Happy Birthday Parker

Parker Lee Smith was born today at 3:50 P. M. He weighs 701lbs and he is 20 inches long. We didn't know if we were having a boy or girl so it was so exciting! Dr. Howerton delivered Parker. I saw him when he came out and shouted...It's a boy! Shaun and I were so excited. I can't believe I am a mom. These pictures were right after delivery.


When we got to go to a regular room after delivery we just couldn't stop holing him and staring at him. We love him so much and we just think he is so adorable. He is a little Jaundice so we have to keep him by the window in the sunlight. As long as we keep him in the sunlight enough he wont have to go into one of those light beds.


Shaun got to take Parker out to show all of the family and announce that we had a boy. I love that we didn't know. It made having a baby even more exciting. Everyone couldn't wait to find out what we had. So many people came to see him and us. Here are a few pictures of people who came. I didn't get a picture of everyone so I am just posting some of the closest family.

After I got situated they brought me to a room and Parker got to come back after his bath and see everyone and be held.


Parker hated his first bath at the hospital. He cried and cried until the nurse sprayed his head with water. Then he calmed down completely. I thought it was so great that Shaun got to stay with him the whole time. They bathed him while I was being stitched up and brought to my room.
