January: Welcome Oliver!
After 20 hours of labor and successfully completing the natural birth that I'd so hoped to do (but seriously doubted my sanity 16 hours into it all) Oliver Zachary Ingersoll was born a hefty 8 lbs. 14 oz. and 20.75 in. long. He was pink, perfect and 100% worth it!
Healthy boy!
Zach is a proud dad!
I was so stinkin' proud of myself (go me!) for bringing Oliver into the world naturally. He arrived alert, hungry and ready to cuddle.
Sleeping soundly.
I love Oliver's goofy look.
A very unhappy camper as we left the hospital. However, it was a sign of good things to come when he quieted down and quickly fell asleep on the wheelchair ride out to the car. He still can't stay awake when in a moving vehicle.
Cokee and Grandpa Griff. My two sweet grandparents who will be amazing great grandparents to Oliver.
Uncle Jason loves Oliver!
Grandma Kris.
Uncle Mitch got weekly text updates from me about Oliver's size--from a sesame seed at week 4 to a watermelon at week 39. He finally got to meet the little guy he'd heard so much about.
Oliver's great great grandma Laura.
Grandma Kathi who adores her little boy!
Grampy Pat and Oliver.
Dad, Oliver...
...and mom making our first outing to the dog park.
"Big brother" Harrison is less than enthused about the newest addition to the family.

Awaiting Oliver's Arrival
Crib...
...and changing table from Costco. Thanks Grandma Kathi!
Baby Ingersoll's gifts started trickling in throughout the fall.
Organizing the closet.
It took us 3 months to put the crib and changing table together...not because we can't follow directions but because we can't finish a project in one night. That would make life too easy.
Comfy bed.
Oliver loves laying on the changing table and looking at the pictures on the wall.
My mom rocked both of her kids in this rocking chair. It has already gotten good use for our first too.
Oliver's wall art.
Keepsakes.
Baby Ingersoll at 20 weeks. We held firm during the big ultrasound and kept BI's gender a secret.
I felt this foot quite a lot! Now I love watching it kick outside of my tummy.
