Well, I haven’t done a good job of narrowing down the pictures, but here they are…
I LOVE this picture of Damian! I’m pretty sure this was right after we discovered that we had had a boy.
Damian getting ready to cut the cord
The big weigh-in. The nurses were so anxious to find out how much this big baby weighed!
Such a tiny little finger to have us wrapped around already
It was such an incredible experience to have Jamie with us during the delivery. She got to be with the baby right away while Damian and I were getting cleaned up after being in the tub.
Keanan’s first visitor (same as Ellie’s and Charlie’s) – Auntie Hillary -- who promptly discovered that Keanan has not one, but two dimples
Ellie and Charlie both started giggling uncontrollably as soon as they saw the baby
Our new family of five (yikes – that still sounds so overwhelming! I wonder when I’ll get used to it?!)
The next day, Auntie Jamie and Uncle Eric brought Ellie and Alex up to the hospital to see the baby (Hillary stayed with Charlie and Aubrey) and Ellie was super excited to hold Keanan. The day before, she sobbed (and sobbed!) when it was time to leave and she learned that she couldn’t take Keanan with her – such a sweet big sister!
Our chubby little guy on the day he came home from the hospital (Ellie picked his outfit)
Jamie and family left the day we got home from the hospital and Gaga arrived the next night. Thank goodness for the help of family!!
Keanan’s favorite place to sleep – the vibrating chair. After sleeping for no more than 15 minutes in his bassinet the first night, he has slept in his chair every night. Thank goodness Costco carries batteries!
I know I’m a little biased, but isn’t he handsome?!

Yes, he's VERY handsome, so sweet!! I can't wait to meet him--I didn't have a clue how long to wait to visit--I figured our MOMS group has become so HUGE, if we all came to see you right after, you'd be completely bombarded!!!! But I also don't want to be the only friend left who hasn't met the sweet little guy so all of that rambling to say. . .just let me know when you can stand yet another visitor to meet your newest sweet addition to your family :)
He is just PERFECT!!! You are a serious ROCK STAR and I am so thankful that I was in town. We love the Hirst 5. And, these pictures are just so precious. Can't wait to see Keanan's adorable dimples again:)
Sweet pics! LOVE that you had a water birth. Hope you're getting some rest.
Adrienne and Damian, It is an absolute joy to watch Ellie and Charlie accept Keanen as one of their own. It is a huge testament to your gentle and loving car. Charlie and Ellie have been such a great duo and I know Keanan is going to make it a perfect trio. To see your relaxed and, oh so incredibly competent parenting makes me so proud of you both.
