Welcome to the World

Seven Pounds Thirteen Ounces

You know I have 99 million trivial details to share but for now everyone is doing well, loving life, living the dream, eating, drinking chocolate milkshakes and trying to decide who on earth little X looks like ...
(so far the answer is: no clue).

    Yayayayayayayay!!!! Welcome to the world Sebastian Xavier!! Love love love the name.

    In half the pics he looks JUST like the patriarch but in the last two, he's a mini-J.

    Um...did you seriously just give birth and not a hair out of place? Your braid isn't even frayed in the slightest.

    So does this mean I'm having a boy?

    I just burst into tears at my computer. A leeeetle hormonal over here, apparently. SO happy for you!

    I am eating a truckload of homemade mac and cheese in little Sebastian's honor.

    (fantastic name, by the way)

    Can't wait for all the trivial details! Birth stories are the best.

    Wonderful addition to your family! I am so selfish, I thought, "I hope this doesn't mean she is going to start posting less." although it probably does (and should). Can't wait to read the labor story, and I hope Sabastian brings many, many more hilarious stories for our reading pleasure. Julia is about to have her world rocked!!! Congrats, again.

    Congratulations!!!!! He's cute and still too wrinkled to resemble anyone. You look amazing for just giving birth. Good luck over the next few weeks.

    YAY!! Congratulations!! I love the name! And you can tell already he is going to be a good boy because he listened and decided to be born the weekend you wanted him to be.

    And he's definitely not an alien! :) Such a handsome little guy.

    So...I didn't share this initially because it was so close to the miracle of birth and seemed silly. BUT when I first saw this post and showed it to my husband, he looked at the first picture of Sebastian and said: "he looks like his dad...no...maybe Michael C. Hall"
