Things are just great here
At the Hotel Percocet.
Wish y’all were here, too!

There’s three meals a day,
laundry’s done for you - and drugs!
Best part? Happy dude.

    Wow, the percocet must really be great—I can’t believe you’re posting from the hospital!  Congratulations and what a cutie!!!  And all that hair!  Too cute.

    my spaminator word: length61
    (Just how long was he??)

    Oh, I don’t know that the tag is right :-D of course THAT has something to do with romance!! Nothing is more perfect in romance than a token of your love. Congrats, and enjoy the drugs. 2 years from now, you’ll be begging for more.

    Oh, how wonderful! A new Smart Dude to add to the family! He’s so incredibly handsome and perfectly adorable.

    Word check: big79

    Is that a hint as to his size? LOLOL

    Percocet didn’t work for me. I was terribly disappointed. Your sleeping man looks much more content today.

    My, he’s a handsome creature. I can almost smell him looking at that pic.

    Spam filter-changes59. I think there will be a few more than that.

    Breathtaking!

  7. Poison Ivy said on 09.17.07 at 02:42 AM[link]

    Congratulations.

    Too many thoughts to express.

  8. Wendy said on 09.17.07 at 02:43 AM[link]

    My blog commenting has been nil for the past week - so I’m late - but CONGRATS!  My, he sure is handsome.  All that hair, and he’s already losing that squishy-red-faced-newborn-look ;)

  9. Elyssa said on 09.17.07 at 03:01 AM[link]

    Congrats againt!  Baba is simply gorgeous.

  10. Elyssa said on 09.17.07 at 03:02 AM[link]

    Again not againt.  Slippery fingers!

  11. darlynne said on 09.17.07 at 03:07 AM[link]

    What a doll, Sarah. All the best to you.

  12. Darlene Marshall said on 09.17.07 at 03:55 AM[link]

    Awwwww!  What a sweetie!

    Enjoy the Percocets.  You’ll want them again when Baba’s 15.[g]

  13. Tina Anderson said on 09.17.07 at 03:57 AM[link]

    I’m elated for you…it’s a great trip, seriously. ^_^v

  14. Nicole said on 09.17.07 at 04:37 AM[link]

    Awww….congrats!

  15. Miriellie said on 09.17.07 at 05:28 AM[link]

    Congrats! He looks adorable.

    My word’s a bit ahead of you: hes17

  16. Kim said on 09.17.07 at 06:27 AM[link]

    He’s beautiful - absolutely beautiful…

    Now, step away from the keyboard and get some rest! =)

  17. Elizabeth said on 09.17.07 at 06:38 AM[link]

    Aw, he’s so cute!  Look at his little head of hair! *does that annoying “cooing over babies” thing that she always swears not to do*

    Congrats!

  18. Sphinx said on 09.17.07 at 06:48 AM[link]

    Yay!  No blankie-shadow for this man!  That is ALL HAIR.

  19. Jenyfer Matthews said on 09.17.07 at 07:24 AM[link]

    Enjoy that room service while you can!!

    Big snuggles to Baba.

    Spam word: cut65 - don’t cut one hair on that head!!

  20. Micki said on 09.17.07 at 08:17 AM[link]

    (-: Many congratulations! What a sweetie! Don’t let the drugs fool you into overworking yourself—take advantage of the Hotel Percocet luxuries!

    And with that many exclamation points, let me add one more—best wishes!

  21. Ziggy said on 09.17.07 at 08:48 AM[link]

    Ohhh he’s beautiful!

  22. SusanL said on 09.17.07 at 08:57 AM[link]

    Beautiful Baba.  Congratulations on your new family.

  23. Anna said on 09.17.07 at 09:49 AM[link]

    What a beautiful baby!  I’m relieved to see he’s has suffered no physical defects from mama reading about golden plated garbage trucks during pregnancy.

  24. smartmensab-tch said on 09.17.07 at 11:16 AM[link]

    He’s darling.  Just darling. And what a head of hair!

    OK Sarah, get as much rest as you can. I’ve never had a C-section, but I have had a hysterectomy, and for the first couple of weeks after, I needed LOTS of sleep.  And after that, I felt pretty good, but it took a few weeks to get my stamina back.

    C-section recovery must be tougher though ‘cause it follows a pregnancy.

    verification word: look56.  I’ve been having trouble sleeping, so I probably do. And I’m only 45. Yeah,OK, 46 in a couple weeks!

  25. Bron said on 09.17.07 at 11:25 AM[link]

    Sarah, he’s gorgeous! Congratulations to you and your DH, and to Baba’s big brother.

    Take advantage of the drugs and enjoy as much rest as you can.

  26. Bron said on 09.17.07 at 11:28 AM[link]

    (And a snort at smartmensab-tch’s verification word. I’m 45 in a couple of weeks, but got mistaken today for a friend’s mother, and was congratulated on my ‘grandchildren.’ At least the person thought they were gorgeous and well-behaved!! )

  27. Nora Roberts said on 09.17.07 at 12:13 PM[link]

    Look what a great job you did! He’s delicious.

  28. Lorelie said on 09.17.07 at 01:58 PM[link]

    Day-um, that’s a whole lotta hair.  Wowza.  I just love that perfect little bow of a mouth too.

    So when you wanna set up a play date?  Mine’s 3 mo old now.  ;)  j/k

  29. Chrisbookarama said on 09.17.07 at 02:16 PM[link]

    Aw, he’s gorgeous! I hope he holds onto that hair.

  30. Amelia "Fuckheady Bitchipants" Elias said on 09.17.07 at 02:48 PM[link]

    I 46th the comment about AWWW LOOK AT THAT HAIR and WOW HE’S SO DAMN CUTE and all related cooing-type posts.  Wish I could give that cute little guy a great big snuggle!  Has Freebird met his brother yet?  I wanna see some pics of that!

    And dear, yes, this post IS really about romance, or do you need a refresher course on where babies come from, hmm?  You see, Sarah, when a mommy and a daddy love each other very much…

  31. snarkhunter said on 09.17.07 at 03:08 PM[link]

    Wee Bitchlet Baba
    Just as cute when sleeping as
    when screaming lungs out.

    Seriously. SO CUTE. His little nose!! And all that hair…

  32. Ann Bruce said on 09.17.07 at 03:11 PM[link]

    Wow!  That’s quite the head of hair for a newborn.  I’m jealous…actually, I’m more jealous of the drugs and the three meals and the laundry.  *sigh*

  33. Becky said on 09.17.07 at 03:37 PM[link]

    He’s adorable!  Congrats Sarah and family!

  34. AmandaG said on 09.17.07 at 03:43 PM[link]

    Cute wittle baby head! I want to sniff him. lol

    Glad the percocet is working for you.  All it did to me was make me sleep.

    I’m guessing your hospital must be like mine was, only 2 channels on the tv and nothing to do but walk in circles around the floor while baby was sleeping.  I would have been all over the internet, too, if we had brought the computer. lol

  35. MZ said on 09.17.07 at 04:28 PM[link]

    Healthy and beautiful, look at those rosy cheeks. You did well, my dear. Congratulations. A wish for a pain free, speedy recovery.

  36. Leah said on 09.17.07 at 04:54 PM[link]

    Congratulations, Sarah!  To add all my fawning and exclaimation points, he’s absolutely adorable.  And, really - that hair!  Hope you’re able to squeeze in some rest and good reading between snuggles (and diaper changes and feedings and cryfests

    ).

  37. Hollyn said on 09.17.07 at 05:14 PM[link]

    Aww what a little cutie! Congrats and best wishes for a speedy recovery

  38. Jackie L. said on 09.17.07 at 05:31 PM[link]

    Fabulous!!!  He’s almost too pretty to be a boy.  Congrats.

  39. karibelle said on 09.17.07 at 05:59 PM[link]

    Awwwww.  What a sweetie!  I agree with previous posters.  I just wanna smell his head. Nothing smells better than baby head.  Baby butt….not so much.

    Enjoy the Percocet, (that rx never seems to last long enough,) and enjoy that baby.  They grow up too fast!

  40. Walt said on 09.17.07 at 06:20 PM[link]

    Oooh!  Lots of hair! 

    In some cultures, it’s good luck to shave the head of the baby.  I thought that was an urban legend, until I saw it with my own eyes.  Of course, some of those same cultures also marry off first cousins, so I guess they trust their luck more than most…

  41. Janet Mullany said on 09.17.07 at 06:50 PM[link]

    Huge congratulations! What a beautiful baby and I hope you make a quick recovery.

  42. --E said on 09.17.07 at 07:24 PM[link]

    Look at all that hair! Congrats, Mom!

  43. KristenMary said on 09.17.07 at 07:55 PM[link]

    Congratulations and a hearty welcome to Baba O’Reilly.

    Your birth experience sounds very similar to mine last Nov. Went in to be induced, party never started, ended up with a c-section and a 10 lb baby boy. I recovered pretty quick. One tip, take the pain meds when the pain is tolerable because it will shortly not be tolerable and they won’t work as well. Trust me.

  44. Melanie said on 09.17.07 at 08:03 PM[link]

    Congrats Sarah!  Awwww he’s soooo cute too precious for words, enjoy

  45. skyerae said on 09.17.07 at 08:56 PM[link]

    Aww, he perfect.  Congratulations.

  46. Kiku said on 09.17.07 at 09:14 PM[link]

    Mazel tov! He’s beautiful!

  47. Kaite said on 09.17.07 at 09:42 PM[link]

    Awww. He’s adorable! Congratulations!

    Spaminator word: times16. Congratulations times 16! :-)

  48. sara said on 09.17.07 at 09:51 PM[link]

    OMG I LOVE HIS HAIR. Well done, you.

  49. Ines said on 09.17.07 at 10:20 PM[link]

    Congratulations!!!
    Hope you enjoy the stay at the hospital, when you do not have to think of meals, laundry ... and you can concentrate on the new man of the house!

  50. smartmensab-tch said on 09.17.07 at 10:23 PM[link]

    Re pain pills: I second KristenMary based on my experience with a hysterectomy and a (to quote my dr.) “very big” herniated disc.

  51. Samantha Graves said on 09.18.07 at 01:01 AM[link]

    Oh, he’s absolutely beautiful!  Hugs to you both.

    Girl, congrats and best wishes. You will have to show a pic sometime soon. I have admired many of your honest reviews. I can’t wait to have you back on the heels of authors like me. Check this out sometime and tell me what you think, it would be an honor.

  53. Michelle said on 09.18.07 at 03:22 AM[link]

    What a beautiful baby (not that bald babies can’t be cute)-gorgeous hair.  Hope you have a speedy recovery.

    Hmm Soviet71 is the security word-wonder what that means?  Maybe he will be multilingual?

  54. DebR said on 09.18.07 at 06:04 AM[link]

    Aaawww…he’s gorgeous!! Congrats, Sarah!!

  55. Zoe Archer said on 09.18.07 at 06:18 AM[link]

    Holy crap!  I am *so* late to the party!

    Mazel Tov, Bitch, and welcome to the world, Baby Bitch!

  56. maya said on 09.18.07 at 08:31 AM[link]

    Congratulations, what a lovely little one. And to him: welcome to this glorious earth!

  57. Jenyfer Matthews said on 09.18.07 at 08:52 AM[link]

    You know, all the talk about Baba’s wonderful hair reminds me that when I had my first baby, she literally had peach fuzz (little redhead) We were living in the United Arab Emirates at the time and most of the local girls who came to visit us recommended that we shave off all that yucky newborn hair (that’s not what they said but it was implied) so that her real hair would grow in thicker.

    I did not take their advice!! And her real hair is just fine, thanks :)

  58. Casee said on 09.18.07 at 05:18 PM[link]

    OMGosh, he is so freaking adorable!!!

  59. Jackie said on 09.18.07 at 05:40 PM[link]

    He is SO cute!!!!!!!!!!!!

  60. Deb said on 09.19.07 at 04:42 AM[link]

    Oh my gosh!  Look at that beautiful head of hair!  He’s adorable.

  61. Ky Eliza said on 09.21.07 at 12:25 AM[link]

    Oh, many, many, many congratulations!  He’s beautiful!
