What's been going on....

On August 13, 2014, we welcomed Brighton to our family!  I had a C-section scheduled for later that week, so his arrival  on the 13th was somewhat of a surprise.  I had been having contractions off and on for several days, but on that particular day they just wouldn't stop.  I ate lunch at work and then called my doctor, who advised me to come in.  After going home, getting Navy taken care of and going back to the doctor's office, it was determined that I would be having him that evening.  Because I had eaten lunch (darn it!) they wanted to wait until 7 for the C-section! So I got to enjoy a few hours of labor before I was numbed and prepped for surgery. 

The end result was perfection, and we weren't disappointed. 

 

 

Most things about having a second baby are a lot easier the second time around!  It was difficult helping Navy adjust, however.  Not having to share your parents for almost four years and then having to share them with a newborn was tough, but she is such a great big sister.  He lights up when she talks to him and she loves to help with him and be around him. 

 

Since this blog is way behind, here's a snap shot of Brighton, months 1-7.  I hope to keep up a little better from now on :). 

I can't forget his first holidays either!
