The second love of my life

Here are some pics of the day Emmory was born and the two days following in the hospital
Mark said he was going to take progression pics throughout the labor...however this was the first and last one he took haha


This was taken the next day after we got to the hospital...the labor lasted 31 hours, and we were at the hospital for 20 hours of it. Whew!

Mark seeing Emmory for the first time

Myself seeing Emmory for the first time
Our lil boy got a scored a 10 on the apgar scale...we were so proud :)

Holding him for the first time

My absolute favorite picture in the world, I will never forget this moment when they first laid him on me and those lil eyes were just staring at me

Proud daddy

Proud Grandma (my mom)

Proud Grandma (Mark's mom)

Me and my sweet baby boy

The grandparents

Aunt Susan

Of course Mark is goofing off even in the delivery room

Aww look at that face

In daddy's arms

Apparently labor was hard on Mark too...haha j/k he was an incredible coach and support I never would have made it without him

Daddy's hand on his boy
All swaddled up

On his tummy
Mama and son

Daddy and son

Emmory has the most amazing daddy...he helps feed him, change him, burp him, dress him, swaddle him, etc etc.
Can't hold him enough
In his going home outfit

It was quite a process to get him all dressed and he did so well

Grandpa flew in the day after he was born to see him

The lactation consultant at the hospital gave Mark the golden nipple award, she gave him an actual award because he said the breastfeeding session we were going to have was more important than having Emmory's picture taken by the photographer

Getting ready to go home

All snuggled in his car seat

Leaving our room
Leaving the hospital

In front of the car, you can see Emmory in his car seat in the background
More pics to come...
