Jackson Cody Powers finally arrived at 12:13am on November 22, 2008 after a 20 hour labor! He was 8 lbs 3 oz and 20 inches long. Lis is recovering well and Jackson is healthy and strong. He had a little bit of Jaundice but it is mostly gone by now. Jackson is adjusting to being at home and mom and dad are adjusting to two hour sleep schedules. He is a very content little boy, especially if he's been fed. Everybody is doing well and we're so excited that Jackson is a part of our lives.

Only 2 days until due date!!



Well, here's my belly at 40 weeks. This will be the last belly picture. I went to the doctor last tuesday and she told me I was only dilated to a one but sent me to the hospital because I had high blood pressure. After a short stay in triage, they did some testing and everything turned out fine so they just sent me home. My due date is on the 18th and we're just playing the waiting game right now. Cody has been so wonderful and helpful and I don't know what I'd do without him. If I haven't gone into labor before friday, I do have a scheduled induction friday morning at 5:30 a.m. We will let everyone know when it happens!!
