Saturday Pictures

Amy & Eamon with matching IV ports. Eamon and Amy both had to get IV antibiotics after the delivery since Amy spiked a fever. Poor little Eamon had a little board on his hand that Ed called "the club" to help keep the IV in.

Eamon January 13, 2008

Amy and Eamon and Ed are doing well. Mommy and Daddy could use a little more sleep, but besides that are doing fine. Amy and Eamon are still getting iv antibiotics because of the temp Amy had before he was born. One of the pictures I took on Saturday will show thei matching iv ports. Unfortunately, I am having trouble uploading the pictures, will try again later.

If anyone is interested, they are in Room 1056 at UAB Hospital. 205-975-1118

Let try this again

I'm not having much luck with the pictures.

Let's all welcome Eamon Richard Walsh

Eamon Richard Walsh made his debut today, Friday, January 11 at 11:52 a.m. He weighed 9 pounds 7 ounces and is 21 inches long. This is Marie, Amy's mom, posting this for her. I'll let her fill in the details later, suffice it to say is been a long 2 days and Eamon was finally delivered by c section. Mother, Father and child are doing well, but tired. I am going to attempt to add pictures. Let's hope this works.

Baby minus one day

So I went to the Dr this morning and my BP is up and there is protein in my urine, I have pre-eclamsia. So they are inducing tomorrow. They are putting me in the hospital this afternoon (as soon as Ed gets here) to run some tests and insert a catheter (which is supposed to help my cervix become favorable). If the tests come back fine they'll induce in the morning, if not, they'll induce tonight. So we should have our baby boy sometime tomorrow!!

We'll keep yall updated!

38 Weeks and 3 Days (and counting)

Good news - I found the camera!!! Eamon's room isn't done, but I did take some pictures of how it is coming along

Here is a picture of his crib put together, this crib belonged to his cousins Ethan and Cole. Under the crib is his pack-n-play and to the left you can see his bouncy seat. We originally thought we were going to paint the walls yellow, but we decided to go with tan.

Here is a picture of his swing and rocking chair. The rocking chair belonged to my great-grandmother. You can also see the edge of his rug.

Here is a picture of his dresser. It isn't finished yet. We are ordering fire-themed drawer pulls and the door still needs to be put back on the right side. This was mom's baby dresser and Ed sanded it down and painted it to match the rest of the room.

Fire Chief's Hat

Here are some of his clothes hung up in his closet.

This is our new glider and ottomon (and Kenai) It's also a great picture of the new floors.

Here is his changing table.

So, Kenai has decided that she really likes sleeping in his crib. I've been trying to figure out how I'm going to get her from jumping in there. Well, I remember that Trisha used to line the ledge over the stairs with foil so that Willie wouldn't jump up there and decided to try it. So far it is working good. I can see evidence that she has been in the crib, but we have yet to find her sleeping there. I think she probably just jumps in and jumps back out. Thanks for the idea Trish!

Here are some burp cloths that mom has made for Eamon!
