Mr. Fashion 2008

Now for a few pictures displaying James' new found fashion sense.

These first two photos portray James as a "burrito."

Open-eyed Burrito James


Close-Eyed Burrito James


On Friday, Natasha took James on his first post-hospital excursion...back to the hospital! And boy was he stylin' in his sweet cardigan.


As you can see, the beanie adds an additional flare that has a melting effect on the heart.


Just chillin'.

James' First Bed

James really enjoyed his plastic tub at the hospital.

He really liked the walls...



And preferred the bottom half to the top half.

Full Body Shots

If the head shots didn't convince you of his supreme cuteness, then these full body shots surely will.

Head Shots

You must admit, he is pretty much the cutest baby you've ever seen.



Check out those man hands! He'll be palming an official size basketball by week 4!

First Bath

Here is James preparing for his first bath in the hospital.


In this picture, it appears that he has come to terms with the idea of "a bath."


Ahhhh...fresh and clean. Here he is on the warming table. The little shiny thing on his stomach is monitoring his spleen...NOT.


James observes his new environment and assesses the possibilities.

The Moment We've All Been Waiting For...

That's right friends and family...after a slightly (but fashionably) late arrival, James has finally joined Jordan and Natasha outside the womb to complete the Cullimore Trifecta!

James Jordan Cullimore came into the world on Monday, March 24, 2008 at 4:59 pm. His stats include a weight of 8 lbs. 11 oz. and a length of 21 in. Impressive...yet modest. Well executed James.

Now for the pictures. This is James on the check-the-vitals-and-the-breathing-and-put-the-ointment-in-the
-eyes-to-make-sure-he-is-healthy-and-happy table. (Personally I feel they need to shorten the name of the table a bit, but I'm not a doctor, so I have no authority.)


I applaud your modesty James.


At last, after a relatively long, yet well handled labor Natasha is comfortable and the Cullimore family is three!
