55 days ago I gave birth to a healthy, beautiful baby boy! My life is forever changed-for the better and he brings me so much indescribable joy. Even on a day like today when I feel as if I've been hit by a semi, I can smile because he is in my life. God has blessed us! Kaden Joel Legg was born November 16, 2010 at 8:25pm and weighed 7.0 lbs and 19 3/4'' long. I was actually surprised he wasn't smaller considering the many comments throughout my pregnancy about my tiny belly. I thought it was plenty big enough, thank you very much :). My mom arrived at the hospital just 3 hours after he was born and stayed with us for 3 weeks. It was amazing to have her there while I adjusted to mommyhood and to experience the first 3 weeks of Kaden's life. She really bonded to him in that time and can't wait to come back in February. And April. I think she will soon get tired of the many trips and just decide to stay - we can only hope! Here are a few of Kaden's first pictures in the hospital.

My little munchkin |
The next big event we had was moving into our very own condo. We love it here and can really see ourselves staying for a good long time, which is the point, I suppose. It is a bit smaller than our last place so we have had to downsize a little bit, but we don't mind because we had a lot of things we didn't need. I am excited for the memories we will make here with our munchkin and to watch him grow. I think baby's 2nd Christmas may have a few more memories than his first though, as he slept through present opening and 2 dinners this year. Now maybe I should take down that tree...
