Meet Weebu...

Sorry for taking so long to post this announcement, but I've been a tad distracted, as I'm sure you can understand. *wink*
Meet Oliver Thomas, born at home on July 6th. His birth went smoothly and without complications, despite being very long and hard. Unfortunately, there were some issues before and afterwards (both related and unrelated to the birth). I'll work on writing out an official birth story, but in the meantime, rest assured that everyone is doing just fine. It was just wasn't near as peaceful as I had hoped it would have been.
He weighed in at 7 pounds, 5 ounces, making him my biggest baby. (Abbie and Isaiah were 6#14oz, and 6#10oz). 20 inches long. He definitely looks a lot more like Abbie did as a newborn, but I can see resemblances from both siblings.
Anyways, someone's getting hungry, so without further ado, here's Ollie!

I knew you had had your baby!! :0) I was just waiting, hoping it wouldn't be too long before the announcement posted. Congratulations...he is soooo sweet and glorious and fresh and new! :) Awww...I miss the newborn phase, my girl is already 5 months old and sitting up and trying to crawl.

Anyway, I understand how you feel about the long, slow and hard labor. I would LOVE to talk to you about this! (if you want...)
Please convo me through Etsy and I'll give you my email addy. I love to talk about birth!! :0)

Big hugs...much love~ Jenn
