our will

It has been over a week since his debut, and I am just getting around to introducing you to our little man. Where are my manners?



William Wyatt entered the world on Sunday, November 14, 2010 at 1:20 pm. He was 6 lbs 5 oz, 20.5 inches long. He was born on week 36 of my pregnancy. I woke up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom and my water broke and we panicked a little, called the doctor, and headed to the hospital. I will hash out the full birth story at a later date when my mind has cleared some.  Here are the highlights...

This photo was taken the morning before I went into labor.


week 36, day 0

This photo was taken approximately 14 hours later.



And then he made his appearance and he was the most beautiful baby I have ever seen. Maybe I am just a little biased here!




Since our release from the hospital, little man was hospitalized again for jaundice.  He laid under the bili lights while I slept a few feet away on the sofa. Not the best experience, but he amazed the doctor with his turn around and was able to come home with us after less than 24 hours there.



We are settling in and working together to get the hang of things. Will kept both of his grandmothers on their toes keeping them both up until 2:30 am using 3-4 diapers and outfits in a row. I woke up the next morning asking what the heck happened after I went to sleep!











So far, Will is very laid back and sleeps a lot. He has Matt's mouth and chin and my eyes and strawberry blonde hair. The jury is still out on the nose and eye color.  We are just thankful he is happy and healthy and we are enjoying every second with him!
