Wet Boyd!

It is so fun being parents!!! I guess you might argue that after getting virtually no sleep for over a week, you can giggle over just about anything. But watching Boyd get his first little sponge bath from Shelly was more than I could handle. I'm just amazed at how much personality I'm noticing in the little guy. Yep, i'm totally smitten : )

Boyd doesn't have too much of a winter coat, so he does not like losing his clothes!

A little happier now, he liked the warm water in the washcloth!

He's a total cuddle-bug, and SOOOO cute

The last picture's flash caught his attention, and made for a perfect picture of the little guy!

All bundled up and smelling sweet!

Just some random shots from the hospital

I actually really enjoyed my stay at the hospital. Good Samaritan in San Jose took great care of Boyd, myself, and even my many visitors! They gave me free room service whenever I wanted it, and had a stocked pantry for all my family that came by.

While I was being induced, I was kinda jealous of Q, that he could have all the yummy treats in the pantry, while I was only allowed to sip on 1/2 a styrofoam cup of apple juice! For 13 hours! Q told me about some "Otter Pops" in the pantry freezer, but the nurses would not let me have one until after the delivery. So immediately after, while the doctor is stitching, and I am nursing, all I could think about was that delicious, icy cold, Otter Pop! Q brought it to me, and the nurse said, "wow, you are already multi-tasking!" I had 2 Otter Pops, 2 Popsicles, 2 strawberry Jellos, and 3 cups of juice within 30 mins of Boyd's arrival!

Burping my cute guy!

Settling him into his vibrating chair, and man does he love that binky!

Me Loving Boyd, and Boyd loving his blanket

2 days old, and already holding his pacifier in!

Ok, he still needs some practice!

Bath Time!

After arriving in my recovery room, Boyd got a visit from one of the nurses who gave him his first bath. I think he liked it!

More Boyd

I know you guys are sick of him already, but I can't get enough!

Grandma couldn't wait, and surprised us with a visit at the hospital

We are still trying to get Berkley away from him... She cannot stop hovering over her first little cousin!

Daddy and Boyd celebrating the Dodgers making the playoffs! GO DODGERS!!!

Finally, after 3 days in the hospital, they let us go home... here we are, all packed up, and ready for Boyd's first car ride!

4 days old, crashed out in his chair... what a life! : )

Welcome Baby Boyd!!!

Hello all! Everything went wonderfully, and Boyd Douglas Wilcox was born at 11:09 AM on Friday, Sep. 26th!!! As you can imagine, we are so happy and proud! He weighed in at a whopping 6lbs. 15oz., and is 19 in. long. Shelly is recuperating at the hospital, but is in good spirits and hopes to be home soon. Enjoy the pics!

Shelly's arrival at the hospital for her induction... we were a little nervous!

Settling in for the night

Shelly and little Boyd, awwwww!

The Wilcox family, and our great doc Dr. Hur!

The man of the hour, Boyd Douglas!

A few days from delivery...

Here is a picture that Q took of me last night---right before the big day! It looks like the doctor is going to induce me on Thursday night, and I will have my little one on Friday, Sept. 26th. I am a little scared, but it is nice to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Q will be posting pictures on Friday or Saturday, so stay tuned to our blog.

I can blog too!!!

Q's showing me how to post, I promise that you will be seeing much more from me soon!
