So I texted Mom and Steph checking on him. Steph responds with this picture and the message "We are having fun". Yes, by the looks of it, I think he's doing just fine without me!

Silly
Although Ryker came visit me a few times while I was in the hospital, I was still missing him so much. He goes to school from 9am to 4:30, Mamma picks him up and he plays at her house for a while until Mom gets him and he's been sleeping there. Stephanie has been in town so she's been entertaining him in the evenings, playing with his trains, riding his new bike and doing puzzles they tell me.

Visitors
I loved all of our visitors! It's a shame we don't have pictures of everyone. But thank you to everyone who took time to come by and meet Hudson. We also appreciated all the flowers and gifts - they really brightened my room, especially since I opted to stay there for 4 nights.
Much love...
Ryker meets Hudson
This was special. Mom and Mamma brought Ryker to the hospital where me, Justin and Hudson were anxiously waiting for them. It would be Ryker's first time to meet his baby brother Hudson.
Ryker was all smiles when he walked into the hospital room. Looking handsome in his long sleeve striped polo. I think he was just as excited as we were. He quickly hugged me and (to my surprise) was not at all bothered by me being in the hospital bed. I would think most 2 year olds would be apprehensive about seeing mom in that unfamiliar room, but he didn't seem to even notice. He was more focused on baby brother than he was on me. He never stopped smiling as we asked him questions like "Who is that Ryker?" pointing at Hudson to which he responded "Baby Hudson". He kissed him on his foot and told us "He's going to get me. He's going to get you too Mamma". I understood this as he's going to play with us. It was so sweet. Priceless.
Ryker is going to be such a great big brother. I can't wait to watch these two grow up together! We promise to cherish every waking moment.
We were so captured by Ryker's reaction that we couldn't work the camera fast enough. So although we don't have as many pictures as I'd like (or video for that matter), it will forever be embedded in my heart and I will never ever forget a second of this special moment.

Seeing Hudson for the first time
He was jumping up and down on the couch holding on to Hudson's bed. Made Mamma just a tad nervous! I think Hudson will have to get used to this.
My big boy!

Hudson Robert Reeves
Thursday, December 29 is finally here! This was our Christmas morning. It was time to meet our new son! A scheduled c-section is the way to go. My surgery was scheduled for noon. Justin and I arrived at the hospital at 10am and went straight to Women's Center where they admitted me to the room I would call home for 4 nights and they began to prep me for surgery. Mom arrived at 11am and the crew - Jill, John, Stephanie, Ches, Dad, Mamma, Aunt Shirley, and Anne - they arrived shortly after. (Ryker had school today) Like clockwork the nurse arrived at 11:45 with the annoucement that the doctor was here.
Justin and Mom joined me in the operation room where we first set our eyes on Hudson Robert. Our healthy baby boy was finally here!
Born December 29, 2011 at 12:23pm weighing 7lbs 11oz and 19in long; dark hair, dark blue eyes and long fingers - He is perfect! We are overwhelmed with joy. I can barely believe that I get to be the mom of 2 boys. God is good!
