The Born Family: August 2012

When we first found out that we were having a boy I spent many, many hours shopping for little boy clothes. Now, three years later many of those cute little boy clothes have been worn by all 3 of our boys.

Today's blog is dedicated to some of the cute little clothes that each boy has worn.

The sad thing is that I didn't get pictures of each of the boys wearing all the outfits.

However, there are some that made the cut.

Are you able to guess who is who?

1. The Toronto Maple Leaf Outfits

3. The Dino Outfit.

3. The Froggy Outfit.

4. The Blue Newborn Sleeper

5. The Newborn Lamb Sleeper

6. The Rockstar Outfit

7. Our little Green Dressy Shirt

8. Another Rockstar Outfit

If you haven't already guessed most of the pictures go oldest to youngest.

And the little Red Head is Bryant.

It's about time that we updated our family Blog. 2+ months later & we are adjusting to 3 boys.

Trying to get time to update blogs is a challenge.

Trying to get pictures of all 3 wiggle worms is also a challenge.

But here we go....
Our 3 little boys stories from the beginning.

Hudson David Born
Joined our family Saturday May 26, 2012 @ 8:45AM

Weighing in a 8 lbs 5 ounces, 20 inches long.

A week before he was born we decided to go ahead with a scheduled c-section because he had been lying sideways for 10+ weeks. This was our 1st scheduled c-section & 1st c-section that Dave & I would actually be awake & in the operating room for the event. That morning we were both pretty nervous driving to the hospital but the hardest part was the pre-op stuff. Ugh! After that everything went so quickly & smoothly & I was feeling great by the next morning. The staff were wonderful. The nurses, physician & anesthesiologist were so nice & so friendly & made the whole experience great.

Funny thing is that when we got on the operating table Hudson had flipped head down. After 10+ weeks of headstands, chiro appointments & tricks to try make him flip & he waits until the last minute.We decided his birthday was May 26th.

Hudson is now a little over 2 months old & my little buddy.

He is such a happy baby. He loves to smile & I love holding him every minute of the day.

He is also now 12 lbs 7 ounces, 70% for height, weight & head size.

Myles Joseph Born

He was born on May 25th, 2010 @ 12:22am.

7 lbs, 15 ounces. 20 1/2 inches long.

Myles was born all natural. When I found out I was pregnant for a second time I was determined to prove I could deliver naturally & I did. After 6+ hours of labour & 20 minutes of pushing he arrived. He was a lot of work but I was determined to do it.

When I called my parents that night the first thing I said was "I did it".

The funny thing is Myles is also a determined little man.

His favourite saying to his parents is "I said no".

Myles had turned 2 a day before Hudson was born.

Myles is a great big & little brother.

Bryant Alexander Born

He was born September 24th, 2008.

7 lbs 1.6 oz. 20 & 3/4 inches long.

Arrived as an emergency c-section that was not at all out of the ordinary.

Bryant will be 4 this upcoming summer.

He loves his little brothers.

Here are all 3 boys with their daddy during their first few days of life.
Dave though it was important to represent the boys Canadian heritage by wearing his Toronto Maple Leaf shirt to each of their births.
