SILAS EDWARD BRAMMER

Born September 5, 2008 at 8:45 am

We left for the hospital at 5:15 am. Jessica was dilated at 3 cm. At 8:00 am and 5 cm they broke her water.

By 8:30 she was fully at 10 cm. After some pretty painful contractions but only 10 min. of hard pushing, he arrived.

Mom and baby Silas stayed at the hospital until the next morning. They had some good alone time with just the two them.

Dad stayed until that evening, but then he had to go and pick up their firstborn, Jeremiah, to visit.

Jeremiah enjoyed meeting his brother for the first time. After a while, he and Dad went home. They would see Mom tomorrow.

The next day Mom and baby came home and began adjusting to life together with Dad and Jeremiah also.

Jeremiah had to adjust to not being the only kid in the house. Still, he did have this on Silas: he could eat spaghetti on his own.

And ice cream.

Silas slept.

Jeremiah posed.

Silas slept some more.

Jeremiah got be a big brother.

And welcomed Silas to the family.
