Meet my son


Odin Fuller was born on Friday, August 22nd at 9:10a.m. He was 7 pounds, 3.8 ounces and 19 inches long. Words can't describe how much we love this little guy! He came out with his hand raised next to his head (a child of two teachers, asking politely to be chosen) and his eyes WIDE open! The 9 hour drug-free all natural labor and delivery were everything we had hoped for and there was no way I could have done it without the Husband. He was the best labor coach-our midwife and nurse told him he could have a career as a midwife or a doula!

Rex and Guu are adjusting well to the new little guy and Rex can't wait till Odin's old enough to play with him in the backyard. We've already enjoyed many visitors the last couple of days, lots of sweet friends and family offering dinner and lots of baby holding time. Odin's looking forward to meeting his Grandma Gail and his Grandpa Ron this weekend! They will be traveling from California to meet their grandson for the first time.

He's a happy baby, eating well and sleeping so often we have to wake him up for meals! Of course, he cries too but usually it's just when he's telling us he needs a clean diaper. Smart kiddo. He's living up to his name-full of wisdom. You can tell from his soulful eyes.
