we had a baby boy!
on friday, january 15 at 3:55 in the morning we welcomed our son
parks james monaco
into the world.
9 pounds 6 oz. 22″ long
our precious gift from above
we are so deeply, madly, in love with our baby boy.
{ready to head home!}
i will be back soon to share more about what life is like for our new little family
{as i am continuing to recover from a long and intense labor + c-section}
but i miss you all.
~
so much love this week
and it means the world to us.
thank you- truly.

Congratulations!!!! Love the bowtie on the onesie!! Rest up Mama and can't wait to read more when you're able to share more. Take it easy as you need to heal and soak up every moment!! I'll be joining you in about 7 weeks or so as we have 48 days to go until our due date! 🙂
