bump #90: Oliver is here!

 On Thursday, March 19, Oliver made his grand debut!

 
He is absolutely precious, super alert, very happy, loves having his picture taken (obviously!)
and THE BEST THING that has ever happened to us.
 
 
We stayed at the hospital from Thursday morning through Sunday night and they took excellent care of us. This is our first full day at home and we are so grateful to have my mom staying with us the next two weeks to cater to our every need help in every way. She has been wonderful at taking ALL the pictures to document this amazing time and I can't wait to share them with you... if I ever catch up on sleep enough to upload and post them :) 

 
We are loving every moment of new parenthood and just can't stop looking at him. For reals!
We haven't slept in days because we don't want to miss a single second.
 
Here is our first official photo as a family of THREE!
 

Oliver is really here and he is really ours and we are really blessed! Thank you for all of the prayers that brought us to today... his due date. So glad he came out early so we could spend even more time with him!
 

Coming up... Oliver's birth story and why a C-section was the way to go.
