William Austin Hoskins V was born on December 17, 2007. He was a healthy 8lb 4oz, and a long 21.5 inches! Mom had it pretty easy in labor, delivering him in just 4 pushes. We are so thankful that he is healthy and happy!

As of today, he is three and a half weeks old. He has already celebrated two big holidays and visited with lots of friends and family.

His weight was up to 8lb 12oz at his last appointment, so he's a very agressive eater. He's sleeping in 4-5 hour chunks at night, much to our pleasure! Occasionally he doesn't want to go back to sleep, but overall we have been very lucky that he likes to sleep.

His favorite place to lounge during the day is his magic swing. All babies should have a swing! He also loves to be swaddled and held.

We'll post more pictures and slide shows later once I learn how to use this blog!
