Thomas Karl Christensen

Hey everyone so we had a baby February 22 at exactly 12:38 pm and he was 7.11 lbs and 19 3/4 inches.  I know most people would write the birth story and give you literally all the juicy details, but I'll forgo that so if you want to know give me a call and we'll talk all about it.  Also, I'm really tired and can't think especially clearly so I'll let the pictures do the writing before I say something that makes no sense.

Welcome aboard baby!  Origins of the name.  Thomas-I really like that name and Todd agreed.  Karl-The birth certificate worker gave us the form and told us she'll be back in 15 minutes to pick it up.  I told Todd I was going to shower and to think of a middle name. He called Dave for a man conference (manfrence?). Karl was the consensus. Christensen- One day he'll be a viking god.



I'm really lucky to have both my mom and sister here to help out.  I know Soren is even happier because they both cater to his every demand and junk food craving.

Soren and Tommy meet for the first time. . . I think it went well?




Even after we brought Tommy home, Soren still needed some space.

So dramatic.

Coming home after two nights of sleeping on a hospital bed that randomly inflated and deflated.  I would almost label that as the worst part of my hospital  stay if it wasn't for the five straight hours nausea (moving bed did not help!).

  Yay for having another baby.  We are all excited to have Thomas home (well 2/3 is good enough) and are excited to watch him grow and learn mischievous behaviors from his older brother!

  1. First of all, those hospital beds are the absolute worst! I was glad to find out that not all hospitals have them, so hopefully it will be better with your next one.

    Second, and more important, Thomas is adorable! I am glad you are all doing well.
