Simon's first week

Simon had a really good first week...I on the other hand had some moments of feeling helpless. I was so emotional that I had a breakdown about not being able to even go to the grocery store! Bryce started running fever and missed 2 days of school and I couldn't take him to the doctor...thank goodness mom was able to take off work and take him. He had bronchitis and was ordered not to get around Simon. That was really hard because Simon's every need is met by me and then Bryce needed me too...especially the night he had an allergic reaction to the Zpac they gave him! But we survived and have a few pics to remember the week by...enjoy.



Simon and Bryce's hospital pics...I don't think they look alike.


Sweet Simon likes his cradle

Bryce is so proud of his brother

Close up!

We have a pic of Grammy holding Bryce the same way

Bryce is gonna be a good helper

Welcome Simon!

April 7, 2011, at 1:19p.m. we welcomed little Simon to our family. He weighed 7lb 12oz and was 20 in long. He was born at North Mississippi Medical Center Women's Hospital in Tupelo, MS. Here are some photos of the delivery and our days in the hospital.
