He's Here.... and 2 weeks old!

Connor Steele Dezarn is here and he is 2 weeks old. I have been a bit of a slacker with the blog... being a new mommy is a full time job and does not leave much time to get on the computer and update.

Connor arrived on Tuesday, July 10th @ 11:45pm after 31 hours of labor. I ended up being induced on Monday, July 9th as my blood pressure got high. I had to be put on pitocin to induce labor and also on magnesium to keep my blood pressure in check. That is the reason for the FOREVER long labor as magnesium is what they give women to stop labor. The two medicines ended up fighting against eachother but I was still able to have a vaginal delivery, which I was very thankful for.

Connor weighed in a 6 pounds and 14.8 ounces and was 20.75" long.... our long, lean little man :)

Below are a few pictures from his first two weeks.....

At his two week pediatrician appointment he was up to 7 pounds 3 ounces which is great.... it means he is getting what he needs and growing. We cannot believe it has already been two weeks!
