ERIK THOMAS SMITH is HERE!

We are so excited to have Erik with us finally! For those who don't know already, he was born August 29th just before 10 pm. He weighed 9 lbs 9 1/2 oz, and he was 20 inches long. YEESH! he is a big baby! Biggest of all the boys! And he was a WEEK early! So he would've been over 10 lbs if he were born on time!! Thank goodness he was early! My labor was the shortest with him than with the other three, which was so great since I was having another natural birth. Everything went as smooth as it could possibly go. I was blessed with strength and endurance and good support from Heber and the midwife. Things couldn't have gone any better. :) And now we another healthy boy who is so good to his mamma. :) He lets me sleep 5 hours a night. :) He isn't much of a fussy baby. He eats good, and just keeps getting cuter every day he's with us. His brothers just adore him! Every morning when the boys wake up, they come running into my room to see him and kiss him and giggle over how cute he is. :) We love him so much!
