The due date has come and gone...

I fully anticipated a blog post with this title in order to let everyone know that the baby had not arrived and the overdue waiting game had begun.  I am SO thrilled not to write that post! Instead of being impatient and a little annoyed yesterday, we got to experience day four with our little guy and it was wonderful.  He spent some time in the sling for the first time and loved it, as well as ventured back to the big bad pediatrician, we had his jaundice looked at and everything is great. March 28th was the day we had been looking forward to for 9 months and it was a little odd to finally see it come and go but we could not be happier that it came and went and Emmett is here. 

One quick note: I have changed the "ticker" that is on the right side of the blog to count how old our little one is...it is hard to believe it has already been 5 days, I fear is first birthday is around the corner. 

Speaking of birthdays, a quick big HAPPY FIRST BIRTHDAY! to big boy Joshua Emerson. I can't believe that Jon and Amy have a one year old! Congrats Mom and Dad, you had one amazing year and I am so looking forward to years of friendship with you and years of friendship between Joshua and Emmett. Love you guys and I can't wait to see you.

All right...I think that is everything. As always, pictures are below...enjoy!

Sweet baby boy. I love it when his eyes are open!

One happy Buddha!

Buddha learned the "finger sucking" trick. It is a great one!

 

Uncle E took a bunch of "family photos". He did a great job but I hated the way I looked in all of them.  I hate this one the least so it made the blog. The plan was to put on one the birth announcement...it did not happen.

I also hate this picture of me but I LOVE the look of Ryan's face.
