Oh, so in love!

Well, the new addition to our family has finally arrived. Dennis "Dutch" John Doherty was born May 21, 2008 at 3:14pm weighing 8 lbs. 2 oz. and was 21 in. long. DJ and I are adjusting to parenthood and the new schedule that it brings, but wouldn't change it for anything in the world. Actually, he is a great baby and usually will sleep through the night with one or two feedings in between. We are so blessed to have such a precious baby in our lives!!! Because of his arrival, DJ's sister, Meghan, came to town for the whole week! It was so nice to see her and have her meet Dutch - by the time she sees him again he will be 3 months old and will have changed so much.

Also, we are so excited for our friends Jenna and Stephen. They welcomed their new baby boy, Cash Charles Metherell, on May 28, 2008. It is so nice that the two boys will be so close in age. I hope they will have the kind of friendship that DJ and I have with the two of them.

As for us, it is that time of year again - weddings and showers. We have a few coming up and it will be nice to get out of the house and do some "grown-up" things after being in the house for a couple of weeks.

Anyhow, I have posted some pics of the little guy while we were in the hospital and a few more once we arrived home. Enjoy!
