He is here!!!

Welcome to our family Hyrum Blake Russell!!
I am sorry but I will not be posting his birth story quite yet! It is way too long and I need time to write it down! I started the inducing process at 8pm Wednesday the 23rd and we thought he would be there the following morning because things were progressing so well.... Hyrum had other plans and decided to make it a little harder on the both of us! His name was not even a name we had thought of or put on our list but came to Kim when she held him for the first time after he was cleaned off! Story to come soon!

Born Thursday October 24th, 2013 (His exact due date)
Time: 4:01pm
Weight: 8 Pounds 1 Ounce
Length: 21 and a quarter inches
His hair is brown but still has that hint of silver like Olivia's had when she was born!


I absolutely love that little face! So grumpy!

Getting his foot print done

Daddy loves his little boy! Yes there were some tears shed from everyone

Within the first couple hours he had already found his fingers and was sucking on them

First Bath


Rock On Kid! (getting his hearing test done)

Dad, Olivia (21 months) and Hyrum (1 hour)

Our little Frankenstein Baby

After 2 long days of no sleep... I was exhausted

He already started to take a pacifier by day 3 after being born
Hyrum is perfect in every way and is such a good baby! We are still getting a hang on the whole nursing to fill his belly instead of snacking every 15 minutes but he will figure it out soon! He already only wakes up 2 times every night and is such a good sleeper during the day! It is 7:30pm and both the kids are down for bed already so I am going to follow the trend! We are so lucky to be blessed with these amazing kids and we love them so much!
