Our New Little Surprise

Okay, so just to preface this....sorry about the delay in getting pics up and also sorry about how many pics we ended up posting on here haha.....we narrowed it down to these pictures, but ya....we might have gotten carried away, but oh well.... :)

So, Mary came up with the idea that on this kid, we wouldn't find out the gender until it was born...at first, I was against it because I wanted to plan things out and be prepared...but we agreed on it. And I have to say, it was such a neat experience. I mean, it would be exciting if we already knew (like we did w/Korbin), but it just added a little excitement to the whole thing.
We started off the morning by getting up at 5:00 in the morning....ugh...neither of us got much sleep last night, so we were tired, but very eager to find out who this little person was that we were going to have in our lives after today!

We got to the room and they did all of the prep stuff and then whisked Mary off into the O.R. I got to dress up in a fancy shmancy outfit with booties and a cap again! I had to wait several minutes to meet them in the O.R. because it turns out they couldn't find the doctors! lol, it was kinda funny..

Anyway, the doctor's were operating for a few minutes and then said "does dad want to say if it's a boy or a girl?" So naturally, I stood up and I see my child face down with the doctor's hand covering its little bottom haha! He said "here you go!" and uncovered it and, welp, it's a boy! My first image of my son was him mooning me! lol....Haha, anyway, the doctors were great and had fun with it. Oh and another cool thing is that they had music playing in the room while they were operating....not DMX-style gangsta music, but nice, light, relaxing music. He was born when Train - Soul Sister was playing....you should youtube the song if you've never heard it before....anyway....here are a few pics from when he was about 30 seconds old!

Oof! He had a rough first few minutes!

Awww....our first family pic together......wish Korbin coulda been there too :( :( The hospital implemented some strict visiting rules though, so no visitors under 14 allowed...guess our little boys will have to wait a couple days to meet each other!

He was having a hard time getting all the fluid out of his lungs, so they hooked him up to this little martian head thing to help him clear everything out. The little trooper made it through it though!
Strikin a pose for the ladies ;)

Ahhhh.....just relaxin....
Look at those pretty eyes looking at mommy! So cute!Me and the little guy #2
Ahh....gotta love the first few tar diapers.....notice the gloves...no way I'm gettin that Sh!t on me! lol!
Okay, so Mary and I think this picture looks Just like Korbin! It is one of my favs so far though...he's so peaceful and cute...

We love our new little addition to the family!

oh, and P.S. the little guy's name is Quinn Daniel Nelson
