Thankfully Dean has filled you in on all the delightful details of the delivery, so I don’t have to re-live it~ But I wanted to quickly add a few notes about our darling new son, Braden.
He is an absolute darling! Of course, being his parents we are pretty biased, but we think he is totally cute. He has his father’s blonde hair, which was really unexpected, and he has my big cheeks, (poor little guy!)
But really, he has been an absolute angel so far! He only cries when he gets his nappy/diaper changed. Yesterday he started getting fussy, and i didn’t know what to do, but he just put his thumb in his mouth and went to sleep! The lactation nurse was so impressed with him she said he should go around and teach all the other kids! And the nurse taking his picture said she’d never had an easier baby! He opened his eyes nice and big, and was happy.
The nurses and dr’s here have been awesome! I moan a lot about the American health care system, but surely nothing can beat the care that we have had here! I will hopefully be out by the end of today, but we’ll have to see how things go! We’ll keep you all updated.
