Our Firstborn!

Tanner John Lambert was born May 23, 1996 after an 18 hour labor and eventually a c-section. We were thrilled! My pregnancy was however, horrible! Toward the end I developed a "pregnancy rash." I wanted to die! My legs looked like I had been burned in a fire. My OB casually commented that this was the worst "prego rash" he'd ever seen. (I almost killed him!) Luckily birth is the cure...and we loved our little guy instantly. He looked like his father's twin for sure. Tanner wasn't the easiest newborn...lots of tummy aches , spit up and nights walking the floor. But, the payoff came when he was 5 months old and started sleeping through the night. Oh how he loved his bed! At bedtime he would just DIVE in! (He still does!:))I think with a few exceptions he's slept through the night ever since!

Our life revolved around this little boy for almost two years! I was able to stop working when he was 8 months old and stay home with him full time. He kept me busy...it was a joy!
