Harrison Jones Codd joined us on Tuesday, April 3 -- one day after Carey's Mom's birthday! (And on the same day as Meredith's Aunt Patty.)
Harrison weighed 8 lbs, 15 ounces -- the same as his brother, Jackson, and was born in the same delivery room as his brother.
Meredith labored through a natural birth -- impressing not only her awed husband but her midwife and doula. She's recovering nicely.
Upon meeting Harrison, big brother Jackson's attitude seemed somewhere between disinterested and dismissive.
By the end of the week, Jackson was heard to say, "Harrison all gone" and also "Hug Harrison."
The transition is a work in progress.
We've been fortunate to have Meredith's mother Cheryl and sister Mallory assisting us. They've been a godsend! Harrison also got introduced to his Aunt Madeline via Skype, his Aunt Susie and his Grandpa Jones and Grandma Bonnie. He also met his Nana (Nancy) and Poppy & Gramsy (Jim & Doe) via Skype.
We are deeply blessed!
