Our baby is finally here! My water broke at 7:30pm on Sunday night, so we went to the hospital to get things checked out. After a long night of labor, Preston Kyle Eichmeier arrived 2 1/2 weeks early at 12:50pm on Monday, September 29 2008. He weighed 7 lb, 14 oz and was 20 inches long. He is doing great and we are so happy our baby boy is with us now!
Here is Preston chillin before his 1st bath
Bath time!
He finally opened his eyes!
Getting his foot prints
Scott's 1st time holding Preston
Holding Preston after he was all cleaned up and breathing normally
7 lbs, 14 oz- just think how big he would have been if he went full term!
Scott cutting the cord
Preston was very purple and having a tough time breathing right when he came out so I didn't get to hold him very long. Here are the ICU nurses helping him breathe and getting all that mucus out of his lungs. Mom was pretty nervous at this point because she didn't know what was going on!
I was not this smiley all night- this was before the pain!

What a cutie-pie!!!! Glad things are all okay with mom and baby!! We'll wait til next week when you're home and a little settled and we'll be over to meet him. I can't wait!!! :)
Congrats!!!!
So glad to see him (not as glad as you are I'll bet!), he is such a precious baby! I love the pic of his glossy eyes and crazy face when he is being held like he is sitting! How adorable! Hopefully we can make a trip to Des Moines sometime over the next month or so to see the little man~
