Introducing SYLER !!!!!!!

He's here! Last Monday, the 12th of April, Brian and I went to the hospital to induce. The nurse started me on pitocin and a few hours later the doctor broke my water. Four hours later I gave two pushes and Syler was born. I have to say it was a little too easy- Being started into labor and then having an epidural and then hardly having to push makes it seem like I cheated! But it doesn't matter how much discomfort I did or didn't go through. What matters is that he is healthy and beautiful! Syler Glen was 7lbs 7oz and 20 1/2 inches long. When I was able to hold him then he just looked into my eyes and then at his dad and then at the doctor, like everything was good in the world. He hardly cried (of coarse now that his lungs are clear he has demonstrated that he does have a voice).

Today, Sunday, we blessed him at my parents house. We needed to do it while Brian was still here. Brian's parents were able to come from Idaho Falls and his brother and his family from Nampa also came. My sister, Elisha, and her husband came from Boise. My brother and his family also came as did my grandparents. Brian gave Syler an awesome blessing, then we had dinner and cake. It was a really nice day. I love having family together to celebrate a new addition! My belly was HUGE!

Ashton was excited to hold the baby.
He said "he's the most beautiful baby I ever saw."

Terron, on the other hand, was not interested in the baby what so ever
and wouldn't even acknowledge him the first day.
The second day he actually touched his hair.
By the third day he finally decided it would be okay to hold him.

The two boys now make sure that they know where the baby is at all times and always want to give him his pacifier, and hold him several times a day.

I'll put some additional pictures on here soon that show Syler a little closer so you can all see how adorable he is :)
