He's here!!!

So I'm incredibly late posting this, but yes, our son finally decided to meet the world!!! Colby Curtis Cameron arrived on Friday, December 7, 2007 at 3:22 am weighing in at 7 lbs. 11 oz. and 19.5" long. He came out showing us that he has a very healthy set of lungs! Grandpa and Auntie Kristy (who were waiting in the lounge) could hear him as soon as he arrived! He is the cutest (although I'm a little biased!) with big blue eyes and a full head of light brown hair. He's a very alert baby and has been since he was born. He enjoys "showing off" (according to his dad) how well he can hold his head up already. He's a pretty strong little guy and has been lifting his head since the day he was born. He's a really great baby and is doing very well. He has actually slept through the night twice so far (in 2 1/2 weeks of being here!)

I am adjusting well to motherhood and loving every minute. It was really great to have Gerry home for the first week after he was born. It was really hard to see him go back to work the second week! But with the craziness of the holiday season, time has flown by and I can't believe he's going to be three weeks tomorrow! I can't believe how fast he's growing and changing already. He is absolutely adorable and certainly looks like his dad (little lips and all!)

We had a great Christmas, although Colby slept through Christmas morning and most of the day after meeting more aunts, uncles, and cousins. He is getting back to normal now after a very busy few days and late nights celebrating the Christmas season with family.

We are having a great time with the two grandsons on the McCracken side of the family. We are convinced that Colby and our nephew, Landon, who is 10 weeks older than Colby, are going to be the best of friends, just like their moms! :) I'm pretty certain that my parents are totally loving every minute of being grandparents too!!! Mom scoops up the boys as soon as we walk in the door, which is great to see!

Hope everyone had a great holiday season and I'm sorry that my updates are so late! I will try very hard to continue to update the blog more regularly... things are a bit busier these days with a three week old baby and Christmas. Forgive me?? :)

Take care and Happy New Year!
