I am now a proud papa! My daughter Grace Ann Belonger was born on Tuesday night at 6:09pm, she weighted 7 pounds, 9 ounces, and was 21 inches long. 10 fingers, 10 toes, and the most adorable thing ever. We just got home a few hours ago and Mom and baby are doing fantastic. It was really the most incredible experience ever and I am so excited :)

Seems like February was a busy month..

my baby just turned 1 on nov 1st...when we had our reservation appointment at the hospital,the nurse actually said to us "I was going to say it was a Valentine's day baby, but you are a couple weeks early"...little did she know we were having a scheduled induction, and the baby wasnt really due for another 2 weeks. :D

congrats to all the new dads!!!!

Grats!

The next time you will be this excited is the first night they sleep through the night. Our 9 week old now sleeps 7-8 hours at night.. It is almost better than sex.

Nearly five years later...and we finally have #2!! Noelle Dorthey was born today at 3PM. It's amazing how new everything feels even after having gone through it once before...and it is going to be even more amazing to see how Grace is with her (she is already over-the-moon about being a big sister). Here is a great picture of my two daughters (that is so weird to say!)

Mom and baby are doing well and resting now...this was pretty perfect timing too, to forget about that debacle on Monday night... haha :)

Haha - at this point, I know my wife would like another (and I would love a little boy!) but we are very content with 2. Two was my ideal number and she always wanted 3 or 4, but with all the issues we had even getting pregnant with Noelle, we aren't going to rush anything with 3. That said - my wife keeps saying that we will probably get pregnant right away with #3, lol. We'll see :)

Apparently the answer to this question was "about another 5 years"!

Late last year, shortly after my youngest turned 4, my wife and I had pretty much decided that we were very content with our two girls and would take steps to permanently put an end to any new babies by the end of the year. Little did we know that she was already pregnant with #3 at the time... And wouldn't you know it, but we got our boy!

https://photos-2.dropbox.com/t/2/AACvQVzIW75Stf1tw_FiiB4V0M2VBxYD7TDc4FoQFw8ieA/12/2626963/jpeg/1024x768/3/1496602800/0/2/IMG_20170603_162511.jpg/EPn-3D0Y1-ECIAcoBw/W_PxyUWJn3gxzXZAMnyWlm2coHWfxJPU3L9YwbaExRg?size=1024x768&size_mode=3

His name is Thomas Andrew and he greeted us on June 2 at 2:39pm - he weighed in at a whopping 10# 12oz (three pounds bigger than both his sisters!) and 22 inches. Labor was pretty easy considering his size and both Mom and baby are doing amazing. His two big sisters are over-the-moon excited to meet him and we are definitely going to have two awesome helpers.

This will be the first grand baby in my family since my Dad passed last year, so it is a bit bittersweet. We pretty much decided from the moment we found out he was a boy that we would name him after my Dad though - we felt that was the best way to honor him :)

And this will most definitely be the last new post from me announcing a new baby :-D
