More pics


Abram has to fight off the cats for his turn in the cradle. Tito and Kee Cat beat him to it in the picture above. They do try to sneak in a nap whenever Abram does.

Josh - A few hours after Abram was born. I think being a new dad must be tiring.



A better picture of Abram during his first nap at home.


We didn't want to put pictures up that have him all hooked up in the NICU - but this one show's how he felt about the whole experience.

Abram's First Week Home



Abram has lots of aunties who love him to bits, including Auntie Liz holding him in this picture.
Tito is pictured above after a few days of having Abram home. Tito and Kee Cat aren't getting their normal 20-22 hours of sleep a day and it's starting to wear him down.



Abram taking a snooze in the cradle that Grandpa Terry made for Sara when she was a baby.




Josh and I thought this picture captured a little bit of the chaos of the first few days home. I believe it was taken less than 24 hours after getting home.
Grandpa Terry and his new best buddy.

Abram Comstock Livermore



We were blessed with a baby boy, Abram Comstock Livermore, on Sunday, May 17th at 4:47 AM.  He weighed 8 lbs and 15 oz and is 21 1/2 inches long.  He had some low glucose levels and spent Sunday - Thursday in the NICU but we were able to bring him home today.  We'll be adding more pictures but here are a few from the hospital.

And more showers...still just one baby



At a shower hosted by Josh's department we got to use our crafty side and everyone decorated onesies.


Liz is predicting our baby will join Peter as a future Red Egg Winner








Ever the engineer - Rachel is giving us detailed baby care instructions, 'Feed here...tickle here...empty here.'



Pictures of some of the baby's new presents in the crib.



Baby will have to learn engineering skills from Josh because Sara can't even figure out how to get this picture of the nursery turned right side up.

Baby Showers Bring... a May Baby?




We've been blessed with wonderful friends and family who have showered us with all kinds of wonderful things to welcome the baby.

Baby clothes are so tiny and cute!


Cutting the cake - my favorite part!






This baby is spoiled already...



Josh thinking, 'how many fishing poles am I going to have to give away to make room for all this stuff?'

Updates




We were able to get one last night on the town before baby's arrival.


Easter Sunday we were joined by future Grandma Debbie, Peter and Liz.


Everyone smiling and happy before Liz found the hole Peter had cut in her bag.  He took a page right out of the Comstock Egg Hunt Playbook.



The day wasn't without some friendly competition.


The afternoon ended with the annual Egg Hunt with Peter capturing the grand prize!
