Welcome Baby Quentin!

We are happy to announce that Quentin James Lucas was born on July 21, 2011! He was 7 pounds 3 ounces and 20 inches long! When Mckenna met Quentin for the first time she sang "Rock-a-bye, Baby" to him and gave him countless kisses. She wanted to hold and carry him like she does with her dolls! Kelly got a quick video of Mckenna rocking Quentin and put it up on Facebook but we didn't get it on our video camera. (BOO, that is what happens when Momma is stuck in a bed!)

We brought Quentin home on Saturday morning and started adjusting right away! John and Charlene planned a nice welcome home meal for us Saturday night as well as a friend of mine brought over a meal. We didn't go hungry that is for sure! :) It is nice to know we have so many people caring for us! Mom and Dad left in the morning on Sunday and it has been just the four of us since. Quentin is still in the honeymoon phase I think... he pretty much eats, sleeps and poops! Mckenna is adjusting, she is quite the helper and loves to give kisses to her little brother! I am feeling ok, I am sore and trying to keep myself from pushing it too far. (Something that is hard for me to do!) Matt has been a big help and a great daddy to both his kids.

For now I am going to post some pictures. If you want to see the hospital pictures you can visit: www.bellababyphotography.com, go to view pictures, then use the password 0721quentinlucas1. We are anxiously awaiting the arrival of the CD to make prints and birth announcements! They are excellent pictures and I couldn't be happier!

First Day Home:

This is Mckenna's Big Sister gift! (A.K.A something to keep her busy! :)

Don't we all look TIRED? It was a LONG day!
Some things we have been up to:
Mckenna wants to help ALL the time! :)
First "bath" at home... he hated it!
All better, nice and warm in his towel.
We have truly been blessed! We are so thankful for all of our generous friends and family! 
Welcome Baby Quentin!
Have a great week! Love from the Lucas Family!
