Mason Antonio Dominguez

Mason Antonio Dominguez arrived Wednesday, August 18th at 10:35pm.  He weighed 7 lbs 14 oz. and is 20 1/2 long.  Both mother and baby are doing fine.  He is absolutely beautiful and we all are joyful!  He has a full head of dark hair, and looks a lot like his daddy.  His skin is very light right now, but that could change.  He has very long fingers and feet, just like Sarah did.  Auntie Sarah is turning inside out and can't wait to come and see him tomorrow after work.

I got home last night about 2;30 am and was exhausted.  I had been up almost 24 hours.  It was a very long day, and very hard to watch my daughter in pain, but everything went well, and the baby did good all day long.  They had Jenna wait while she was at 10 to push for the doctor to come and she told me when I checked on her then that she didn't care as she was exhausted.  She only had to do 4 pushes and he was out so that was great.  Lennard and Heather were here all day too and stayed till it was over, saw everyone for a few minutes after it was done to make sure they were all okay and then they headed home.  Mason is such a little bundle of joy and a very good baby so far.  He lets you know when he doesn't like something but when you stop, he quiets right down by himself.  We all love him so, but as you know, he was very loved before he even arrived.  He is starting to stir right now and mom and dad are both trying to nap a little bit before their celebration dinner so it is more Grandma and Mason time!  He will have his circumcision in the morning tomorrow, and then I will bring them home in the afternoon.   Love, and miss you all!  Elaine
