My beautiful baby
This is what I like to see about 11:30 p.m.
There's nothing in the world like a sleeping baby
This baby's arrival has been much anticipated by the whole family. On the morning I was being induced, Isaac said the morning prayer with Grandma, who was with the younger kids. She later told me he said, "Please bless our new baby, that he won't be scared when he's born." When she asked him why he thought the baby might be scared he said, "Well, when he comes out there will be all these strange people and sometimes it's scary to meet new people."
No one could be happier that he is here than me! Being pregnant . . . not my favorite thing. But I feel very blessed to have another healthy baby. Right now we're still in hibernation mode--feeding, sleeping, changing diapers, staring in awe at my beautiful baby and repeat. Despite the sleep deprivation, hormonal changes, etc. I try to remind myself to enjoy the moment. It only happens once.

Kathryn! He's beautiful! I can't believe all of that hair, and 9'14"-wow! (ouch!) I love the name. We're thinking about using Benjamin ourselves when the time is right. Congrats! Say hi to the fam for us. We love you all!
This is actually Becca, not Swen. I didn't realize he was the one who was signed in. I'm sure he'd say the same thing, though.
Beautiful baby Enoch!! Oh, I can't wait to see him and hold him. I'm so glad all went well with the delivery and that you have another healthy boy to love. Thanks for updating the blog with pictures, we've been dying to see what he looks like.

What a beautiful little baby! ... and you didn't have to have a c-section! You go girl!! Kathryn, he really is just beautiful. I have a poem about my last baby - a boy - knowing he was my last I truly treasured every single moment. I posted it on my blog a few blogs back. When you get a minute you might want to read it - I'll bet it is just the way you will feel with so many others to do for during your busy day - and having to share baby Enoch with so many during the day ... well, the poem says it all. Give him a love for me! He is beautiful!
