Cameron has arrived!

Here are the pics everyone has been waiting for...sorry for the delay but I've been through a lot the last 6 days!! I'm still recovering from the surgery and all the fun stuff that comes after having a baby. I thought I would be getting back to normal, but apparently our bodies decide to continue to go through more changes after giving birth. Anyway, we got home late Sunday afternoon and have been trying to get used to the idea that we are parents of this cute little guy! I will type more about each picture in a few days, but just wanted to get them on the blog before we got anymore "threatening" emails :)

Today is the day for Cameron to come out and play...the last time my belly will have Cameron in it!

We got to the hospital and Jeremy realized he forgot the camera and camcorder at HOME!! Of all things to forget...anyways my parents showed up about 15 minutes after we got there with their camera. My dad offered to go get ours from our house, but Jeremy called his boss who came to the hospital to get our garage door opener and directions to our house. I got comfy in bed and waited for the nurse to prep me, the wait and anticipation killed me...I wanted to 'get it over with!!'

Jer with my parents...Jer was filling out all the fun paperwork.


Meg "walking the green mile"...


Talk about overwhelming, the surgery room was a little scary looking!


Dr. Later and his crew


WAHHH WAAAAH! Cameron's first words. Jer got to watch as they did the
c-section. He took lots of "gory" pictures that might be a little too graphic to put on a blog for the "weak stomache people". If you are really interested in seeing them, I can email them to you. They are quite fascinating!

I was so happy to be done with the procedure and just get to hold him...what a miracle babies are!
We gave out these little Cummings chocolate booties and stars to people who came to visit at the hospital.


The hopsital has a special dinner one night for the mom and dad. It was really cute how they set the table up and gave us sparking cider...real silverware and we got to choose what we watned to eat. Jer picked steak and I picked chicken cordon bleu....it was still hospital food, but was fun. It was Jer's birthday that Friday night so we decided to pretend we went to a nice restaurant for dinner to celebrate his 33rd birthday.

They gave me a really nice, comfy robe to wear.


My mom and dad were at the hospital every day to help and visit. Jer & my dad went and got Cafe Rio one day and I escaped from the hospital to eat outside on the picnic table.


Us getting ready to leave the hospital. We dressed him in the outfit Jeremy wore when he came home from the hospital. His mom saved it all this time and gave it to us. It was very special.


His first time in his car seat...what a cutie!!


Jer & my dad went and got these balloons to welcome me home. It was a fun surprise they had all set up for me. Jer even took some time to clean and tidy up the house.





Cameron spends a lot of time with his eyes open...he is only 5 days old here.


Tica has done pretty well getting used to the new addition to the family. She just likes to smell him and isn't sure about all the funny sounds he makes.
