Big Announcement.
Dale:
Heather gave birth to our second child and first son, Dale III, today at 1:00pm on the nose.
Our son was 8 lbs., 11 oz., and 20 inches long, technically making him a barrel. Labor was (from my perspective, FWIW) fairly brief, and there were no complications.
Mother and son are both doing well. I am at home with Maddie, who doesn't seem to realize that the "bay-bee" is coming home with us on Wednesday.
How the birth came about today, and the preparations for same, is the subject of several posts in itself. But that's for later.
The adrenaline has officially worn off.
Thanks be to God for my wife and children. Boy, does that last word have a nice ring to it...
