Introducing Dallas Charles

We have a new child - a son! Here are the stats: Name - Dallas Charles Kibbe Born Dec 7 at 10:48PM (13 days early) 8lbs 3.9 oz, 21" long


His birth story is very similar to Emily's. Eighteen or so hours of labor, but with this little one only 13 minutes of pushing! He is doing so well at home. I feel very spoiled so far. He sleeps a lot, is eating like a champ (although I do have to wake him sometimes to do so), and is very easy to soothe. Today at almost 5 days old he is finally giving us some eye time, up until now he would barely keep his eyes open for longer than 3-4 minutes at a time. The only think that makes him slightly fussy at this point is getting naked for a diaper change, and who can argue with that. Emily is enjoying the big sister role, she had been very helpful. Everyone keeps asking how she is adjusting, I think she is doing the best she possibly can be. She hasn't been feeling that great this week, dealing with a cough and running/congested nose and she is still doing quite well. The bottom line is we feel really blessed and thank God for this wonderful little guy.
