I LOVE HIS HAIR!!!
How did you luck out to have a baby after a full night's sleep and after only five hours? You are one lucky mama.

He is beautiful. And I love his name. Congratulations.

Wait, please tell me you showered and fixed your hair and all that before taking those pictures because if you look like that right after labor, something is so not fair in this world. You are radiant! As is your addition. I am so happy for you that everything went so well! What a wonderful day for all of you. Congratulations!
