Baby surprise #2

is a BOY!

Kaspar James was born last Saturday around 9am, after 8hrs of labor, weighing 7lb 8oz, and measuring 20in long. He was a trooper during a very fast active labor (~2hrs) and a faster pushing session (20 minutes). Night and day different from the way his brother came into this world (36hr labor with 2hrs of pushing...oy.)

little man and i are healthy, the husband is being a rockstar supporter, my mom is here and being an absolute ANGEL, and all my friends and family and sisters and aunts at home are making me feel the love.

because the labor was so much shorter this time, my recovery has been much faster. i already feel ready to run! i won't though--don't want to mess with the whole uterus-returning-to-it's-natural-place/size/position business. but i did go for a walk today, and it was glorious. 

here's to happiness, and to being the queen of a family of all BOYS.
