Here he is making his first appearance into the world
Hi mommy and daddy
Diesel Albert Mortensen
7 lbs.
20 inches long
I had really high hopes that he wouldn't be in the NICU. The nurses even told me that we were going to stop and get the baby out of the Special care Nursery as we were heading to my room. I was so excited and nervous again. I had never had one of my kids in my room with me. But Diesel had other plans and decided he didn't want to breath, so he ended up in the NICU.The first time I got to hold him
Matts first time holding him
Brodyn and Dredyn getting all geared up to meet their baby brother
Dredyns first time holding Diesel
Brodyns first time holding Diesel
Diesel actually got to come home with us. He is the first baby that we have been able to take home with us. When the nurse told me that he was coming with us I didn't know whether I wanted to cry from excited that he got to come home or panic because I had never had a baby at home with me for at least the first two weeks.
Ready to go home
Brodyn made us a welcome home sign.
These two were so excited for us to be home. They are such good big brothers
Just a few pictures for fun, enjoy!!!
First bath at home
My mom was amazing and did all my housework, laundry, cooked, took Brodyn to school, entertained my kids all day and got up with Diesel at night so I could sleep. She even watched all three of our kids so Matt and I could go out on a date. I miss her a lot and I can't thank her enough for dropping everything and flying out the last minute to help me. I feel so lost without her. I can't wait for her to come back in a week. I love you mom, you are amazing, thank you for everything.
Our precious little baby
I couldn't ask for a better daddy for my kids. I love you Matt
We are just loving having Diesel here. He is such a good baby. He only cries when he is hungry and I just adore his cry. His hands and feet are Matt to a tee. Brodyn and Dredyn are such big helpers and love their baby brother to pieces. I love the little moments that I get with him to just snuggle and kiss him. He is growing so fast and I can't believe that he is already two weeks old and almost 8 lbs.

He is so dang cute Linsey! Congratulations! It's definately so different being able to bring home your healthy baby isn't it!?! I felt the same way about being excited yet nervous bringing home a newborn. Glad he is doing well. Congratulations to all of you!
