Re: Triwizard Champ's Build-A-Family Round 1
LN: Endaline
DH: William Nikolai "Will"
DW: Julia Charlotte
DS: Nicholas Jacob "Jacob"Will and I are so happy to have our baby boy! It felt like he would never arrive. Everything went fine, Nick is now one month old. Close to the end of My pregnancy, Will and I had a small feud about when we would have a second child. I wanted to have another one soon, maybe after a year. Will, on the other hand, wanted to wait at least six years! We were both fuming, but finally Will said that we would just see what happened as things came along. We had both realized how silly we were being- duscussing when to have a second child- We hadn't even had our first! We both said we were sorry, and now find it rather funny!The birth went fine, I wanted to have my baby naturally, but he was such a big boy that an emergency C-section was nessecary. Soon enough I hadour baby boy!:
Full Name: Nathan Jonah
Length: 22"
Weight: 9 lbs, 1 oz
Date of Birth: June 2Nathan name was decided the day before I had him! I wanted to name him Jonah, which Will liked- but he really wanted to name our first son Nathan, after his father, who died when Will was thirteen. I knew how special his dad was to him, and I liked Nathan a lot, so we finally decided on Nathan Jonah. We are both really satisfied with this name! When we brought Nathan home, we were welcomed by my mother, and Will's mother. We invited them over to help for the first few days, until we got used to being Mommy and Daddy, and then said anyone could visit. We had no trouble with Nathan, he was pretty, drowsy, but still awake most of the time. Nathan's room is bright and cheery yellow, with a white crib and dresser. Most of his bedding is yellow, but the changing table, rocking chair, and most of his clothes are blue! It's an adorable room, and we store all of his 'baby things' in his dresser and closet, as opposed to scattered around the house. Wel also prepared home-made dinners and breakfasts for the first days with Nathan, so that we wouldn't have to cook. As you can see, I wasn't very busy for the last month!In the first day with Nathan home, we did a lot of feeding. He ate approximatley every two to three hours. We also gave him a bath- he didn't like it much, he had quite a fit- but after that, he remained quite happy and content with me, Mommy, or Will, Daddy, holding him! We enjoy it too. When it was time to put him to sleep, he screamed for a long time. We were afraid it was going to be a completely sleepless night for everyone: Me, Will, the new Grandmommy's, and Nathan! We were expecting the worst when he finally got to sleep- but he slept from 11:00 pm to 3:00 am, then 3:45 am to 7:03 am. We were so pleased! We can tell he is going to be an excellent sleeper once he gets used to it.Will is a great dad, as enthusiastic as they get. He even changes the diapers happily! I also love being a mom. We can't wait to have more children!
