What a handsome boy!
First moments in our home
Like father...like sonWell we are pleased to welcome little Austin into our home. He was born on August 24th and the delivery went really well....thanks to my new best friend Mr. Epidural. I did not feel any pain at all which is pretty amazing. I know that when I worked in labor and delivery that people would tell me how awesome the Epidural was but to experience it myself is another story. Austin decided to come 8 days early....thank goodness for that because he weighed 7 lbs 11oz and was 20 inches long. When I look at him I think it is crazy that he was all cramped up inside me. He is huge! Anyway we are at home now and loving it. I forgot that in the hospital you get NO sleep. Austin was good but those dang nurses (haha) kept waking me up. Today we went to Austins first appt. and he passed with flying colors. Horray for healthy babies!! Being a nurse gives me paranoia about every possible disease/condition he could have. Well we hope that you can all meet our sweet little boy soon. We love you all and thank you all for your support!

Yeah Chelsea! Congratulations! He looks a lot like Hans (especially in the hat)! I am so excited for you. I wish I could be there to hod him---next summer for sure!
Congrats. He's sure a cutie (of course). So sweet and tiny.
Congrats!!! What a cutie. I am glad that everything went good, and hurray for early babies..I am a big fan. You look awesome! I seriously think you look like you are back to your tiny self. What is your trick? Hope all is going well.
Congratulations, Chels! He is darling! I'm so glad everything went well, and especially glad he was EARLY! (Late babies are born grounded...) I hope the next days (and weeks and months and years) go really smoothly for you and him. Post lots of pitures!
Yay! We love him!
Congrats! He is so adorable. I can't wait to meet him in person!
Congrats you guys!!!! He's adorable, we can't wait to meet him. I'm sad we didn't get to come see you in the hospital, we just didn't want to take our kids. Let me know if you need anything, seriously.
Little Austin is so adorable! You and Hans are going to be awesome parents! Hopefully next time I get to hold him he won't scream at me! I am going to have to make him love me!

He is so cute. The cutest. What is his middle name? Danger?
Congratulations you two. This little baby boy is so blessed to have you both for parents. He is so precious.
uh, looovve the epidural! I'm glad everything went well! He is adorable!
Congrats Chelsea. He is perfect! Sounds like you had a pretty good delivery and you came early! That's awesome because pitocin is no fun! :D He does look a lot like Hans. So so cute! I really miss the newborn stage, not for all the sleepless nights and endless crying, but the newness of them and especially because they grow up right before your eyes! I hope you love being a mom..it's the best!
