Jackson Levi Davis

 
The Davis family is now a family of 5!!  Jackson Levi Davis was born April 3, 2013 at about 10:20pm.  He weighed in at 7lbs 15oz and 19 3/4in, our biggest baby!  I started feeling the contractions around 3am, but they were spaced far enough apart that i could sleep in between them.  Rick came home from work just after 6am, at about 7am I could no longer sleep due to the pain, so I got up cleaned the kitchen, did laundry, straitened the house, and took a shower.  I called my mom around 8:30 to come over and stay with the kids so we could go to the hospital and be checked. (Poor Rick hadn't slept since the day before.)  We arrived at the hospital shortly after 9am, they were completely packed, so we were sent to the waiting room until something opened up.  we spent 2 hours in the waiting room, before they finally called us back.  We were then put in a triage bed in the hallway where I labored for another 3 hours. Finally around 3-4pm they finally put me in a room and gave me an epidural!  Things were much better after that, until they broke my water.  Jackson was born just less than an hour after they broke my water. 


 
The next day my Mom and Merrie brought Matthew and Lilly to the hospital to see the baby!  Matthew was very excited!!  Lilly was excited but more reserved.

 
Matthew wanted to hold him and kiss on him and love him!

 
Lilly missed her daddy!!


 
Lilly finally warmed up to him and wanted to hold him.

 
Our first family pictures!

 
They discarged us shortly after 7 and we all headed home together!

 
After we got home Matthew wanted to constantly hold Jackson and help burp him!


 
So far Jackson has been our most easy going baby!  He sleeps great, hardly cries eats well, all around a great baby!!  We all love him so much and the kids seem to be adjusting really well to having a new baby!!  We couldn't be happier with our new little addition!!!
