Born Wednesday August 19th, 2009 6:05pm
8 lbs 1 oz. 20 1/2 inches long
Perfect in every way!
The delivery went very well and long story short...I had every intention of trying this birth "natural" and I made it as far as I could but it just wasn't meant to be...Tom said it best when he said it's not how you get the baby here...it's that the baby gets here...and that's the truth. I'm glad I was calm and peaceful when this baby came into the world and not wanting to freak out! Little Cohen came quite nicely after 9 minutes of pushing which was a record for me:) I'm so thankful for the medical staff I had, that I delivered at Salt Lake Regional and not LDS, and for the great support of our families! Tom had nothing to prove in the Father category, but once again he has...he is so loving and aware of his children's needs and he has so much love to give this new little one. Adelyn and Elsie have been such good little helpers and have been so curious whenever a diaper gets changed or the baby gets fed, they are both so proud of their brother! Cohen is already such a blessed little boy and he has already blessed our lives and changed us for the better!
3 days old...looks happy as a clam!

Elsie had fallen asleep and so Tom laid her in the baby's crib...she looked like a giant!
Tom brought the girls back late the next day to watch a movie in the room with me...the nurse even brought us ice cream

An 8 pounder!...nobody thought I could do it:)
My Mom came in just after I received my epidural and I was in a much calmer state...what was I thinking trying to go natural?

Congrats I'm so happy for you guys! He is adorable! enjoy the new little addition to your family. By the way you seriously look way to good for just having a baby and I really mean that. Share with me how it goes with three.
Conrgratulations!!! I am so happy he finally decided to come, and I CAN'T BELIEVE there was 8 whole pounds of baby in your tiny belly!
Good to know about going natural - kudos for trying it anyway (that is probably more than I will ever dare to do).
You guys look like the cutest little family, and I love both girl's sweet little faces when they are holding their new brother :). I'll give you a call in a few days when you have had more of a chance to recover!
Thanks for sharing all of the great pictures of the people I love soooo much!! I can hardly wait to meet him and to hold him. He is beautiful in every way. Isn't is funny how you can hardly believe that you used to live without him?
Oh Hillary! You are a beautiful mother... and Cohen is absolutely perfect in every way! I wish I was closer so I could see him. Congratulations to you all! All the best...

I love all the pictures! Congratulations Tom and Hill. I agree with your friend that you look way too good for just having that baby. He is so cute, and Tom I love the reading material. I am sure that he wont have much of a choice but to like skiing!! Good luck these next few weeks. Love you!

Congrats on your sweet baby boy. There is nothing like a newborn baby. I love having a boy and can't imagine my life with out him. I noticed his name is jewish. Do you have jewish heritage? Hope you are doing ok. Three was a blast for us, four has been a little crazy but we love it. Hang in there. Oh and I can't believe how big he was. All my mine were big like that. Oaks was 9 pounds. Have a great one. love, squires family
Congratulations!! Hope we can see your new little baby boy this weekend. Can't wait to see him in person.
CONGRATULATIONS! He is perfect! You look too cute to be in the hospital.
