This past weekend was a really busy weekend. Sunday my niece gave birth to a little boy. I'm still trying to think of a name for the little guy. I went to see him on Monday. I took my mother after her doctor's appointment.
Those two people had such a difficult time. My niece went into preclampsia. So the doc induced labor. Zach was turned in a bad position. A couple of times his heart rate went down. My poor niece labored for 12 hours. I know it could have been longer but still 12 hours is a long labor. Zach, even though 3 weeks early, was a good size. He weighed 5 lbs. 14 oz. and was 20 inches long. He is beautiful.
When we saw him at the hospital he was all wrapped up good and tight. He had a little hat on and the blankets went up over the top of his head. Zach was having a hard time keeping his body temperature. He slept through our whole visit, even though I tried very hard to wake the little guy up.
In conclusion, all I know is this little guy took my heart. He has the sweetest little nose. It is so perfect. My heart aches that my niece suffered so while delivering him but she is such a little trooper. She never complained once and kept assuring my mom that she was doing fine. I would include a link to his picture but apparently they chose not to allow his picture to be posted on the hospital's website. Bummer! Because I sure would like to show off this little tike.

Don't get any wild thoughts in your head! ;-)
Yes, baby sure are precious, especially if they belong to someone else. Seriously, baby are miracles and anyone who has experienced childbirth knows that for sure. Congratulations!
