He made it!!! Slade Ronnie Andersen came into our lives Saturday December 4th. As you can see from some of the pictures he was an early Christmas present (at least for me). Cam got a new T.V. For everyone who told me I didn't look 9 months pregnant, I just want to say this baby was no easy task, weighing in at 9 lbs and 21 inches long. He has quite the squeal and set of lungs on him, fortunately he has been pretty good natured thus far. He takes after his dad in almost every way, including all that hair. He has Zoey's chin and facial expressions but the rest is all Cam. Zoey was a little unsure of things at first but came back later that night and gave little brother kisses! What a sweet girl!!! It has been hard being away from her, and I think she is adjusting better than I am.
So far, we have a healthy baby boy and will be able to go home Monday. I tested positive for Strep B and unfortunately they were only able to give one dose of antiboitics before he was born, so there is a little concern that he could get infected. The doctors are going to do blood tests and labs tomorrow just to make sure its safe to take him.
We have much to be thankful for, 2 beautiful children, loving family and friends who are willing to do whatever to help us out. We seem to be blessed every step of the
way. More pics to come as soon as life settles down a bit.
