It's About Time!

I know that is what you are all thinking.  I haven't posted in over a month and 2 1/2 weeks after having a baby I still haven't posted even the pictures for said newborn.  Well here you go, all the pictures that have been wonderful for us to view although I must say it's so much better to see in person!

Matthew Alan Hinton was born Monday, February 22, 2010 at 7:18am.  He weighed in at 7 lbs. 11 oz. and was 20 1/2 inches long.  This was a c-section delivery and so there is only the one picture of me in the hospital.  You will also notice that I look awesome!  So in comparing boys Matthew weighted 2 ounces more than David did but David was a whole inch longer than Matthew....so they were pretty close in size.

These pictures were taken with Kelly's camera.  David was much better for Aunt Kelly and not as ornery as he was in our pictures.

We are all adjusting well.  Matthew can sleep 5 hours at a time at night which is nice, however, he doesn't do that every night, just about every other night.  At his 2 week appointment Matthew was weighing in at 8 lbs. 2 oz.  so he's growing well.  David loves being helpful and really does enjoy holding his little brother although never for longer than a minute at a time.  The boys share a room and Matthew has only woken David up once.

Dustin and I are so happy to have another baby in the family.  We love that we have two boys and hope that they will be great play mates in the years to come.  We have been so blessed with our family and we are happy to be together.

Congrats!!! He is adorable and sounds like a pretty good baby too. Hope you're adjusting well. I always though going from 1 to 2 was the hardest...;)

a gaggle of boys *is* fun...and david will become more interested in mtthew the older he gets. boys just don't go crazy for babies -- they don't *do* anything. i remember collin pretty much ignoring jack (except for when jack cried and inturrupted tv time for him, then it was "mom! the baby is being loud!)
we'll see how it goes when we add yet another boy to themix-up!

congrats on another beautiful boy!

What a sweet boy!!! David will soon realize what fun it is to have a brother (once Matthew starts doing stuff)... They will be the best of friends! I hope you are resting up and enjoying your baby, they get big so fast!
