A little less than two weeks ago our Declan made his arrival in the afternoon. After spending about 3 hours in the hospital he arrived and is perfect. It was a peaceful, non-medicated delivery where the only additions to the room were the nurses and doctor. We are so grateful that all of our wishes were honored and supported, which made this birth story more intimate and calm, a direct juxtaposition to Baby Love's delivery. We are working on his birth story, but wanted to give a few details and pictures!

There are truly so many people that we want and need to thank for their help and love to our family, but know it would start to sound like an Oscar acceptance speech. Suffice it to say that this delivery and recovery truly took our small village of support people, all of whom we are incredibly grateful for.

    Thanks for sharing this, Abbey! I love all of your pictures, especially the last one of your two boys together. Enough to melt my heart as well. :) Congratulations again!
