The New Arrival


It is 5 am and we have had little sleep (about two hours). Kristine gave birth to our son at about 1:45am this morning. Thomas Philip was 7 pounds 10 ounces. To the nurses surprise, Thomas' brilliant father correctly guessed his weight. He is healthy and beautiful (in a manly sort of way). Kristine's epidural is wearing off and is in a little pain but is otherwise doing very well. She is a natural already at being a mother. More pictures to come, after I get some sleep.

He's adorable! I can't believe I slept through the whole thing! I did wake up at 5:00 and texted Kevin. Couldn't sleep so finally checked this. Thank goodness! Kristine, call when you get some sleep. Love, Mom and Grandma J
