We welcomed Jackson Charles McCandless Buck into our lives on March 22, 2011 at 1:54 pm. He weighed in at 7lbs. 8oz. and his height was 20in. He arrived into our arms VERY QUICKLY but very healthy. His Mamma had some issues that caused us to be in the hospital longer than usual. I was hemorrhaging after he was born and had emergency surgery. I then developed postpartum preeclampsia. My blood pressure sky rocketed and I developed a severe headache which led the Doc. to test my platelets and liver enzymes, The enzymes were too high and the platelets were too low so they placed me on magnesium sulfate. The stuff was terrible. I couldn't get out of bed for two days nor could I be alone with Jack at any time which made feeding him in the middle of the night a bit tricky:( However we made it through and are both doing great now.
Benjamin is such a wonderful older brother. He gives Jack little kisses and will go over to check on him to make sure he is still there and ok. It is so cute:) Other than that Benjamin has remained unfazed by this whole transition, which blows me away. I am so proud of him and can't wait to see them interact and play together when Jack gets a little bigger.
