Here I am!!  While I am glad to be in Mommy’s arms, I do miss the safety of Mommy’s tummy.  When I was in Mommy’s tummy, I could be with her 24-7.  There were earlier pictures of me entering the world, but Mommy and Daddy didn’t think those would be appropriate to post here….  I’m sure in 20 plus years, when I’m telling Mom and Dad that I’m having a baby with my future wife, Mommy will whip those pictures out and talk about my HUGE head and how it was in the 99th percentile for circumference.  Think watermelon through a straw.

I was born after 25 hours of unmedicated labor on August 28, 2014 at 5:33 AM.  Mommy and I had to work very hard to get me out.  Daddy was very helpful to Mommy and was there through every minute.  Check out all the hair on my head!  Maybe it will be red like my Daddy’s!  Mommy had prepared a speech to say to me, but after all those hours, the only thing she could say was, “My Baby?  My Baby!”  Mommy and Daddy both cried when I was born.
