CRUZ CANNON CHRISTENSEN
11/04/2008 7lbs. 2oz. and 19" long.
Starting to wonder where I have disappeared to? He is finally here!I was induced on November 4th -- Election Day! The doctor broke my water around 8:30am, but Cruz was way too cozy in there and didn't actually arrive until 3:45pm. I decided to go natural again (without an epidural) and this is the only time that I was wishing I hadn't -- OUCH! But he is SO worth it. We are blissfully happy! Bella and Cole absolutely adore him. Cole can't get over how tiny he is and is constantly poking him, "Look at his tiny ears! Look at his tiny eyes! He is so cute!" And Bella is already my biggest helper... She is such a mother hen - holding him whenever I am not. It is precious!
**Picture taken by Becky Kimball - she is AMAZING! :) Thanks again Becks!
