Landon Michael Sapp is here :)

Hey guys!  What I had hoped would be a routine birth turned out to be anything but.  When I have more time, I'll go into more details. I'm sure most of you know the story anyway.  We put in a hard day of labor but ended up having to have an emergency c-section.  I am still recovering from that of course and will be for the next several days.  Landon Michael finally arrived on the scene January 13, 2010 at 10:41 p.m.  Because he was a c-section baby, Daddy went with him to the nursery and introduced him to the family while I was being stapled back up and taken to recovery.  The sweetest sound that has ever tickled my ears was the sound of my baby crying after being pulled from my stomach in the OR.  I was so relieved that he was finally here and ok.  I was able to kiss him on the forehead before he was taken away.  I didn't get to see him again until 2 am.  Landon weighed 8 lbs. 2 ozs. and measured a whopping 21 inches long.  He is certainly the most beautiful baby I have ever seen.  What an amazing change that takes place in your heart.  I knew I was going to love him, but not like this.  And Joe is the most amazing Daddy and husband.  He's been wonderful with Landon and patient with me.  Recovery, so far, has not been a cup of tea. But Joe has made it more than bearable.  We have had so many people call, visit and offer to help that I just feel overwhelmed (in the best way possible).  I know this is scattered, but give me some credit. It's 5 am and Landon and I do not have our days and nights in order just yet.  I mainly wanted to post to show you some pictures of our angel.

Love all of us!
