11lbs 5 oz

Now, what are a few things that come to mind when you think of 11lbs 5 oz?

I think of a very large Christmas ham or 2 5 pound weights + a pound and a half. I also think of one of my new chairs I just bought to go along with my dining room table ( ok maybe the chair is a little heavier). Christopher said he thinks of twins at birth with their weight put together. These are just a few but I wanted you to get the idea that 11lbs 5 oz can be a heavy load.

Now, what are somethings that don't come to mind when you think of 11lbs 5 oz?

I guess I wouldn't think of, lets say, a spring chick or my purse. I probably wouldn't think of a blanket or my cell phone. I wouldn't think of a little kitty or the bag of baby carrots I got at the store last week. I think I would definitely not think of a new born baby, especially if that new born baby was my sister's and she had pushed it out through the birthing canal!

But I'm here to tell you folks that I have a new little nephew, who remains nameless, that weighed 11lbs 5 oz at birth. Needless to say he is very large and has lots of chubs, just what we Jones girls like! The fatter the better!! Maybe not right when they come out, right Abs?

Anyway, my sister is amazing. She was in labor for 42 hours and could have had a c-section on the first day but that is not what she wanted. She is pretty cool. I think she is my new hero!

Can't wait to see you nameless!!! I love you Abby and Jonathon. Congrats guys!!

Sorry I don't have any pictures to post, I'm not there remember!!! :(
