Joseph Daniel Smoter

Last night before Joseph was born.  We were all so excited!

Off to Grandma and Grandpa's house to drop off the boys before headed to the hospital
Waiting for an operating room to be available

About to get rolled down

 HE IS HERE!  November 22, 2014 @ 5:10pm
He weighed 6lbs 4 oz and was 19 1/2 inches long















 He passed all his test from the nicu team in the operating room so Joseph was going to get to stay with me.   We were thrilled

 Unfortunately it didn't last long :(
Off to the NICU and on CPAP
 Jenny made it in town right in time!  So thankful for her friendship.  She was there when they took Joseph to the NICU and I was a mess.  Grateful for friends and family who loved on me in my moment of suffering.  I knew that Joseph would be ok it is just so hard having your baby taken from your arms...even when you know it is temporary.

 I had to wait 12 hours to see and hold him again.

 PERFECT








 Jude wasn't so sure about Joseph

 Thankful for Grandma and Grandpa who watched the 3 boys while we were in the hospital

 They delayed feeding him for a few days so he ended up needing to go under lights for a day






 Nathan, Joseph and I spent Thanksgiving in the hospital.  Here is the feast that the hospital provided.






 CLEARED TO GO HOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!  After a week in the NICU we were so grateful to get to take our sweet boy home!
