Week 1 down . . . so many awesome weeks to come

Well . . . we made it through week one with lots of tears (of joy) and many moments thankful for our jobs, vacation/off time, time together, and most importantly a healthy son.  He had many first time experiences such as stroller rides, trip to pediatrician, meeting some great friends, and to top it off meeting his first Grandparent, Grandma Koski.  Carolyn arrived last night and will be helping out this week around the house and with some other baby duties (date night has already been scheduled, thanks Carolyn).  Meri is kicking butt and recovery well from the delivery day and we can't wait for some more sunny weather in Cleveland.  Next stop will be a Cleveland Indians game and meeting more friends and family.  Check out some pics below from his first week as a Clevelander.

Introducing . . . . CALEB JAMES MCNULTY!!!!!!

All we can say is WOW. . . . what an awesome life event that will be cherished forever.  Caleb James McNulty was born on 4/14/14 at 2052 in the evening at Hillcrest Hospital (Cleveland Clinic) in good ol' Cleveland, Ohio.  He weighed in at 8lbs 10oz and was 21 inches long.  Meri was a rock star during the entire birthing and pushed hard (stage 2 of labor) for 1hr.  We just arrived home yesterday (he loved the car ride) around 1600 and are adapting to the new environment, routine, and of course the valuable breast feeding game.  Caleb is a total "ham" and Meri and I can't stop staring at him and then burst into tears of joy and are simply so grateful for his health and to have started a family together.  He can't wait to meet everyone, go skiing, and ring some cowbells.  Thanks again to everyone for their support and endless love we receive everyday.  We will update this blog with new pictures every week (that is the goal), so stay tuned . . . . . As always CARPE DIEM!!
