Does life get any better than this??

Baby Dane Andrew Bodily was born on the 8th of October. He will get to share this birthday with his Grandma Richards. She couldn't be happier about that! I was admitted into the hospital at 10:30am and at 10:03pm he was born. I had a great support system by my side. Of course Eric was a champ but I also had my parents and Eric's cousin Brit. My labor went really well. When Dane arrived he hardly cried. He just looked around at everyone and everything around him. He is such a great baby. We just love him. He weighed 7 lbs and was 20 inches long.

Here I am eating my ice chips. Ice never tasted so good!


Dane and Dad


The proud Papa


Grandma and her Birthday boy

Lara surprised us and flew out today. Friday night she couldn't sleep knowing that he was here and she hadn't seen him. She jumped on the first flight she could get this morning. He loves his auntie.


Have you ever seen such a more kissable face?


Big yawn for such a little boy


He also has a ton of hair!


We couldn't be happier than we are right now. We can't wait till we can introduce him to the rest of our family. We have decided that we are going to bless him in November in Utah so he can meet his Aunts and Uncles and see all his cousins. Also his Great Grandma Pat need to get ahold of him. We have waited for him for so long. I just can't imagine my life without him. We love him so much.

He really is amazing! I feel to blessed to be able to be a part of his little life. I honestly could just sit and hold him for hours at a time! My favorite thing is hearing him make his little squeaks and grunting noises while he sleeps! Adorable!
