A new baby in the family. 3/30/2011

We got the special privilage to go to Montana to be in the hospital when our little Quinn was born and then to be at the hospital with him the entire time and take him home.  This was such a great experience, seeing how it is our first newborn in the family.  I, Nicole, was able to be in the room for delivery(C-Section) and be the first one to see our angel Quinn come out.  He looked so cute and little.  Quinn did decide to hold his breath a couple times, which helped him go into the NICU.  The nurses were very nice and supportive.  Joey and I were the first ones in to see him.  Birth mom and dad were able to share this special time with us and let Joey and I stay with them in the hospital during the day and go see Quinn together, or take turns seeing him, during the time he was in the NICU.  After 5 days of being in the NICU (due to Juandice and not eating well), Quinn was released from the hospital.  We loved having that first week of Quinn's life to share with just us before we went back home to Kaylee and Daemeon and to see our other family members. 
  Quinn was 7 lbs. 10 oz and 19 inches long when he was born.

 Quinn in the NICU hooked up to the oxygen.  Luckily he only had to be hooked up for 13 hours and then was able to breathe on his own. This was about 2 hours after being born.  3/30/2011

You know how the majority of babies love to be wrapped up tight and have their hands wrapped in the blanket by their face?  Well, Quinn did not.  He would always-and still does-pull his arms out and sleep with them above his head, just like this picture.
