Welcome to our little family Jaxon

Well I now can finally share my exciting news... 

On Wednesday 5th November 2014 we welcomed our gorgeous bundle of joy Jaxon Gregory George Milne into our family....

He was born via c section at 8:43am weighing 8 pounds 6 ounces (3800 kg) and measuring 48cm in length...

Bit of a hard start for our little man with him being put into special care for 12 hours after birth due to swallowing too much fluid... he was kept in a humidicrib to try and dry out the fluid....so it was a bit hard not being able to hold him for that time....

Finally he came out of special care only to be put back in 3 days later due to not feeding properly and losing too much weight and slight jaundice... they never found out why (although he was given antibiotics which really helped) but finally 1 week after he was born he was allowed to come home and we were all very happy that our boy was finally on the road to a healthy life...
Everyone is so excited to have a new one in our family but most of all daddy who is a first timer... he is very smitten with his son and won't stop staring at him lol... his big sister is also very much in love with him and being such a big help which is great to see (all she wanted was a brother LOL)
so our little family is now complete and i couldn't be happier... now to get back into some sort of normality with a new bub... and hopefully we will get into a routine soon so i can get into some crafty stuff like starting on his baby album...

off to check on my little man (ok must stop staring at him LOL babies are such time wasters LOL)
