Rewind

So we finally got some film developed (yeah, the olden days, I know) from when Judah was first born...as in, the operating room. His very first photos. Now, some of you may think I am brave in posting some of these. I agree. But for those that did not get to be here, you will now get to see what I look like "fat" (aka very swollen from all the fluids being pumped into me as well as post-labor/operation reaction).

They brought him around the curtain for a second right after they pulled him out so I could see him. No pictures allowed yet. Then they took him to get him cleaned up and warm, and Matt was able to take pictures for that. Then they brought him back to me, and I got to touch him. I do remember it, but not too vividly due to the amazing warm numbness that enveloped my body. Not to mention how tired I was from labor.

And all sooo worth the blessing!

And if any of you ever doubted who Judah looks like...take a looksie at some of Matt's baby pictures.

When Dawn says "some that doubted" she really means, "LOOK, JACLYN!" Tee hee hee... of course he looks like Matt, but I think he still looks like you more. You have your rights as parents to pick who you think he looks like... but I am allowed an opinion too. Lol, hey, I WAS right about his gender AND his birth weight :-P

Ok, I think I will let these things go now... off my soap box!

Love you!

LOL To suds your soap box, Jaclyn...more and more people are saying he is growing up to look more like me, especially in the eyes. I still think he'll have Matt's nose though.
