Baby Asher making his grand arrival!
What a wonderful moment- to hear your babys first cry.
Feelings of relief, joy, love, and gratitude that this little person that has shared your body for the past 9 months is finally here and safe. I know I will never forget that feeling.

What a little miracle....
The hospital was encouraging doing skin to skin contact right after birth which is something I didn't get to do with my girls. I really enjoyed it and I would highly suggest it to other moms. He immediately calmed down and it was a really neat bonding experience.
(Sorry if that was little TMI)
My labor and delivery went really well with Asher. I started having consistent contractions on Thursday night after doing some Christmas shopping with my mom. I went to bed thinking that they would probably go away- because they usually did if I laid down. Then I woke Chad up at 2:30 in the morning and said this has to be the real thing because they are not stopping and I'm really hurting! We called Chad's sister Kelsi to come sleep at our house so she could be there for the girls when they woke up in the morning ( Thanks Kels) and headed to the hospital. I was dialated to a 4 1/2 and my doc broke my water and checked me in. I delivered him 45 minutes after I got my epidural with only a couple pushes. Very nice and smooth- Just what we prayed for with this little surprise :)
Wow that's a lot of offspring in my bed! ;)
A very Proud Daddy!
Big sis needed a little practice holding a baby- we've been working on that!
The girls thought the hospital was pretty cool- the treats were probably more exciting than the new baby, they also loved to push the call light button and the emergency pull in the bathroom. Needless to say their visits where short and sweet :)
Loving my sweet little guy

Chad would like to note that our first big snow storm came right after Asher was born- he's pretty sure that its a sign that this is going to be his life long snowmobile buddy!
Just had to throw in a picture of how tiny he looked in his carseat on the way home.
and now the adventure begins......................................

What a precious and handsome little boy. I wish I could squeeze him and stare at him all day too. He is just a beautiful baby!
Wow! Nice work on going as far as you did with everything that led up to it and can I please be like you and deliver fast and a little baby would be great too! (Not that Maria was big...but the smaller to pack around beforehand!).
