James is here!

Stellagrams- the James Editions 

He is here! And right on time- he's taking after his dad already. James Robert Wallace was born at 2:52 pm on January 7th (his due date), weighing 8lbs 10oz and 20.25in long. We are so happy that he can honor both sides of the family and is named after his late maternal grandpa James Robert Cunningham and his paternal Great Grandfather James Robert Gourley. 

So far he is a snuggly, cuddley love. 

He came very quickly (especially compared to Stella). I woke up in labor around 4 am and after Stella went off to my mom's we headed to the hospital in rush hour traffic. It was a little like a scene out of a movie at some points- I'm having contractions and Brian is trying to avoid traffic by taking some creative back roads which unfortunately (for me in the throes of a contraction) contained some cobblestone streets. When we got therewe found that the Dr. for the day was my college soccer teammate, Sarah Salemy (née Camp). A few hours later and with only a few pushes James was here. 

So sleepy!

 

He might have dimples!

Brian and I both think he looks like Stella when she was born. Brian has some good photos of the two of them together that I will get posted in a day or two!

With Nanna Susanna. 

Much love,
