Jekyll and Hyde






















The top photo is of Samuel an 1 hr after he was born and the bottom is 6 mins after.


I just went through my camera and all the shots that I have of him are not really photos that you would display when you are wanting to show everyone you bundle of joy. These are the best two I have on the camera I brought back from the hospital. In the top pic he has some marks on his head that looked sore, they had to used forceps to get him out, however these disappeared after a day.

He had a bath tonight so he looks all nice and clean so I will get some posed pics tomorrow.

Cass and Samuel are doing great, he intially had some breathing issues and was placed in the special care nursery from about 4 hrs after he was born till 2 pm today. He is out now and is spending his first night with his mum. He has made awesome progress and is feeding well, there is a very good chance that mother and baby will be home on Monday.

Thanks alot for all of the comments, they are great and very much appreciated. Some more pics hopefully tomorrow. I just love these two, from full on raw emotion to calm mellowed little boy.

Happy Mothers Day Cass!

I hope little Sam bought you some wonderful smiles and tight grips with his hands to melt your heart!

Take care all three of you and see you out on the road soon.
