let me introduce our two new Nephews, Wyatt and Tyler

Wyatt William Link born 5-8-09 6lbs 9oz's 20" long

AJ holding his new nephew. KC, AJ's sister had a pretty uneventful delivery with Wyatt, the Dr broke her water at 0800am and one hour later there was little Wyatt. However he did need to go back to the Dr's and have labs drawn for 4 days in a row, something to do with the whole Rh- factor. Yes I know, I work in the medical field, but honestly I know very little when it comes to OB/GYN stuff. Healthy baby boy otherwise, sleeps all the time!! still haven't seen him with his eyes open.


Tyler Dirk Bodily born 5-14-09 9lbs 6oz's and 22" long, and a 15" head!!!

Poor Melissa!!! she was induced at 0800am on the 14th and gave birth to Tyler around 1000pm that night! however she pushed for four hours straight, and when there was no improvement they ended up taking him C-Section. In the photo above he is only 14 hours old, and unfortunately in NICU. His first night he stopped breathing a couple times (sleep apnea) however he started breathing again on his own. And then since he is so huge his blood sugar dropped, so they felt it would be best for Tyler to be monitored in NICU. Thankfully he has been doing great ever since, all test came back normal and everyone is going home today!!! YEAH!!!



Tyler and I the following day, he's not a fan of the flash on a camera, poor little guy he just wants to eat and sleep. Can't wait to get to know the little guy some more!!!

What a huge difference in size between our two nephews, I'm sure hoping I don't have big babies like my sister. However she will be going straight for a C-Section with the rest of the babies she has, so at least she won't have to go through this ordeal again. AJ and I now have a combined total of 14 nieces and nephews!! 2 on AJ's side of the family. There are benefits of being the oldest in a large family, it just takes years to get there :)
