Our Baby Boy!

Jump to Comments

Well, Logan Eldon Senske was born on Thursday, July 10th at 2:16 PM. He was 7.2 lbs and 19.6 inches long. He is absolutely amazing! When the doctor flipped him over she said, “well dad, what do you have?” and Brian said, “Is that a boy?” He was so surprised because he truly thought we were having a girl. It was so much fun to watch! We loved not knowing until that moment. Absolutely amazing! We had 2 names picked out for boys and I asked Brian when he saw him what he looked most like – he said Logan and that was that! Eldon is Brian’s Grandpa’s name who passed away years ago but meant the world to Brian. He always knew if he had a son he would want to honor his Grandpa Eldon in that way.

It has been an amazing few days. We find ourselves staring at Logan constantly, wondering how in the world we created something so beautiful. I’m sure every parent experiences such a range of emotions. We truly can’t believe he’s here and healthy. It has been a bit of an adjustment figuring out sleeping patterns, when to feed him, who is going to sleep during what parts of the day…but we are getting the hang of it. Any lost sleep is fine the second we look at him. He is worth all of it.

I finally got some pictures uploaded. They range from the first day in the hospital to just yesterday when we took some with a football (of course we had to!). Today is our second anniversary – we are celebrating with pizza and salad in our pajamas. Sounds perfect to us! We did get out our wedding video/slideshow and relived the day over again. It was fun to look at pictures knowing that 2 years later we would be parents. We look at things so differently now – seems to happen in a matter of seconds. Thanks for listening – and for your prayers. We are so glad to have him here.
