The arrival of Baby Jensen #2

We would like to welcome Baby Jensen #2 into our family, William Barrett Jensen.  He was born on August 8th at 5:30pm weighing 8lbs 10oz and was 20" long...what a big boy!  We ended up having him via cesarean because of the fear of him being to big and having shoulder distortion.  Then there was the problem with my blood pressure getting to high and having been admitted into labor and delivery 2 times and measuring 3+ weeks ahead, the doctor went ahead and gave us the okay to have him at 38.5 wks.  Which to be honest, I was totally okay with that. :D

I do have to say that having a c-section isn't as bad as I originally thought.  The recovery has  been pretty amazing, a lot better than having Clayton.  I would like to say that after almost 2 weeks I am moving around great and able to almost everything on my own again, plus I love the fact that I can go potty without dealing with all the pain and doing all the extra steps.  Chris can agree with you, that this delivery has been a lot better.  Plus we were shocked at how big our little man was, it was a good thing we did do it that way, because he wouldn't have fit and I bet there would have been a lot of complication and it would have just ended up a c-section anyways.  Huge perk was this time I didn't have to labor for 19 hours :D.  We got checked into the hospital at 3pm and then got prepped for surgery and was in the operation room at 5pm.  He was born 30 minutes later and we were back in our room by 6pm...nice!

Clayton loves being a big brother, he is constantly wanting to hold William, kiss him, and wanting him to play with him.  I feel bad telling him to leave him alone all the time and to stop smothering him, but at least we all know that Clayton is going to be such a good big brother and helper.

Having little William home has been an adjustment to use all, mainly in the sleeping area.  Poor Chris and I have been trying to swap out who stays up with him at night, since his schedule is so backwards.  But I try to do most of the night stuff myself since Chris has started back up with work this week.  Needless to say, we are both a little sleep deprived at the moment, but it'll get better, hopefully soon.

We just can't wait to see what the future may hold for our little family.
