Have You Met Rhett Yet?

March 9th, 2008

Now that we're home, I wanted to do a more official announcement for Rhett. Here he is in his Dixie Regional Medical Center shirt.He's being a little cheeky right now. He won't give us a really good picture, and he's decided he doesn't want to eat very much. He's also a little jaundiced, so we have to take him out in the sun today. We've got a follow-up appointment tomorrow to check his bilirubin levels.


He's a pretty small guy. It's amazing how big Owen seems now that Rhett is here.



Everyone is pretty tired, but we're all extremely thrilled to have this little miracle in our lives now.


BONUS PICTURE:
The doctor said this was one of the longest umbilical cords he's ever seen.

I love him, and you sure are right when you have a toddler, they seem really small. Hard to beleive that the other child was ever that size.
Also wholly molly, what a long cord!!
