Declan James was born on 2/15 at 8:04 am. He was 8 pounds 6.9 ounces, and 21.5 inches long. I have no idea how a baby that size fit inside me, and I'm so grateful that I got to deliver via c-sections!
Anyways, the birth was smooth and I was home two days later. I'm so grateful to be a fast healer; God surely knows what I need and that is to bounce back as quick as possible.
Dex is now three weeks old so these pictures are already out of date. He's growing very well, already passed his birth weight. I am breastfeeding, but I do not know for how long. I'm longing to get back into shape and lose a lot of weight. And since that doesn't happen for me until after I'm done breastfeeding, well, I'm anxious to get there.
Thank you so much for your prayers. God hears his children.

Oh Jes, he is so precious! I can't wait to meet him! I would love to hold a tiny baby! :)
I'm glad you're recovering smoothly! Looking forward to seeing you again soon!
He's a punkin'! I just love his precious little sugarbooger lips!!! And he smells good too. And although I really don't like other people's children, I LOVE him. And you too! Muah!!
He's a precious little peanut!!! (And I LOVE the name!)
He is just absolutely BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!!!!! Does he look like any of your other kids? From the pictures you posted, he looks different. But then with eyes closed sleeping, I guess it is hard to tell.
I need to hold him. ;)
Love the name too. (Wink)
And am soooo glad you are healing quickly and bouncing back.
Look forward to seeing you soon!
