    Quick update – Labor & delivery lasted from Friday night to Sunday night…Evan has jaundice (poor baby!)…I fell down the stairs (!)…haven’t been able to sleep…breastfeeding is tough…most of my day is spent mesmerized by Evan! 

     

    I’ll update more when I get a chance to breathe.  I’m beyond exhausted but soooo in love.  Once I have time I’m thinking about switching to Friends Lock or Facebook so I can update more frequently!  Hope you’ve all been doing well~~~! 

     

    Love,

    Jenny

     

    P.S.  To all of you mommas out there…you gals are amazing!  I have no idea how you do all that you do…

  • Ahhhh congratz!! He’s adorable! I’m so happy for you. :)  

  • I’ve been wondering about you!  Congratulations!  Evan is so adorable!  I’m surprised how big he was, too, since you were so tiny!  You seriously must not have gained any weight at all besides the baby, placenta, & water!  I hope your recovering well and getting some rest!

  • hi evan darling~ welcome to xanga land!!! you know, he looks just like A but i see a lot of you in him too… isn’t it fun staring at them trying to figure out who they look like? SC says calista looks 100% like him and he credits me with something small like her hair or toes. in the first photo, evan looks so alert already~ he’s gonna be a smartie like his mommy & daddy… do i see a future wall street tycoon here? kekeke.

  • awwwwwwww congrats! You finally gave birth. I bet it feels amazing but a lot of hard work. Don’t worry it will pay off in the future haha :) I hope you get some rest or at least try :]

  • congratulations jenny!  i’m so happy for you and a and i can’t wait to hear evan’s journey :)

  • congrats to you both!! evan is gorgeous :)   it’s a tough time – especially the first few months but the rewards are endless!

  • congratulations!!! he is gorgeous!!!!!

  • he’s so adorable! congrats on your new addition to your family :)

  • omg – that is probably the cutest newborn i’ve ever seen!!! (except mine of course!)  he is darling!!!!  i know its exhausting and you will feel that way for about 6 weeks.  it gets easier though!  bf’ing is very hard, but stick with it if you can.  my baby is 9 months next week and we’re still going strong!  get a lactation consultant – i have a name of a good one.  she was a life saver since my baby was a preemie and he really needed to bf for his health.  congratulations! now go get some sleep.

  • congratulations! he is super cute!

  • hi jenny and EVAN!!!!  evan is sooo adorable and TINY!  i was surprised when i read he was 8 lbs..he doesn’t look it and i can’t even imgaine you carrying an 8 lb baby since you’re so small!  and girl…lemme just tell you, you look SOOO good!!  i can’t even tell u just had a baby.  congrats again…take care girl, i can’t believe you fell!!!!  you 3 make such a cute little family =)

  • Congratulations!!!  He is beeeutiful!!    Or should I say handsome!!  You look amazing (as always)!!!

  • Congrats! He is indeed a big baby!!! You look great :)

  • congratulations~!!  :O)

  • Congratulations!!…….. He’s so cute!!!!

  • He is adorable, I can see why stare at me all day.  And it took me a good 2 or 3 weeks to figure out the whole breast feeding thing, and even then I still had struggles (this is probably TMI, but I couldn’t produce enough milk no matter how much feeding/pumping I attempted to do).  Just know that eventually everything does kind of click and things do get easier.  Hope you are recovering for your fall, did you go see the doctor just to make sure everything is still in the right places?  And facebook is very addicting…I’m on there all the time and have been having a blast catching up with old friends.

  • Oh…I almost forgot, what’s your secret to looking so good in the hospital.  I definitely did not look that good when I was in there.

  • Congratulations, sweetie! wow! 48 hours of L&D! AND over 8 lbs! Woohoo! Moms are TOUGH- there is no question about it. I have so much respect for women who go through the process of childbirth. Still scares the pants off of me! Evan is a cutie pie- I love that name btw! Can’t wait to read your motherhood updates. Let me know if you’re going to be on facebook. I have that site open all day long on my computer.

  • congratulations jenny!!! ~  i heart evan so much and i havent even met him yet. dood, u were in labor for that long?? you look SO good…dont look like you gave birth at ALL. cant wait to hear about your birth story! ~ btw, be careful! no more falling down the stairs!! hopefully see you tomorrow xoxo

  • hey sis!!  i love the lil name tag thing u made of evan!  u should DEFINITELY join facebook!  ive already posted the pix you sent to me on my facebook so evan’s already made a debut on there.  =P  but i think u should totally join b/c im sure u have tons of other pix of him and it’s soo easy to post on there, it might be even faster than making a post on xanga cuz i know how limited ur time can be!!  i can’t wait to meet my nephew!!

  • WOW! CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! he is sooooooooooooooooooo adorable! wow. :)

    btw, he shares the same birthday as my bf! hehe :) so i’ll never forget evan’s special day… oh and you look GREAT for giving birth

  • OMG Jenny!  You look SO beautiful and content!  Evan is adorable!  You guys make a very good looking family.  Congrats, congrats! 

  • congratulations!  evan is a doll!  sounds like your right on track with being a mom of a newborn.  i think the first 3 months are the toughest but there is light (light, meaning a full night’s rest and easy breezy breastfeeding) at the end of this sleepless, blurry tunnel!

  • oh my goodness! oh my goodness! congratulations! your baby is beautiful! and you look tres fab for someone who just gave birth! congratulations once again and may God bless your family!

  • congratulations on your beautiful baby boy!!!  he is adorable~  get plenty of rest and sleep when you can~

  • Congrats babe!! Evan is adorable and the cool thing is that his weight&measurements are exactly the same as my little Tyler Ashton!!! How neat is that!! All the nurses told me that I had a pretty big baby for my petite frame:) I had to deliver C-section at last minute though, how about you?

  • CONGRATULATIONS! i send you an e-mail last week =). your baby Evan is adorable!! Congratulations!!!

  • aw congrats!!! he is sooo cute! I wanted to name our son Evan too but hubby wanted Diesel =/ Breastfeedin is very very hard….Keep up the good work! I had such a hard time and he wasnt latching on and lost more than 10 percent of his weight PLUS he had jaundice really bad so after going home we had to go back for two nights. It’s all worth it and jaundice is very common with asian babies. I pump now and bottle feed my breast milk. Just remmeber your not the only one having a hard time breastfeeding =)

  • CONGRATS Jenny! I can’t believe that tiny little you gave birth to an 8 lb 4 ounce baby boy.

    Welcome, Evan. You are so lucky to have such wonderful, loving parents.

  • Congrats!!! 

  • omg you’re a mommy!! congratulations!! evan is so adorable!!!!

  • Hello Mrs. Jenny,
    You made your site so simple yet elegant. The pictures are a nice touch. I see that you had your baby recently. Congratulations! I am reminded of an appropriate scripture: 3 While people are saying, “Peace and safety,” destruction will come on them suddenly, as labor pains on a pregnant woman, and they will not escape. (1Thessalonians 5:3) (NIV)
    I like to write articles about God and religion on my site to help people to really get to know what God’s plans are for us, especially in these troubled times.
