Introducing...

Park Howard Foulger

4/20/10

4:23 PM

8 lbs. 11 oz.

20" long

Handsome!





Our bigger family ( minus me- the mommy!)



On Tuesday, April 20th I had my last dr's appointment. After so many contractions and being 4 days overdue, I asked to be induced. My doctor called the hospital, then told me to head over. I went home to meet Lane and explain to Brecken what was going on. This picture is my "before" picture.



My doctor broke my water at 10:55 AM and by 4:23 I was holding my little boy. My labor and delivery was very smooth, and included only ten minutes of pushing. Thank goodness for epidurals and great, knowledgeable doctors.









Recovery has been good, minus a litttle fainting spell I had that night when I got up to go to the bathroom. Luckily, I had called for Lane because I was feeling light headed, so he caught me- scary.


The Proud Big Sister



She already loves him so much. She has been great!









Park as lots of dark hair, pudgy cheeks, Lane's nose, and my dimpled chin. I think he is the spitting image of Lane's baby pictures, minus the chin. Lane was a little chubbier at 9 lbs 14 oz.








Going home and wearing his first outfit



Sooooo tiny!

YAY YAY YAY!! Congrats! He is such a CUTIE! A big little cutie! How big was Brecken? I LOVE his cheeks! I love Baylee's too, there is just something about cute chubby baby cheeks. :) That's amazing you only pushed for 10 minutes being how big he was, Tayson was 9lb 6 oz, and it took an hour to push. Please let me know if you need anything. Hope you continue to recover well. Brecken is SO CUTE as a big sister, not that she wasn't before of course. What a proud little girl, daddy and mommy! Love it! Thanks for the update, so happy to hear it went so smoothly.

I've been checking your blog from Sharon's blog every few days knowing that your little one would be arriving soon. He sure is a handsome little thing and I can't get over how happy Brecken looks holding him. Glad labor, delivery and recovery went well. Enjoy transitioning to a family of 4! Congratulations!

Peaceful looking little guy. Glad for you honey. He will bring more balance in your family, and the name Park is growing on me already, hope I can remember it. I think Park is the 14th grandchild

Hope to get up there
