Introducing Jack Folsom
John Matthew Folsom - aka, Jack - was born on June 15th at 2:15am. He weighed in at 9lbs 1 oz and is 21 inches long. We are so glad to finally have him here. I went in on Sunday night (the 13th) to begin the induction process because at my last growth check they were estimating that he was around 9lbs 11oz. Due to his large size I should have been expecting the labor to be kind of long but since it was my 3rd baby, I was hopeful it would be smooth sailing and go quickly. He is such a good little baby and we love having him home with us. Lauren loves to hold him and is a great big sister. Lydia likes him more than I was hoping. I had hoped she would just mostly ignore him but she loves him too and loves to touch him and kiss on him. My Mom made it out Mon. night to stay with us for a couple of weeks and it great to have her here helping with the girls. Jack had to spend a couple of days in the NICU because his blood sugars kept dropping (I had Gestational Diabetes so he was having a bit of a hard time adjusting) but he is doing really well now. He has the best cheeks to snuggle and kiss and we are so happy to have him in our family! He was definitely worth the hard pregnancy and long labor.
Sorry the photo's are all out of order - my computer is having issues.
Lydia was more interested in her new Barbie that Jack gave her at the hospital.
Check out those cheeks! The biggest baby in the NICU.

Lauren was so excited to meet him. It seemed like a very long 9 months to her.

I didn't realize he was born on June 15th. Connor was born on June 14, the year before. He is such a cute chubby little baby. I'm glad you got him here safe and sound. It sounds like a miserable pregnancy and delivery. I'm sure you're glad to have that over with. Good thing it's all worth it, right?
