Here are a couple videos of our little one...

Philippe is here!

Wow! It seemed like forever, those 41 weeks lasted a long time but at the same time it seems like it went by so fast!!! Weird huh? But finally last tuesday we headed to the hospital around 8:00am, we suspected that Candice's water had broke but weren't sure. However she was determined to make a stop at iHop and have some breakfast. Heck no!!! What is she nuts? So we just headed straight to the hospital, and we were right! Her water had broke, minutes later she started having some contractions that kept getting stronger and closer, She got to a level 8!!! But fortunately around noon she got her epidural and pitosin to help with the labor and the pain. Around five she was already a 10 in dialation and after resting a little bit she started pushing. Oh boy, Philippe wouldn't do a thing! He was taking a nap I guess... but also he was pretty big! Finally Dr. Noorda came in and after a few pushes gave us some options: Either we used the vaccum or forceps, or we had to C-section. Candice decided on forceps, she was determined on banning the c-section option.
It was 7:23 when our little one came out! Honestly? Scary... he wasn't breathing and the had to do resucitation on him for 2 maybe three minutes, but it felt like 1 hour. We thank our Heavenly Father that he is fine now, and it is such a great blessing for us to have him in our lives. He is 9 lbs 13 oz, measured 22 inches and he is one handsome little man. For all of you friends, we present...

Decorating baby's room!

Hey here are just some pictures of our baby's room and how it's looking so far. And a picture of Candice as well!

It's a BOY!!!

So after a late night of work for Marcel, we had to wake up early on New Year's Eve to get ready and head out to the Doctor's to get the big new and find out whether our baby was a boy or a girl. Not too long after we got started with the ultrasound, they asked us if we wanted to know... uh... HELLOOO!!!!!!!! So they told us, IT'S A BOY!!!
We are so excited about it, right after we stopped by Old Navy and picked out a couple outfits for our little one. We are stoked, it seems more real now and it's kinda weird when we talk about him. Now we're looking at name and have a few options, but still looking, so we'll let you know when the name has been chosen.
