Grayson is finally here!


Well the biggest day of my life has finally arrived.  I felt like I had been pregnant FOREVER.  I was beginning to think he would never come out!

Grayson James Hardwick was born April 22, 2013 at 11:06PM weighing in at 8 lbs 13 oz and 21 inches long.  What a big boy!


Just incase someone that is pregnant is reading this blog...let me just say that raspberry tea, balsamic vinegar, eggplant parmesan, mexican, pedicures, chinese, cupcakes, and anything else you have been told will not miraculously induce labor.  Sorry.  My baby had to be forced out.  He was way too comfortable in the womb.  Babies do what they want to do.

I won't go into my entire labor story.  Some of it was easy, some really hard.  The moment he was born was unlike any feeling I have ever experienced.  I cried so many tears of joy...and relief! They laid him on my chest and he immediately stopped crying.  My sweet baby!


We are enjoying getting to know our son.  He is VERY alert and chill.  We have only heard him cry for a few seconds here and there.  Hopefully he will be like this at home.  I better go knock on wood.

I love his smell, his lips, his feet, and the little noises he makes.  He is so precious.

We are blessed parents, loving every minute of it!
