Baby Seamus

Baby Seamus joined our family at 8:15am on Tuesday, July 26th.    He weighed 8lbs and 2oz and was 20.5 inches long.  The c-section went well and he and I are both doing well.  He's a champion eater (like his big sister was) and managed to put on 3oz in one day in the hospital (after his initial loss of a few ounces).  He is good tempered (so far) and stinking cute.  Eve is over the moon.  She seems delighted with her baby brother (so far).  We got home from the hospital last night and are tired, but adjusting.  Fortunately, my mom and dad are here for a bit to help with Eve.  Then Jim's parents will come to help.  We are so very lucky. I'll post more and better photos in time. 

The hospital provided a "celebration meal" for Jim and I.  It was so nice.
