He's here and he's perfect!! (obviously haha)
Our little man is here. And he's kind of amazing.
Silas was born at 8:19pm on February 1!
He weighed in at 6 lbs. and 14 oz. He measured 20.25 inches.
Although, the cone head (that's gone now!) added probably an inch!
Amazingly, when he was born, he didn't cry.
His lungs were fine and all, he was just looking around, wide awake, and taking it all in.
....and then he peed. On me.
Welcome to boy mom life, right?
He's been a good eater, and a good sleeper so far!
He got to meet both sets of grandparents and Aunt Jenna the night he was born.
We got to take him home Saturday morning.
And the special part was that Silas wore home the hat, booties, and blanket that Chad wore home, 28 years earlier.
Chad is doing AWESOME.
For a guy who hasn't spent much time around babies prior to Silas, I am so impressed.
He is a master at swaddling, and has gotten the hang of diaper changes.
He has also been good at taking some time so that I can get a nap each afternoon!
The dogs are also very aware of their new baby.
Loki is especially interested.
He is always near "his" baby.
Any time Silas makes a noise of any kind, Loki is there to check on him!
We just have to remind him that Silas doesn't need ALL the kisses.
Silas is a good baby!
He basically eats, sleeps, and poops.
We had our first visit to the pediatrician today and he is a healthy little boy!
We feel so blessed.
