Soren Brent Svendsen- March 5, 2009

Soren Brent Svendsen
March 5, 2009 12:18 pm
7 pounds 8 ounces, 19 inches

Everything went well with the delivery. The c-section was much better this time around- (I liked avoiding the whole "labor" business!) I don't remember much from the day, other than being very drugged and nauseous.

Greta meeting her new, still nameless baby brother. We have been calling him "baby Mo" for months, but realize we have to pick a real name before we go home. It was very stressful!








March 9
We finally picked the name and signed the papers. Soren Brent Svendsen (Yeah for me winning rock, paper scissors!) is ready to go home!

Welcome home Soren! (Greta is still refusing to call him by his name. She is mad we didn't name him Alec, so she still calls him baby Mo.)

One Week Old!

He's darling! Congrats, congrats, congrats - give him tons of hugs & kisses, because, as we all know, he'll grow up way too fast & won't want those hugs & kisses anymore!
