Even though I have been pee'ed on twice in the last 24 hours I still can not get enough of this kid.


so adorable I can't stand it

DJ's story


He is finally here - WAHOOO!

Daniel James Larsen decided to make his Earthly debut on Thursday, June 4th at 11:30.

Little dude was scheduled to arrive at 9:30 but thanks to a few other unpatient babies who were delived on a gurney in the halls of the hospital we had to take our turn.

Here is our story (with quite a few pictures...get comfy)!

This is Momma - about ready to pop - I really can't believe my buddah belly not to mention the poor, poor shirt being stretched to the limit!

You know I am not proud of my size and to make matters worse my when my parents flew into town to take care of Sarah and the first thing my Dad said to me was "You are HUGE!"

Thanks Dad. :)

My McDreamy all ready to assist in the delivery.

Ok, so these goo covered pictures are not the best but it is part of DJ's
story so the squeemish should look away!

First, everyone in the operating room commented on his red
hair so naturally we thought he actually had red hair - turns
out he was just covered in the goo of life and indeed does not have red hair.

Second, c-section babies are known to be pretty,
not misshapen or abused from the trek the natural
way out but not my boy. Nope. He would not come out!

After much cutting and prying and at least 2 people jumping
on my belly little DJ had to be sucked out!

The doctor later appoligized to him for giving him his first hickey.


My dude looking much better after a bath and a little time to let his noggin heal.


Nana and Papa's first visit and of course my dad brings the official Stenquist welcome to the family gift - a gun. And yes, he did get quite a few stares for bringing that to the hospital but this being Texas he got quite a few high fives too!

A toast to the new arrival



And best of all a welcome to the world kiss from his big sister!
