On Saturday February 23rd at 1:51pm, Finlayson Dundas Blake karate chopped his way out into the world and weighed in at 6lbs 5oz. We arrived at the hospital at 1:30pm and he was out by 1:51pm. I nearly missed the whole thing trying to find a place to park.........his speed of exit was quite astounding. What can I say......the most incredible thing I have ever witnessed........overwhelmingly emotional and amazing that you can fall instantly in love with someone you have never met before.
Jude was nothing short of incredible and has fallen into the roll of Mom so naturally that I'm speechless. Watching her go through the process was something I will NEVER forget....she was incredibly brave and I am speechless. Mom and babe are both happy and healthy and we got home from the hospital on Sunday afternoon. It's not hard to sit for hours on end just staring at the little man....wow, wow, wow.
Hope you enjoy the pictures.....as one friend put it, Jude looks like she just spent the morning at a spa followed by a light lunch. I on the other hand was exhausted and felt like I had been hit by a truck......respect respect respect to mothers all over the world.
And now I sit typing this note with the little man on my lap, arms curled up by his face, crashed out hard after a good lunch of milk and more milk. I think he looks like Bob the builder with his little yellow hat and Jude thinks he looks like Yurtle the Turtle. He's got a good amount of dark brown hair and so far blue eyes.....it's hard to believe that one of our cats is 3 times his size.
