Jaxon Jeffrey Garner

He is finally here! Jaxon was born on June 16, 2009 at 5:41pm. He weighed 7 pounds 1 ounce and was 21 inches long! I can't believe how amazing it is to be a mom! Dan and I are so happy and can't believe how much we love him! He is such a good baby, he hardly ever cries and we are very thankful for that! The delivery went well, I had a few MINOR complications after which have caused my whole body to swell! My feet and hands are HUGE and my face has even swelled up too - they say it takes about a week to go down so I am hoping that I start to look like a normal person tomorrow or soon after.

Jaxon had jaundice (if that is how you spell it) so he has been on lights. We are lucky though because the hospital gave us some to bring home so he didn't have to stay at the hospital. We got to take him off today and tomorrow we will get his blood tested again. If the levels have gone down then we don't have to do the lights anymore! The poor little guy has had his heel pricked almost every day since he was born and I am so happy that we won't have to do that anymore!

Well - below are pictures of my cute little man and some from Fathers Day as well. Dan, Jaxon, and I both love our dad's/grandpa's and are so grateful for EVERYTHING they do for us! They are so amazing and we couldn't ask for more!

And now to the new father. Dan has been the most AMAZING husband through everything. During my pregnancy, delivery, and now. He is already a great father to Jaxon and I can't believe how much closer having our little guy has brought us! I don't know what I would do without him! I love you Dan! Thank you for everything you do for Jaxon and me. You are the best and WE love you!
