Christopher Thomas

We got a phone call at slightly after 7am this morning. It was the hospital calling. They called to say, even though no one called, we were suppose to be in for a 8am surgery delivery.....so....some quick showers, phone calls to her family to let them know the timing has changed and a fast drop off at our friends house we drove down to the hospital.

The delivery went well, extremely well. Christopher was born in about twenty minutes from the time they cut mommy open to plopping him on the examine table....screaming for the whole world to here. This one is a pisser. He knows what he wants and can scream loud enough to make his wishes understood. When they wheeled mommy in from recovery, the nurse came in and said "normally we dont ask after three hours, but this one is not only cute, but completely stubborn, so would you like to try nursing?" Mommy was well enough to try. A bit stubborn, but he's finally getting the hang of it tonight as I type.

Mommy is fine. A bit of reaction to some of the meds early on, but MUCH better now tonight as I type. Heck as of 10pm, the nurses are going to take her out and let or help her bath.....Mommy's a tough one. I left the nurses instructions that if she tries to much, duct tape her to the bed so she doesnt pull out her staples....He's been tagged with an ankle braclet, and mommy and daddy have one with a matching code. So no one can have mix ups....and if you try and leave the ward....alarms go off.

Christopher was born 6 pounds, 14 ounces, 20 inches long and the pinkest baby you will ever see. He is the EXACT same weight as sarah was, and only 1 inch shorter....

Without further ado.....
