Jaime settling in

Last night was a first really good night of sleep with Jaime. He went the whole night without once crying or fussing. We only got up once to feed him around 2:30 (but I can only say that cause Vivi was willing to get up at 6:00am and not go back to bed - not me, I slept till 9:30).

He's sleeping now in the pack'n'play crib - the first time he's been able to sleep on a flat surface with no blankets or anything. Which means maybe he'll start sleeping in the crib at night, which would be fantastic!

I'm starting to feel human again after 1 week. I guess that's not so bad :-)

Jaime is Here!

Just a quick note: Jaime was born at 12:50 pm Tuesday, November 8th, 2005. 9 lbs, 1 oz, 22 inches long and a full head of hair. Everything went well and both mother and baby are perfectly healthy. Labor was extremely long, but in the end, it was all worth it. Expect pictures soon.

Labor is here

It's actually been here for 36 hours now - very mild contractions anywhere from 10-60 minutes apart. They're getting stronger now and we've been expecting to have to head to the hospital at any moment, but nothing more seems to be happening. We're scheduled to go in at 6pm tonight for inducement - it looks like we won't be early for that appointment.
