The last time I posted a blog I was still pregnant, so it is beyond time to update. James Samuel Thornton was born on September 30, 2010 at 5:30pm. He was quiet a surprise for us because James was supposed to be Alyson. Yes, thats right, they had told us that we were having a girl. We even had an ultrasound one week to the day before we had him (three days after he was due) and they double checked and said "yup, its still a girl!" Imagine my surprise when John said "Its a boy!" I said, "No, its a girl." and John looked at me and said "No, seriously, Its a BOY!!!"
He is the most perfect little angel. I might be a little biased though. He was 8lbs 5oz and 21 3/4" long at birth. And it looks like he is going to be a very big boy. He had already gained a pound and 4 ounces by his 3 week appointment. He makes John and I laugh constantly, and we even have nick names for him. Monster baby, or pig pig. He snorts when he is happy, and growls like a little monster when he gets upset. He is just a little bundle of fun. He even started smiling the week before last.
We feel truly blessed to have been given such a beautiful son! I feel so luck every morning to wake up next to my wonderful husband and my cute little boy. Oh, and my two foot warmers, Blue and Sneezy. We cant forget the cats. Everyone knows they are really the ones that run the house! I will post the story of the birth right after this. Its a great story and I laugh a little more every time I read it!
