Caleb William arrived this morning at 9:06 am.
8 lbs. 15 oz.
22 inches
And soooo laid-back. Which is nice-so different from Ella's first day. He's cried enough to let us know that he's okay but other than that, he's been quiet. And what a champ at nursing! Also different than Ella. He latched on for one session for an hour! (switching sides in b/w)
More to come later about the actual birth story. We're all doing fine and Ella is adjusting to having a little baby brother. However, when she found out he was a boy, she said, "But I wanted a baby sister!" Maybe next time. Yet, she's already been showering him with kisses and telling him she loves him. So I suppose all will be well. :-)
Thank you all for your prayers!
And by the way, it's so hard to call him Caleb! We keep saying, "Icee!"
