Oh Thomas, you're almost three whole weeks old now and I'm just getting to the official 'Welcome to the World' post. I think this is a sign of things to come. And those things will most likely be late. 

I'll write a more detailed birth story post later, but the short version is it was perfect. I was impatient for you to come, but you chose the right day and the right time, even if we had other ideas about that. 

You have been a good nurser and sleeper from the start. You like to look at your sister and don't mind it too much when she yells "Hello new baby!" right in your face. 

You're so pudgy and cuddly. And so much more relaxed than your sister ever was. You actually tolerate being held by other people and even enjoy sitting in the swing a bit. Thankfully, you also love being in the sling during the day so I can pay attention to and help Lily every now and then. 

So, in conclusion, Thomas, we're glad you're finally here!
