On June 13th at 9:52 am we became a family of 4(5 including Hershey). Alexander Curtis Cosgrave was born weighing 6lbs 6oz & was 19.75 inches long. He looked just like his sister. Katie was so excited to meet him & hold him. Unfortunately my Csection was another bad one & it's going to take months of healing. Boo to that. At 1 week old he weighed 6lbs 1oz & at 2wks 2d he was 6lbs 4.5oz. He's probably at his birth weight now, at almost 3 weeks. Same as his sister was, with weight loss & gain in the first few weeks. It's been a crazy busy few weeks, not just from having 2 kids but because of all the appts we've had. Mostly mine but a few of Bubba's/Bubbie/still trying to figure out a good nickname. Alex has met his Grandma(my mom), his Nini & Appa(mike's parents), & his Auntie Tricia(my sister). Katie loves being a big sister! She loves to hold him & help with him. She's been a huge help, like I knew she would. Breastfeeding has been a journey but he's finally got the hang out of it.
I'm not sure what else to write. My mind doesn't work too well currently. I'll write more later I'm sure but just wanted to share the basic info. Our son is here & it's crazy surreal. :)
