Welcome Alexander Michael Arickx







Alexander decided he was ready to enter this world about four weeks early. Labor started for me when I got up on Sunday morning, even though I tried really hard to deny this since I was scheduled for a c-section on July 28. After trying hard to deny my contractions, my water broke and I knew I had to accept the fact that we were going to have a baby sooner rather then later. Jeremy and I arrived at the hospital around 2:45 pm and Alexander joined us at 4:30 pm. He weighed 8 pounds, 4 ounces and was 20 inches long. The nurses and doctors were all very surprised by his weight since he was early, but we all decided that he was done! Aiden was very excited to meet his new baby brother!
