Coen made his way into this world early Sunday morning at 5:21 a.m. after a full night of labor! Of course this little guy wasn't going to let US tell him when his birthday would be, as we were scheduled to induce Tuesday morning.
The beginning stages of labor happened while we were celebrating a birthday with some friends. I tried shrugging off the pain but as the short contractions got to 3 minutes apart it was time to make our way to the hospital!
We were quickly admitted once arriving, being it's been a weekend of thunderstorms - every room was occupied and the little lullabye chime that plays throughout the building when a new baby is born was chiming away!
The whole experience was different this time. Labor was six hours instead of tweleve, epidural came JUST in time then about 20 minutes of delivery and once more...life will never be the same!
Coen is just beautiful! His first photos remind us so much of Brody, he's slowly evolving into his own. He has big brother's ears, my dad's flat feet and musician fingers, daddy's nose, and a rockstar 'do' like his Uncle Gerard! The boys set eyes on eachother yesterday afternoon, Brody is ready to play with his new brother, he had fun pushing him through the hallway...with daddy carefully navigating.
Mommy and Daddy are doing great, and adjusting with little sleep. - We are amazed at the amount of love that has grown with these two new feet ♥
