Default Samuel Porter

Hi ladies! Sorry I've been absent - but I thought I'd update you.

Porter was born on March 28th at 9:19am. He was 7 lbs, 4 oz and was 22 inches long. We're so in love.

If someone tells me how to post pictures from photobucket - I'll share

Congratulations on the birth of your son. That is wonderful news. I would love to see pics. So how is life with a newborn going?

I do hope you can post pics, I'll have a go here in describing how to add them to your reply...

If your pics are on already on photobucket,:
Start a post, or reply, then also open photobucket and left-click on the IMG code (bottom one) of the pic you want to share, this automatically copies the code required for posting pic on SK. Go to your post and right-click and paste (or paste from tool bar) and dahdah your pic will be in your post!

Just to make sure this works....here goes.......a pic of Mason at 11 months I think!

Thanks ladies!!

Life with a newborn has been my favorite 3.5 weeks of my life. I've had the sweetest highs and most terrifying lows - I'm willing to do all of it - any of it - for this little boy.

I want him to grow very very slowly. I cried when his first week was over - simply because it had ended and I could never have his first week again. I routinely stick my nose in his mouth when he yawns so that I can smell his milky breath. He brings out the sweetest things in me - and in everyone he touches. Even my cynical father that drinks entirely too much and is late to his visiting times is letting us call him "Pappy" and glows whe he holds his grandson.

Lucky, lucky us.

He is ADORABLE! Congrats!

I know what you mean. I can't wait until they're older, but I don't want them to get any older in the same regard!
