Happy Birthday Garrett

This morning after only sleeping about 2 hours we got up at 4:00am. I packed and we left for the hospital at 5:00am. We arrived at 5:30 and went through the preparations. The doctor came in around 7:00am, they took her back to the OR. They started the c-section at 7:56am and Garrett was born at 8:03am. He came out screaming and the doctor said his lungs sounded good.

They cleaned him and wrapped him up and I got to show him to Kelly then carry him out the the waiting room to show the family and friends while they stitched her up . Then I got to carry him over to the nursery and Kelly went to recovery. He weighs 7lbs. 11.5 oz, and is 20.25" long. After about an hour after recovery Kelly got to come downstairs and get a look at Garrett though the nursery window. She said, "he's so freakin' cute!" I have to agree, he's pretty perfect.

After what seemed like the longest wait ever, they were able to bring the little guy in the room so Kelly could hold him.
