Great news!

Samuel Martin Nowicki (aka Bubba) arrived on December 26, 2010 at 6:21 a.m., weighing 5 lbs. 9 oz. and measuring 18". Since Sam was born 5 weeks premature, he needed a little extra care and is spending a little time in the NICU. He is doing extremely well and we hope to take him home tomorrow. All in all, he is a cute little bugger.

Yes, he was born the day of the big blizzard and we live in the hardest hit area of New Jersey, the part with all of the cars abandoned everywhere. My husband went home on Sunday around dinnertime to look in on our eldest son and couldn't get back to the hospital for two days. We live about three miles from the hospital, which should tell you how bad it was here.

I got released today and after basically living in the hospital for a month, I've gotten very used to it here and am saddened to leave because all of the staff here are wonderful, especially the nurses in the Antepartum unit who are just incredible.

Well, you'll certainly have a story to tell your son about his birth!

Congratulations! I hope Samuel will be joining the rest of your family at home very soon!

That's wonderful news! My twin girls were born 4wks early but 36wks is practically full term for twins so they got to come home with me. However, I understand how you feel about leaving. I LOVED all our nurses. :)

My husband flies into Newark often and all his flights were cancelled last week so he got to stay home during that time (good for us, not those stranded).

I imagine it was driving your husband nuts being so close and unable to get to you. All is well now and you are blessed. Congratulations!

Hope he comes home soon!

I also live in NJ...and you aren't kidding...WOW! That was some snowstorm. I was happy the kids were home this week. Today was the 1st I went out.

Congratulations, Amanda! And welcome to little Sam! Talk about a snow baby!

Glad you were already at the hospital... during the worst of it, I thought of the women who might be having to head to the hospital to deliver babies.
