Three weeks early, our newest little boy, Luke Prestley joined our family. He was born at 11:37pm on March 2. (Birthdate-3/2/11. Awesome!) He weighed in at 8 lbs 9 oz and was 20 1/2 inches long. Apparently I can't grow small babies, even when they are born three weeks before their due date.
Luke has quite a bit of hair, and it's blond. Ben and Jack had hair that was a little darker when they were born. He has long blond eyelashes, that are already starting to darken. Here's lots of pictures of our nummy little boy-
The delivery went awesome. (I will write more about it later.) I am still feeling a little blindsided by the fact that he is already here. We were expecting him to be early, but not three weeks early. My prediction about being the mother of three boys came true. Ben was excited to have another brother and although Jack is excited he asked if I could have a girl the next time.
A few people have asked about his name middle name, Prestley. It's not like Elvis Presley (notice no T). Prestley is my great grandpa's middle name and my Grandma's brother's name. A couple of months ago, I asked my Grandma if she had any suggestions for boy names. She told me her nephew has a son named, Luke Prestley, and she liked that. And that was exactly the name we were thinking of when I asked her for suggestions.
