He's Here......Finally!!!!!

Well Beckham Jaycen Bodily finally arrived to our little family on April 6, 2010 @ 1:59am. He weighed 8lbs 3 oz and is 19 inches long. For some reason it felt like this little guy took his sweet time to arrive. It probably felt this way because I was having lots of strong contractions weeks before his due date when in previous pregnancies I pretty much had  nothing or only mild contractions. He was only one day overdue when de decided to start the process of entering this world (my water broke at 8:15 pm on April 5th). I had a pretty smooth labor and delivery and recovery has been the best one thus far. We are excited that Beckham is here. However, we are a little apprehensive since we are now outnumbered and that 3 seems to be the magic number (kid wise) where most parents find it a bit tricky to adjust too (especially if you have had your kids closer together). I am anticipating life to be a bit crazy for the next few months, especially since Blake is REALLY active these days (boys....yes they are very alert...to put it politely). Tristen I am sure will be a great help with baby, it will be cute seeing her mothering skills come out. Any ways I figured I would write this blog post while at hospital since I know I won't have as much time or energy when I get home. So below are a few pics of Beckham.

What a cute baby! I am glad that he is finally here. Hopefully all goes well when you bring him home. It will take a few weeks to get a routine going, but it should get a little easier. Let me know if you need anything
