Reid Kelly Fullmer

Reid Kelly Fullmer
Born April 27th at 2:49pm
Weighing in at 7 lbs 14 ounces and 21 1/2 inches tall

Love the gown...love the gown.
I was thinking about whether or not I should write down the birth story and I decided to leave that to my journal. All I will say is that the epidural didn't quite work and I felt it all (or so I think) It happened fast though so for that I am grateful. I give props to you natural women!! I don't want to scare anyone that hasn't given birth yet because it really is the most special, exhilarating, spiritual, incredible experience ever and I wouldn't trade it for the world.


Caleb was the best coach ever, if I could take away the pain and oxygen mask I would have been laughing my head off at him. He was so completely into it and intrigued beyond belief. We didn't take a birthing class but he would have passed it with an A+. He thought he wouldn't be able to handle it but he took it like a champ. I was so glad to have him there by my side and in my face counting...very very slowly :) or so it seemed. Nothing could have prepared me for that experience and I will never forget it. I have already forgotten what the pain was like but I think that is so I will do it again :) and you better believe I will.


First Bath!

The Happy Family!



Our special feast at the hospital.
I really enjoyed our stay at the hospital and was actually sad to leave...is that weird? You are always safe and taken care of. They have everything you need, and will do anything to make you feel better. Meds, jetted tubs, the yummy ice, maxi pads, dermoplast :) and the food was not bad at all. And there is a button to adjust your bed! Brilliant...since I don't have any ab muscles to sit up by myself.










Have you ever seen such long toes?

If you couldn't tell we are obsessed with him. He has stolen our hearts and has our complete attention 24/7. I still can't believe that he is here and caleb and I are parents. Kind of a scary thought!
He is sleeping and eating like a champ and we couldn't be happier to have our little man here!

    Kelsi! Oh my goodness...ok well first I am so sorry the epdiural didn't work because I'm pretty sure I could never have done what you did. Your baby is beautiful and it was so fun to see him with so many of your family. I hope everything is going great - I know you are an amazing mother! Love you :)

    You did a great job Kels! What a champ! Gotta love the Pinnacle gear - they have it all don't they! We are going to miss you and your family while you are away. I want to hold Reid some more. Just keep an eye out because I might have to steal him while we are at the cabin! Love you Kels! Great job!
