Cohen John Mills

Our baby boy has finally arrived! He was born on March 23rd at 8:05 a.m. He weighed in at 8 lbs. 6 oz. and was a whopping 22 inches long! From the second he was born, we were in love! He is the sweetest, most mellow baby ever. (Fingers crossed, that he stays that way!) He has very long fingers and long, skinny legs. We were so glad to have Gran, Grandma Mills and Aunt Nini here for the birth. We love our families! I was probably most worried about how Addy would feel about this baby boy. It turns out that she loves him and has been a great big sister! We are so happy to have Cohen as part of our family.

Congratulations! So happy he is here and all is well. He is a cutie! Can I bring you dinner - maybe next week after your ward is done bringing you food?

Congrats! He's so darling! From that first picture I am guessing you had a c-section. Did you have one with Addie as well? I'm glad all went well and he is safely here, and I hope you are healing up nicely!

Oh, and good job on the blog name change. 4 by the sea just wouldn't have sounded right, but shore. Of course. Perfect.

I haven't checked your blog in a while. Glad to see that everyone is well and happy and at home together. Mine isn't here yet, but I hope that the 3.5 yr. olds have good relations with the younger siblings. Z keeps telling me all of the wonderful things she'll do with her sister and how she'll help when the baby comes. Kids are so sweet.

Congratulations again!

CONGRATULATIONS!!! I was just thinking of you and wondering if that little boy had arrived yet; happy to see a handsome boy and hear that everything is well. Very exciting. Life gets exponentially exciting with each child!;) (Did I say exciting, or challenging? And of course REWARDING!)

Congrats! 22 inches is so long! That is insane. He is super cute and I love the name. You will have to keep us posted on what life is like with a boy. That is something I will probably never experience :)
