i've returned--alive but still hurting. and laden with pictures of lucas sebastian, born july 30th, 2004. he weighed 7 pounds, 7 ounces, and was 20 inches long.

me and my baby:

this one's right after he was born. ahhh, morphine.
and this is just a couple of days ago. i think it was gas. :P
okay. and one more. he's stylin' and profilin'.
i'm still on bed rest, pretty much, after the surgery. but soon i'll be all better. be back soon--once i'm able to tackle the stairs regularly. i know you can hardly wait!
