As of this posting, Heidi gave birth to our son six days ago and so far parenthood has been wonderful.
A little about the labor, Heidi was in labor for 26 hours all told and pushed for 3 hours. It sucked a little bit but we got a healthy baby boy out of it so the ordeal was absolutely worth it. If you want more details, you’ll have to ask us in person and we’d be happy to answer your questions. You know how the internet is: Once you put it out there, you can never truly get it back.
So I invite you to take a look at our first few moments as a family. I won’t be putting these photos up on my photography page so you’re welcome to comment here if you’d like to comment at all.
We’ll start with just after the delivery:
“I just delivered a baby yesterday” – Heidi. That’s a recovery breakfast if I ever saw one.
Our friends Thomas and Hannah stopped by and Thomas took a few frames for us.
Thanks to Jonathan for getting these next few. Sorry I don’t have a post on my blog of he and his wife Carly to show :).
Some of my family spent Saturday and Sunday helping out around our house. Thanks, fam!
Here are a few mommy-baby shots.
First bath. Look at that little pout.
What a beautiful gift! May he be blessed forever.

Loved Loved LOVED seeing these! Hope you feel the Norrix love and support! As you know we are just minutes away! The baby years go by in a flash! So good that you are documented these precious days. Tell Elias I will change another diaper ANY time!
XXXOOO
Congrats!!!!!!!!! I am so happy for you both. Your pictures are beautiful! Elias is a lucky baby to have wonderful parents like you!
Maybe the cutest baby ever! And your pedicure looks pretty sweet, too! May God bless your dear little boy.
Congratulations Heidi! He is a beautiful little boy. Thanks for sharing your pictures.
We truly are “fearfully and wonderfully made!” What a joy to see pictures of your son. My kids are now grown and have kids of their own (which is a great joy that still awaits you!) Anyway, savour every day, every hour, every minute, and even every breath of your children as they grow. Cause suddenly they grow up and are too soon gone from home.
Congratulations to you two! Such great pictures. I look forward to seeing more pictures of Elias as he is bound to be the most photographed child in history 🙂
Congratulations! What a lucky little boy….his Mommy and Daddy love him so much!
As a mom, I have to say, that is a beautiful newborn.
Grampa Bob Wolfe looks pretty happy. And Laura…. don’t get any ideas, Honey… at least yet.
Absolutely beautiful!!!
Look at that little guy!!!
Amazing pics as usual, Brian!
This little guy is going to have his whole life documented in 8 billion photos…
So precious!!! So many good shots! Love that little man already. And his awesome parents too 🙂
He is so cute!! I am so happy for you both!
