulations, Shokufeh and Sam!

He's absolutely beautiful. I'm sending thoughts of restful sleep and peace to all three of you. I'm pretty sure they're strong enough to make it to you.
