Owen Stewart Frost

On Thursday, July 5th Owen Stewart Frost joined our little family (that probably isn't considered a little  family anymore).  Like his three big siblings; Owen entered this world via cesarian section.  We arrived at the hospital at 9 a.m. I was hooked up to an IV and fetal monitors and then we waited.. and waited, and waited.  
 This is what I felt like after waiting for five hours;


We were thrilled when they finally came and told us that they were ready to take me into surgery.


Fourty-five minutes later,  I heard Owen's sweet little cry.


Owen Stewart was born at 2:45 p.m.  He weighed 8 lbs 14 oz. (our biggest baby) and was 20 inches long. 


He was absolutely perfect.


Mommy seeing Owen for the first time.

My oldest and my newest loves :)


Little baby feet (actually super long baby feet, check out those big toes!)


Getting warmed up after his first bath.



Grandma Stewart with all the kiddos (isn't my mom beautiful?)

My three boys.

One proud big sister.


Three handsome boys.
Owen looks a lot like both of his big brothers.


Colby and Owen.  Now those are two handsome guys!


The proud daddy.


Me and all my kids.


We are so grateful for this new little baby and the sweet spirit that he has already brought into our home.

I LOVE this post. I think he looks like both boys too :) I love his name. And these are great photos, especially the one of all your kids with your mom and your first family of 6 photo.

And you are so on the ball with this post...my baby is 4mo and I still haven't gotten to the post.

I still can't believe what a chubs he is! Can you imagine if you had gone all the way to your due date??? He would have been like 10 pounds at least! Shauni, you are a champion! He is so sweet and so cute and I love his round face and head. I think he looks a lot like Carter did. Congratulations to you, I hope everything is going great and I can't wait to hear more about him.

P.S. I took Nora in to her 2 week check on monday. She weighed 8 lbs 1 oz.... still not as big as Owen on the day he was born. hahhaha

Congratulations, Shauni! He is such a beautiful little boy, and I love his name! How exciting to have a newborn in the house! Beckett is six months now, and I can't believe he was ever that little.
