More Pictures!

We have been so busy here at the Taflinger house! Sorry for taking so long to get an update! Landen is such a growing baby. Since we left the hospital he has already gained a pound and grown almost 2 inches! He is going to be a tall little guy! As of this past Wednesday he was 7 pounds 6 oz and 21 3/4 inches long. Although Chad and I are super tired, we have loved every minute of Landen. I have included some pictures. The first one is of him wrapped up in Nana's blanket.






He looks so sad in this picture.

First trip to Church! Look how big he looks already. He is pondering what church will be like! :)

First real bath! He wasn't too happy! But look how cute he looks! :)

We love you Landen!

He makes the funniest faces sometimes and puts himeself in the weirdest positions.

Happy Fathers Day!

As you can see things are great! For those of you who have not yet met Landen, we can't wait. He has brought so much joy already. Until later ~ Hugs and Kisses! :)

Meet Landen Mitchell Taflinger!

Landen Mitchell Taflinger was welcomed into the world at 12:03pm on Wednesday, June 4th.

6 pounds 11 oz
19 and 1/4 inches long

We went to the hospital on Tuesday to get prepared for the induction that started in the middle of the night Tuesday/Wednesday. I had hard contractions for about 4 hours, epidural, then a surprising hour and 45 minutes later he was born. Doctor checked me at 10:15am and said he wouldn't be born till around 5 later that night, therefore I wanted the meds!!! :) At that point I was only at 4 cm dilated. Within an hour and 10 minutes I felt extreme pressure and the contracts came back and were more intense. The nurses checked, I was fully dilated and his head was already showing. The doctor rushed down to my room and within a few pushes he made his arrival!!

Here are some pictures right after he was born!





The next day! He is such a little peanut! So little! He has dark blue eyes and light brown/blonde hair! I think both eyes and hair will lighten with time!



SO CUTE!



I just love the way he puts his hands right by his mouth. My great-grandmother did this all the time! Makes me think of her! :)



First car ride! He did such a great job!



Just love him!



More pictures to come! I am definitely camera happy! He is such a joy! I have caught myself in the middle of the night crying just holding him. Although I'm tired, grumpy, hungry, and sore I could hold him for hours and hours! I can't wait for everyone to meet him! :)

Love,
Chad, Angela, Landen :) :)
