Our newest little man
On
Friday, October 13, 2006, Jarel Braddock N. joined our family!
God is truly great. I had a homebirth and he was born in the
water and I was inadvertantly the one to catch him, which was more
amazing than I could've imagined. Don't get me wrong, it was
still hard work to labor/give birth (and there was definitely still
pain involved lol), but it was such an awesome experience for our
family! Little Man was not so little, at least not for me  .
He was 9lb 4oz/22.5 in, w/a 14in. head and 14.5 in. chest. I know
full well that so many mamas have bigger babies than that, but I never
had! My biggest up to that point was dd, at 7lb 14oz. He
was born only a day after his due date, so it wasn't that he had so
much "extra" growing time either hehe. Whatever the cause, it
doesn't matter. He's here and he's deliciously smoochy and
adorable and squishy (sorry for getting a bit gushy). He doesn't
lack for love or attention here. He probably feels he gets a
little too much attention from his older siblings  . Not sure if the picture works or not, but we'll see. |
