Easton James Zachary

Easton made his grand entrance into the world on October 16, 2013 at 11:24am. 
After 2 weeks of bed rest by body was still progressing into labor, so we decided to go ahead with the c-section that day. From the time the decision was made, to pre-op, to surgery, to our miracle entering the world was a total of 2 hours. 
He weighed in at 7pounds, 21 inches long. - and the think he was 4 weeks pre-mature!! 

He had pre-mature lungs and spent the first to days of his life in the NICU receiving wonderful attention and care. Easton turned around all by himself, no medication needed, only oxygen. I will say though that seeing your helpless little baby lie there with an oxygen and feeding tube is enough to make a mommy insane. 

We are all healthy, happy, and at home!!

Showering Easton

My shower was AMAZING! I wanted to keep with the same colors as the nursery; navy, lime green, and orange.

This gift table was full of wonderful gifts for my sweet baby boy. We had a little over 75 people in attendance though so this worn out sweaty momma was not wanting to sit in a circle and open all those presents. I felt my time was better spent visiting with the people that brought the people that brought the gifts.

 
 







 
All of my weekly pictures printed out for everyone to enjoy the growth of Baby Easton!



 
One exhausted, hot, tired mom to be!
