Our baby boy is here! Woodrow Paul was born Monday September 8th, at 8:04 AM, weighing in at 8 lbs 1.5 ounces and 18.5″ long.
Even though he’s only a week old, life before he arrived is difficult to recall. That may be due in part to sleep deprivation, but that’s okay. Our chubby-cheeked boy is perfect and we’re so happy to be home with him.
I’m recovering well from surgery, and Margot is adjusting to her role as big sister beautifully. She had extra special attention from her grandma CeCe who flew in to help us out while we were bringing Woody into the world. Even the dog is taking the change in stride.
Isaac’s paternity leave ends this week, then I officially begin life at home with two kids. There’s a lot of trepidation on my end at this prospect, but I’m sure the adjustment won’t be as difficult as I envision (I tend to be a worst-case-scenario worrier). My house will undoubtedly take on a new level of disorder, lazy crock pot meals will nourish us, and the dog will likely go un-walked. I value order highly, but I know it needs to take a backseat to the bigger picture shift at hand. Sorry in advance to my visitors, and while it is very tempting, please don’t write your name in the dust.
More portraits to come soon.
Yea Yea Pueblo 
Babies just need a semi-clean enviro. My forever motto concerning house cleanliness- “Clean enough to be healthy, dirty enough to be happy.” Love, CeCe
That’s a great motto! I bet these kids of mine will appreciate that on Saturdays when they’d rather play than clean house 😉
What a sweet boy! Congrats, and I’m sure you’ll manage to keep things in order. 🙂
Thanks, Hollie!
Wow, congratulations!!!!!!!! What a handsome little man! I’m so happy for your whole family and can’t wait to hear all about your adventures as a mom of two!
