On March 13th, we welcomed the newest addition to our family...
Ted William
9 lbs, 7 oz
22 inches long
This photo is from the day Ted was born. His size surprised us all! And he was born with a lot of strawberry blond hair... just like his big sister, Brielle.
The proud big sister and big brother... who have been wonderful to their new brother, and a big help at home.
Our first photo as a family of five.
My water broke at home- at 8pm on March 12th. That was a fun surprise, since my due date was March 21st, and with both of my previous pregnancies I was induced past my 40 week due date. We were excited! We called my mom to come watch the kids, finished bedtime stories, cleaned up the kitchen, and packed our things for the hospital.
Here are Brielle & John watching as the nurse came in to check Ted's vitals.
Ted is named after my dad. Baby Ted's middle name is William, after Tim's grandpa.
We did not announce the name until he was born (and did not know if we were having a girl or boy)... but a friend/neighbor quickly made this hat for him, and he was able to wear it while he was still in the hospital :)
What a wonderful blessing!
