Sawyer Call Brown came into this world last Thursday, January 28, 2010 at 12:52 p.m.. He weighed 7 lbs., 9.9 ounces and was 19 1/2 inches long. He has 10 fingers, 10 toes, lots of black hair.....and is absolutely perfect! I can't believe he is finally here and our family is complete (we think)!! I was scheduled to be induced, but when I got to the hospital I was having regular contractions about 6 minutes apart and was dilated to a 4+....so they considered me in "active labor" and did not call it an inducement.....I am proud to say I went into labor all by myself! I have been induced with the other 3, so I considered this to be quite an accomplishment.....Troy was hoping for an ohmygoshmywaterjustbrokewehavetogettothehospitalNOW moment, but this was good enough for me :). Today, Sawyer is 1 week old and so far has been an absolute angel! He is sleeping well, eating well, and only cries a little when he has his bath. All of the kids have done really well....even Chloe. She was a little miffed when I got home and didn't want to have much to do with me. I think she was mad that I disappeared for a couple of days and came home with this other "thing" that everyone fusses over and calls "baby"......after all, she is still the "baby".....right?! Well, we have been re-bonding each day and things are almost back to normal (even though she prefers Troy over me EVERYTIME she gets the chance).....but we are working on it! Here are some pic's of Sawyer:
