Home For Lunch . . .

Quick update as I am home for 20 minutes to grab some lunch (they dont feed the fathers at the hospital . . .not even on fathers day . . .wah wah wah) and pick up the "boppy" to bring back to Amanda.

Thanks everyone for your love and support! You will all meet him soon. I left in a rush and forgot the camera so I will post pics tomorrow when we are home. Maybe Kranthony can put some on their blog????

We have our cell phone at the hospital. 207 660 2177

Callum latched on for the first time this morning, and fed from Amanda. The whole breastfeeding process has been the toughest part so far . . .very frustrating

I am back to the hospital. Just loving Thomas, feeding him, eating a salad, and grabbing the boppy. See you all soon

LOve Jared, Amanda, and Callum (wow it feels great to write that . . . )

Hi guys! It was great to see you ALL at the hospital today...Amanda, you are looking fantastic, Callum is absolutely adorable, and Jared...well, Jared, you're great, too. :) I'll have lasagna and Shephard's Pie for you to eat, refrigerate, or freeze for the week - talk to you tomorrow!

He's beautiful! (I snuck over to Chris and Michelle's). Amanda, for the first couple of days I felt like a cow or a dairy bar. Nick nursed fine, but I just didn't have it in me after the exhausting experience of birth to fuss with nursing bras and the like... so it was a big flannel shirt (helped that it was November), unbuttoned and hanging all out. My BIL showed up to see us, and I said something about, hope you don't mind... Nope, I think he was actually kinda thrilled to see the big old milk full boobs hanging around. I hope it gets easier for you... It is such a great thing for you and Callum. Sorry dad you miss out on this aspect.

Hi Jared, Amanda & Callum!

Callum is sooo..... handsome! I can't wait to meet him in person this summer. Emma is very excited too!

I'm glad you posted your cell phone # today b/c last night I tried to get onto my computer to get your # out of my contacts and my computer is dead. So you will be getting a call from the Chiemiego's this evening if thats ok and things aren't too hectic.

I can't wait to hear how Thomas P likes his new brother.

Amanda you look fabulous! Callum truly is a gift from God. Enjoy this time because they grow so fast.

hello!! sorry we haven't had a chance to write a comment yet!! but we just wanted to say that Callum is such a handsome little boy and we're so excited for your new little family!!! I tried calling you tonight to see how you were settling back into your house with the new addition, but you didn't answer. But I'm sure you guys are just relaxing and enjoying being together, the three of you. I'll call you sometime tomorrow. Everyone looks good though and that new baby is so precious! can't wait to see him again very soon!! Have a good night, love you!
