Aidan's Birth Day

I've been reprimanded for not updating my blog so here you go! :)

Aidan John Coons was born just after 8am on June 21st, 2011. Aidan is a name that we've both loved for a while and had picked out for a few years (unfortunately it is now the most popular boys name) and his middle name, John, is for my Dad and Chad's Grandpa Coons.
My doctor had told me that she figured he would be about 7.5-8lbs but he surprised everyone when he came out at 9lbs, 13oz. He was 21.5 inches long (same as Tristan). He was perfect, looked just like a little doll (still is). Because of his size the nurses started calling him Bruiser which just fit. The scheduled c-section went off without any problems and recovery was soooo much better than with Tristan. Aidan was so much bigger than his big brother though that they had to cut more than my original incision line (about an inch) and now it's off center. Nothing wrong with it, it just bugs me ;)

Here he comes! That's my doc on the right and she is awesome!
That's right, 9lbs, 13oz! My little tank.

Tristan LOVES his little brother. He's very protective of him and wants to love him all the time. It's very sweet to watch.
Perfect little doll
