Our Baby Boy is Here!

Mayes McCarter Jones was born on June 1 at 10:00 p.m. and weighed 6 lbs 14 oz. and 20 in. long. I had gone to my 37 week appointment that day and found out I was already dialated to a 4. My doctor said we could go ahead and go to the hospital but Carter and I decided to just wait and see what happened. I ran some errands with Ellie after the appointment and could tell that I was having contractions. So, when we got home I called the nurse and she said that we should go ahead and go up to the hospital and get monitored. I was dialated to a 5 by then so they admitted me at 4:00 and 6 hours later, Mayes was here! He surprised us a little early but he is doing just fine. Our hospital stay went by so fast and we were home before we knew it. So far he is a really good baby and is eating really well. He is still tiny though..we had his first appointment today and he weighed 6lbs. 4oz. Won't be long til he is chasing after big sis though!

Jayme, he is so beautiful! Doug was that size, too, and it is bringing back memories. How is Ellie adjusting? You look beautiful. I am so excited for your family!

Love,
