He's Here!

Here is our new PRIDE and JOY....Xavier David Knott.
I cannot tell you the feeling of sheer joy and wonder of having a baby. It is the most amazing thing.
So far he has been an excellent baby. He is a little confused on sleeping and eating times, or shall I say times that work best for me :) but it about him now so when he wants to eat, mom lets him eat! He and daddy are enjoying a nice nap right now which gave me some time to take a much needed shower and check some emails and throw a load of laundry in

Here he is in most of his splendid glory! He was born at 5:31pm on Wednesday February 11, 2009. Weighing in at 8 pounds 7 ounces and 22 inches long! Just like his mama, only I was 21 inches long. Luckily he was not a 9 pounder, but his daddy already has him doing some lifting and encourages all feedings for weight gaining!

His name in his new room!

Leaving the hospital


I also cannot say what a great dad and coach Jake was while I was in labor! He definitely has "coaching" abilities that we will see some day! He was so loving and supportive and I know I would not have lasted 3.5 hours in labor without him! Thanks Jakey, love you! :)
I will try to post some new and updated pics this week because as we all know, they change daily!
Thank you to everyone who visited us or is visiting us, we appreciate all your love, support and guidance! Thank you!
