Grandma's Photo Shoot

Shawn and I finally got a decent night's sleep, so we decided to do a photo shoot with baby Nolan. My mom is a wonderful photographer, and she captured some great moments. Here are some pictures from the shoot.

We made it through week one. We had our first trip to Central Park and a ride in a taxi to the doctor today. All in all he is a great baby, and hopefully we'll get this up all night faze figured out soon!

Finally, Pictures

Here are a few pictures of Nolan. He is a sweet cute baby, but I think he is a little confused with day and night. We will have to work on that one! We are learning to adjust on the long hard road of life with a newborn. I'm looking forward to getting a real routine down. The good news is, we've only been home for 3 days, and we are all doing pretty good!

The number one question people asked me was, "How are you getting home from the Hospital?" Answer: A Black Lincoln Town Car!

Baby Makes Three

Baby Nolan Arthur was born March 16th at 2:31 p.m. As soon as we upload our pictures I will update the post. We are all doing well and just got home from the hospital a few hours ago. Baby weighed 7 pounds 7 ounces 20 and 3/4 inches! OK, so we got a new IMAC and I have no idea how to use it. Here is an attempt to copy, cut and paste a picture. Hopefully I can figure out how to use this thing today and get a bunch of pics up! Sorry to keep you waiting.On our way to get hail a cab and head to the hospital.....aka "before!"
He's here.....aka "after!"

The Waiting Game

Well the 10th has come and gone. I had a feeling that this guy was going to show up late! I went to the Dr. today for a check up and a non stress test. I have not progressed much since last week, but the baby's heart rate and my blood pressure and heart rate are great. If the baby does not come this weekend, we will check into the hospital Monday night to start the induction process. The Dr. will show up around 7:30 on Tuesday to start the second and more intense part of the induction. If all goes well he will be born some time on the 16th! For now I will continue to sit around and wait!

The day we found out that we were going to be parents....4th of July!

Almost There

Just over a week til my due date. I have a feeling this kid isn't going to come early. We're ready for him, but I think he likes his current living arrangements! We have been busy here with people in town, getting ready for the baby and Shawn's Birthday. We finally celebrated his birthday on Sunday at our favorite Italian place in the East Village. Happy belated birthday Shawn!!

Here are a couple belly shots from last week by my sister.
