2 weeks later. . . . and finally announcing our New Baby Boy!

I can't believe it has taken me this long to post pics on here of our new baby boy!

Fischer Maurice Hartman arrived 2 weeks ago, on the 7th, at 1:30 p.m. He weighed in at 7 lbs. 10 oz. and was 20 in. long.

Labor and delivery went well. We went in bright and early that morning at 6am to be induced. My parents arrived the night before from their long car ride from Utah, stopping in Oklahoma to drop my Grandma off at my aunts for a visit while they came here. It worked out perfectly having them here to take care of the other boys while we were away at the hospital. Many thanks to them for doing that for us!

My parents stayed for a week and then Wayne's parents and little brother were able to come for a couple of days for a visit as well.

The boys love their new little brother and give him lots of kisses. Kenner asks to hold him often and Myer is always sure to ask and find out where the baby is and what he is doing. They have been really good with him. He's been a great baby so far. Very calm and content and sleeps ALOT! Sometimes I still can't believe we have three kids now! Reality is still sinking in but we've been doing well.

So, I have probably what will turn out to be a ton of pictures to post. I'll try to contain myself. This is going to have to be several posts I can see after going through my pictures. So, we'll start with the hospital stay and visitors we had there.


Say goodbye to the belly, or at least most of it! I just had to have Wayne take one last picture.
And he's here. When they broke my water it was green. So, when he was born before I could hold him they had to suction him out good and let the NICU team look at him. But after all checked out fine he was in my arms!







Proud Daddy!

Later that night Wayne went and picked up my parents and the kids to come meet the new baby. They were a bit hesitant and quiet walking in. Even Kenner which surprised me. It was cute to watch them come in and how they were acting.

But soon Kenner warmed up to the idea of holding his new brother.

Myer was happy to look but not get to close and not hold him.

Grandma I'm sure was happy to get him in her arms!



Now a family of five! Myer wasn't wanting to be close to the baby and hold still for the pic.

Wayne and I got to enjoy a nice quiet day at the hospital on Friday together with the baby.






Dressed and ready to go. Dad did the honors of getting you dressed while I got ready to leave.





Waiting to get wheeled out to the car.

Well, that will have to do for now! He he, that was alot already huh? And I'm not even done yet. We'll see when I get around to doing the rest.

All I have to say is it is about time! I had to ask your mom his name! I am glad everything went well. Any ideas on why your water was green? Fischer is super cute. He looks like his brothers.
