Update

So wanted to let you know that we came home from the hospital on Wed afternoon. Luke's jaundice is doing well and continues to go down. I figure all is smooth sailing from here. It has been wonderful to sleep in my own bed again. It feels so soft--I love it! Lizzy and James are adjusting well to baby Luke. Liz just wants to hold him all the time. James likes his brother too although he is a little jealous. I think it will pass quickly though. All in all, Luke is a great baby and we love to snuggle him!

Luke Anders Robinson

Happy Birthday baby Luke! We are so excited to have you in our family! Luke was born Sunday morning, Feb 13th at 3:43am. Everything went well. He came out at 9lbs 3oz and 21 inches long. I guess my doctor really wasn't kidding a few weeks ago when he said that I would have a ginormous baby! I have been discharged from the hospital and doing well although a little sore but Luke has jaundice and needs to stay over night and hopefully by mornings the level will start to decrease. I will keep you posted. In the meantime, here are some pictures I promised:
Bruised Luke on the scale..poor guy

 Happy Daddy!







 Happy Brother and Sister!
Our new family!

Moooommmmmmm!

So lately James has had a little bit of a rough time going to bed. By rough time, I mean staying in his bed. He has every excuse to get out from I need a drink to I need to get more toys for my bed, etc. Yesterday, I heard some noise and went upstairs to find he had locked himself in the bathroom. Inside he had take the water bottle and sprayed the entire mirror. He then had put the handtowl in the sink and was turning on the water. Oh man.

Well tonight, we had put him back in his bed for the third time and it had been 20 minutes or so and finally all was quiet so we figured he had gone to sleep and then I heard, "Mooooommmmmmm!" I went upstairs to see what he was up to and was in a little bit of shock. I found him completely stripped of pajamas and his diaper halfway off and trying to put it back on. I said, "What are you doing?" He said, "Pajamas dirty". What? I had gotten them out of the drawer yesterday.... Anyways, they were on the top of the dirty clothes basket so I fixed his diaper and put on new pjs. silly kid. Hope this isn't going to be a regular occurrence!

Your baby is gonna be ginormous!

I have been to my ob weekly now for a few weeks and everything is always the same--baby's heartbeat sounds good, size feels good--feels like it has more room to grow in the uterus (I don't really think so as my ribs feel bruised!). Anyways, when I went this past week I heard the familiar baby's heartbeat sounds good, head down and then he was trying to measure the size of the baby and this is what my doctor says to me: "Wow--this ain't gonna be no 7lb baby! How big were your other 2?" I tell him they were 7 and 7 lb 11oz. He then says, "Well--this one is gonna trump them all and be big--be careful there-someone has to push this baby out!" I was needless to say a little shocked and couldn't believe that it had changed that much in a week. Then Dr. M checked my cervix and says, "Oh, the baby's head is higher than I thought--I don't think the baby will be that big." Thanks for the reassurance!
