Logan is here!


It has been a very eventful few weeks! Last Wednesday (9/28) I got to spend a few hours at labor and delivery due to severe back pains.  The dr. was worried it might be an infection, but instead determined early back labor.  I had a follow up appointment on Monday (10/3), where all of the sudden my blood pressure was registering high - back to labor and delivery for a few hours.  That being said, on Tuesday, October 4 we headed in to Labor and Delivery at 5am for the real thing - induction style. 

At 5:43pm, after over 12 hours of labor (the hardest labor of all 3 kids), Logan Patrick Magee joined the world.  He weighs 8 lbs, 1 oz (the same that Hailey did at birth and just an ounce lighter than Kaelin was).  He was measured at 22 inches (though later we learned he is closer to 21" - there was some molding on his head that added to his original length).   He has the worlds LONGEST toes (seriously, his big toe is almost the size of Hailey's thumb!).  His hair seems to be a very light brown/dark blond with hints of red, but there isn't much of it.  His eyes (as of now) are a very dark grey blue.  He is beautiful and perfect!





His big sisters LOVE him.  Hailey says he's her baby boy.  They both always want to check on him and hold him (even if its only for a 10 second moment).  






These are the pictures the hospital photographer got of him on Thursday.  They turned out very well!









We got home from the hospital on Thursday afternoon.  It was gorgeous out! We enjoyed a family picnic out back.  


Had to take a picture of the toes :).

Yesterday Logan had his first dr. appointment.  He has lost only about 6 oz (which is really good).  He is eating well and sleeping well and is a joy to have in our family.  I am good as well - though tired and sore (to be expected).  I am feeling so blessed by our three beautiful children!

Congratulations on Mr. Logan! He is a cutie. He and Taylor share the same birthday ~ fun coincidence. I am sure he is in excellent hands with Kaelin and Hailey to help out. :D
