He's here!



Whew! Busy few days! Zane Brinson Eddins arrived Wednesday, March 10th at 10:10 AM, weighing in at a healthy 8 lbs, 13 oz and 20 inches long. Zane has a headful of black hair and dark peach fuzz all over! He's our little monkey! Zane has proven to be extra sweet and is a great baby. He's a good eater and pretty good sleeper, although doesn't necessarily like to sleep during normal hours. Either way, we'll take it. Preston and Zane have definitely had a great start. Preston came to visit us in the hospital and was quick to want to snuggle on the bed with his Mama and new baby brother. Since then, Preston has continued to be snuggly with Baby Z and has even offered to share his pacifier (huge deal for P!).

Everyone is doing great and as soon as we're a little more rested, we'll give a more detailed update. Until then, enjoy some pics and more to come soon!

Baby #2-- Zaney B



Wow, we've kept up with this blog well!

So, what's been going on with us in the past year? Preston, Preston, Preston, work, sold townhouse, bought new house, did some renovations on new house, got pregnant with baby #2, and now are anxiously awaiting arrival of the new baby!

And Baby #2 does have a name-- Zane Brinson Eddins (decided to find out sex ahead of time this go around...we had enough surprises with this one!). Zane is taking his sweet time, but he'll be here on Wednesday, March 10, if not sooner. So far he's given us two impromptu hospital visits-- one false labor scare and another mandated by the doctor to get checked out-- which we're considering good practice for the big day.

We've been talking to Preston a lot about his new baby brother, but we seriously doubt he has any idea what's in store for him. He'll point to his baby brother (in my belly) and hug and kiss him (again, in my belly), but P still has no concept of baby. Guess it doesn't matter much at this point, because Zaney B will be here in tomorrow.

So how has this pregnancy stacked up to the last? Not as easy for sure! Lots of morning sickness, pain and soreness, pretty much every pregnancy side effect under the sun. But no worries, it's all going to be worth it!

We promise to keep up better with the blog for now-- we may change our tune a couple of weeks in, but our intentions are good so far.

Enjoy the extremely attractive 9 month pregnant pic. Who would ever guess there's almost a 9 pound baby in there?! Also a P pic from his last day as an only child. Baby bro on the way tomorrow!
