First Post

Okay so this isn't my first blog... I'm ashamed to say I don't even KNOW where my first blog is... floating in cyber space somewhere I'm sure!

However I want to give this ONE MORE try. Considering I have my new baby boy here and all. It'll be nice to be able to talk about him and allow friends and family to see it.

Let's start with the basics. My name is Heidi and I'm 26 years old.. I've been married to my wonderful husband, Steve, for a little over 2 years now. On July 26th 2008 the most amazing miracle was brought into our lives. Our little boy James Eugene. He was born at 5:52 pm and weighed 7 lbs 10 oz and was 19 inches long.

James is now 2 weeks and 2 days old. Boy have our lives CHANGED in just 2 short weeks! It's amazing to see your heart living outside of your body. I'm not kidding, everything I do, I think of that little boy FIRST. He gets fed first, he gets attended to first, and if I have a spare moment (and so far I have had a few thanks to the generous help of my mom and husband) then I will take care of me.

So far James has proved to be one smart kid. He is already turning onto his side... he did that about 1 week old. He figured out how to get out of a swaddle at 2 days old and has hated that since. He's just a smart smart baby... we are going to have a handful with him!
