It's A....

BOY!! Wesley Kirk Langhals was born on September 22. He still came just under two weeks early but it was longer than I had carried any of the others. He is beautiful and so sweet. And if it is possible for a baby to spoil his parents, he has. I am only getting up one time with him in the night to feed him! Today was the first day I had all 4 kids by myself and he slept 8 hours last night!! I am hoping this continues. We did make it through his due date with no change in his routine or demeanor (the due date was the time my other children discovered their ability to cry). All three of the older kids seem to be adjusting well to having another baby around. Keely is a natural little mommy. Once she found out the baby was a brother for Kres, she was bouncing off the walls excited. And now she does whatever is asked of her to help out. Macey doesn't remember Kres being a baby and is enamored with Wes. She turns into a timid, sweet caretaker when she gets around Wes.

Kres was the one I was most concerned about being around the baby. He seems to be in love! He is absolutely precious! We do have to make sure we keep an eye on him only because he tries to pick Wes up by himself or hugs him a little too tightly. But other than that, he is transitioning out of being the youngest well. We'll see if that lasts once Wes can get into Kres' stuff!

We get a mix of opinions as to who Wes looks like. I tend to think he looks altogether different than the other three, with Macey's eyes and Keely/Kres' mouth and nose. But I have had people tell me he looks like Keely and Kres and others say he looks like Macey. I have also heard he looks like a Suits baby. I guess the verdict is still out.

Our happy family of six! Doug and I say on a daily basis we truly are blessed!
