Visitors

One of the best things about having a baby as that people come to visit. We have a had lots of visitors and it has been great. Thanks to everyone who has come to see Micah and to everyone who have brought us gifts. Jeff and Sarah, a special thanks to you for bringing dinner. The spagetti was great and we really appreciate it. The pictures just show a couple of people who have been by. Sorry if we left you out but we still love ya.

The Big Brother Gift

We got Max a pool for a congrats on becoming a big brother gift. Good idea on our part, he loves it. Jason and Max went for their first swim the other night and they both had a great time. Max was splashing Jason and Jason was chasing Max around. It was really cute to watch. I told Jason I wouldn't make any beached whale jokes so if all of you could refrain from any jokes that come to mind when you see Jay in the pool he would appreciate it.

Max meets his little brother for the first time............

Max came to see us today with Grandma David and Katie. He did much better than we anticipated. He was a little weepy for a bit, but quickly warmed up to the thought of him. He was willing to hold him and hug him , and even gave him a kiss at one point. It was a good first encounter. We'll see how things go as he realizes that Micah is actually coming home with us, and not just a novelty to see at a hospital.

Grandma Tina, Grandpa Roger, Aunt Lori and Matt, Jeff Morin and Kim Tait were all here at some point and got a chance to hang out. Max really enjoyed seeing everybody, and I think the group was a good setting for him to meet his brother in.

Tons of people have called or left messages. We really appreciate it. Steph is doing great of course. She is pretty tough. Micah is doing great as well. He is eating and sleeping like a champ. He actually hasn't pooped yet, but I'm sure that will happen soon enough...........

I"ll keep posting as I get time...........

MIcah Andrew Macdonald has arrived!!!!!!

Micah was born at 0912 via C-section. He weighed 8lb 1oz and was 21 inches long. We think he looks just like Mr. Maximo Allen MacDonald looked when he was born, but time will tell of course.

Everyone is doing great. All are happy and healthy. I have never put anything on here before so if I screw it up bare with me.

One more day

Well, this is it. The last day as a family of three. I am really excited and anxious about tomorrow. I am going to miss Max a lot but I know he will have a ton of fun with grandma and grandpa and I will get to see him at the hospital. I can't believe 9 months has gone by so quickly. It doesn't seem real that we are having another baby tomorrow. I really can't wait to meet him and see what he looks like. I am a little stressed out about the fact that the poor little guy doesn't have a middle name yet. I guess we are going to decide on one on the way to the hospital. Jason's idea, not mine. I woke up at 5:10 this morning and that's all I could think about so I just got up. It did me no good though, we still don't know his middle name.

We will get pictures up on the blog as soon as possible. We can't wait to share him with everyone. Wish us luck and send some prayers our way. I am hoping for a nice easy go of things tomorrow. Max was born with a collapsed lung and we didn't get to hold him for an entire day. It was awful and scary but turned out fine. So I am excited to see what a normal delivery is like. Hopefully we get that. Talk to you guys soon.
