Vaughn Madsen Fosburg

He is here!  He is here!  He is here!

I am so excited to announce to the whole world the birth of my second son, Vaughn, or V for short.

He was born exactly 11 days after Evie's birthday on Sunday night, the 20th of May 2012.

That evening was the same as all the rest, though I was a bit uncomfortable.  But, hey, I was pregnant, when wasn't I uncomfortable?  Anyway, I apparently had real contractions beginning by 6pm, they stopped at 8 until 9pm, and by 10pm we were in the hospital.  By 10:30pm I was told I couldn't have my epidural.  I was not happy, but it was a little late to be complaining because by 10:57pm my little boy was finally here!

he is such a cutie - actually that applies to both my boys!

 ohhhh, how she loves "our" baby - see the little giggle?

 she's still getting used to the idea that she's NOT the baby anymore

At 7lbs. 11oz. and 20 1/2 in long, with lots of soft black hair, and beautiful blue eyes.  He is so sweet and such a good baby.  He is already sleeping up to 5hrs at a time and gained a pound and an inch or so.  So he is growing well.

so handsome - love the dark hair - hope it stays!

The kids have enjoyed him as an addition to our family.  Evie loves everything baby anyway.  Joseph LOVES having a brother and I have to admit, I like having another boy in the house too.  Lizzy is so cute and really owning the big sister title this time around.  Ally is the one that I was a bit worried about since she's been the baby for the last year.  She had a hard time at the beginning trying to understand what she could touch and where she could sit.  She has done an amazing job!  She touches V with such tenderness and in such a sweet way that I think she has accepted our littlest one.

So world, welcome the last of the kids to our family!  We love you Vaughn!
