We had a baby!

Posted on August 20, 2006 by jenh

DH here, posting for Jen, whose still in the hospital.
We had the baby yesterday at 4:30pm. She wants to tell all the details herself, but here are the stats: He was 9lbs 9oz (!) and 21.5 inches long. He seems to indeed be a champion sucker, so thank goodness for that! Mom and baby are happy and baby has the “10 and 10 and 1” that we were hoping for.
More later when she’s home. That might be Tuesday or Wednesday.
