HOT DAMN, this is exactly how I felt when I wrote this: http://darleeneisms.la/2014/05/third-baby-third-hospital/

First off, let me say right off the top that the pictures that I’m going to post here will not be posted on Facebook. I love all the notes and words of encouragement, but I’m still a little leery of posting these pictures on someone else’s website. Maybe when he’s older, I’ll post more pictures of him on Facebook, but until then — this will be the spot to get Michael news.
With that out of the way, I’m finally on the eve of being discharged from the hospital. I had to spend 4 days here, which were not boring at all — in fact, I think Trinity wishes they had been more boring. It’s been an eventful New Year’s holiday for us.
So, without further adieu, Michael Christian Powells was born at 9:37 p.m. on Jan. 1, 2010, at 3 pounds, 7 ounces and 16 inches long, with his eyes wide open. You may be wondering why he was born so small, but the fact that his eyes were wide open surprised me the most, really. But I will explain everything, if you have the patience to actually read through it all.
