Its been pretty busy around here lately…. here is a recap of the past several days.
October 6th, 2012 1:36pm – Camron Hart Darlington enters the world. He weighs 7 pounds 11 ounces and is 21.6″ long.
Minutes after Camron is born, the first family photo
After he was born and got to spend some time with his parents he was taken to the nursery to get a quick check up and make sure he was alright. While Ally was recovering I got to tag along and keep him company.

Once Camron was given the “all clear” by the doctors he and I got to visit Ally in the recovery room. She was hooked up to a couple monitors and they all started sounding the alarm when we came in.

The first day was a bit crazy so once we finally all settled in and had a chance to admire our baby we had our families visit us in the hospital on day two so we could introduce Camron to the family.

Day three was a bit scary, nothing bad happened or anything, just that it was time for us to go home. We had to leave the comfort of the hospital with all the wonderful nurses and amazing doctors all looking out for baby and momma. The entire staff at the hospital was simply amazing, everyone was so kind, caring and professional, it truly was a wonderful experience.

Bundled up for his first car ride
It was the scariest car ride ever, again nothing bad happened, just that we now had this extra little person in the car. We ended up taking all back roads home, I drove like a 90 year old, I wanted to only make right turns so we didn’t have to cross traffic. It was scary…. Eventually though we all made it home safely.
Welcome home Camron
Now begins the next chapter in our life, already it has been so amazing, we are all looking forward to many more wonderful memories with out newest addition to the family.
P.S. Rusty and Cuervo are both getting along great with Camron, the cat pretty much just ignores him. Rusty will come stand and stare at us when he starts to cry, when we take him out of the crib he has to smell him to make sure everything is okay. He even gave him his first kiss!
Adventures of Cam & Cal 
Congrats to both of you! We hope life is adjusting well at home with Camron. We would love to make a meal to drop off for you but don’t know what day would be best. Please text Tony & let us know how we can help.

I know how weird it is to be “out in the world” with the baby at first. It’s a new world, afterall, with the most important and precious person in the world now in residence, and one wonders if others got the memo, about how careful they need to now drive, etc.. Congratulations on taking the big journey home with him! Now is it’s own magical time, arriving and being HOME. SUCH a special time. XOXOXO to all of you. I am savoring with you the specialness of introducing him to Rusty and Cuervo, and his home that he’s never seen before…. it’s a magical time.
Love to you all. And I LOVE seeing the pictures of Dada Eric and Mama Ally. Wow you two. Parents!!
Congratulations, Eric and Ally! What a beautiful baby boy! Another Darlington to carry on the name…way to go! Speaking of names, I really like Cameron Hart. My girls will be excited to see the pictures of their second cousin. They still talk about our road trip to your wedding all the time. Hope we can see you guys some day on our next trek out east!
