These photos are from the camera phone from when we were still in the hospital. Yes some of you may have seen them already.
Well we've been writing down what he does and when he does it ever since Feb. 4th, and today I am trying to "schedule" him a bit, according to his past habits, so he is napping right now and if all goes according to plan, he'll wake up hungry around 3.30 or 4pm, and sleep heavily until 6pm. (Of course, now that I've figured this out, its basically guaranteed that now this will all go out the window and he'll wake up in 5 minutes and cry til 7. )
He does spend more time looking around with wider eyes which are still dark baby blue, and mostly makes angry disapproving faces at us,but sometimes we are rewarded with a half-smile and a little sigh of contentment.

The Feb.19th update

BABY NEWS AND PHOTOS
Finn had his 2 week checkup on Friday, (has it already been 2 weeks?) and all was well, he weighed in at 9lbs 6oz, and is now 21 inches long.
Its incredible how much he has changed already since the hospital. He has a vast repertoire of facial expressions that keep us entertained, from the "grouchy old man face" to the "drunken sailor" complete with one open eye rolling back and drooling. Its really very becoming. Maisie hasn't figured him out yet, she just gives us mournful looks from time to time and Emily could not care less, as long as nothing interferes with her being fed.

Finally FINN!

It took quite a bit longer than we thought, but the baby finally showed up via emergency c-section. Jenn, ever the trooper, went through 16 hours of 1 minute contractions 2-3 minutes apart only to find that she had dilated only 1.5 centimeters. Since the water had broken half a day before the first contraction, time ran out and so did we from the birth center to the hospital. Some pitocin and an epidural helped a bit, but Finn was determined not to make this easy. After the heart rate dropped it was emergen-C time. Ah well, so much for natural childbirth. 15 minutes after they called it, out popped an 8 pound 14 ounce baby boy (backwards and cord all up around his neck). Finn Benjamin Roberts Marbury defied all the folk wisdom claiming he must be a she and proudly displayed his manhood for all to see.
Below are the first few photos, soon to be followed by more. Thank you to all who wished us well (and thanks for all the stuff!).
We are going to bed now as the hospital sleep deprivation thing is serious business.

Only the due date has arrived

Yes its February 2nd and......no baby yet. Sorry!
Well this baby is half Bahamian, and you know how we go, always running late by a few minutes or a few days. (No, that's not a joke).
Stay tuned...
