Lighter side of the hospital

Even though labor was pretty tough, the hospital has been pretty good to us. Enjoy some of our fun moments. Getting a quick workout in while at the hospital
Baby lowjack-makes sure the baby doesn't leave without permission


Jess calls this cruising the main hall (notice her flashing her gang sign)


Jess was pretty hungry after not eating for so long. I have never seen her so happy.

YOU DID IT!!!!!!! I DIDN'T WANT TO BOTHER YOU ON THE PHONE YET BECAUSE THAT IS PROBABLY THE LAST THING YOU WANT TO DO RIGHT NOW. I'M SO EXCITED TO SEE BABY T IN MAY!! I CALLED EVERYONE THE SECOND TREVOR CALLED TO SPREAD THE GOOD NEWS BUT NO ONE ANSWERED THE PHONE....STUPIDS.

AND YES, THIS WHOLE CONVERSATION IS BEING YELLED WHICH IS WHY I USED ALL CAPS. I LOVE YOU!!!!

Those newborn diapers can be doosies! It seems like they don't make wipes adequate for those first few "tar" bowel movements. Not to mention the baby seems so fragile. I was hoping I would have the hang of it by the time #2 child rolled along, but . . . nope, it was really hard with the second as well. Way-to-go Lance!

Great news! Glad to hear all are safe and sound. It gets even better from here on out, at least to two months for sure :P

Wow I don't think I've ever seen Jess happier either or Cindy for that matter. Food really does a body good.

Jess, you look absolutely beautiful! Maybe it's the glow of motherhood or the feast to break the fast--either way, you're a babe! Way to go for crusin' the halls already--you really are tough as nails!

Congrats Lance!! Crazy to think you're a dad... but so exciting!! I admit that the labor story scares me a bit though... I'll try to think positive and cross my fingers mine is smooth and easy come September. :) We're going to Hawaii in June if you guys wanna come along... only if you provide the otter pops though. :)

GO Jess GO! I remember how painful that walking can be at first. You really do look amazing! All that laying by the pool with your mom has both of you looking beautifully tan! You guys are having way too much fun in the hospital! Thanks for all the updates! We check daily!

Oh man! That brought back a lot of memories. I remember changing Asher's first diaper and feeling so hungry I can eat two whole pizzas. So much more to come guys, so much more.

Heather said...

I love the pictures! Only you guys would take such hilarious pictures at the hospital. I bet you guys will be glad to get home!

Jessica, you look GREAT in those pictures. You and your mom are looking more and more alike. I really wish I was there to help celebrate Teagan's birth. From what I have heard, you did fantastic and I am so glad you are walking and recovering nicely. I only have a few more weeks and the doctor thinks I will prob be early since I was with Levi. Our little girls are going to be very close in age...FUN!!!!! Call me if you ever get bored. We can chat while we are on our maternity leaves.

Jess you look great!! I am glad Cindy was there to coach you through that first diaper change Lance. Trust you three to turn a trip to the hospital into a good time...well after the yucky part! Love to you all, especially Teagan. She is a little doll!

I'm i big fan of that first picture. Lance's new bench max is at a all time high of 8 pounds 11 ounces. Whohoo!!!! Your the man.

Good job Lance changing your first diaper! I love all the pictures. It's fun to see baby Teagan and you two experiencing the first joys of parenthood. Keep up the good work!
