The Birth

He's finally here!


Parker was born on November 1, 2011 at 9:05pm

8 lbs. 13 oz., 21 1/2 inches


The story of Parker's birth will come later. For now, here's some pictures from the hospital...



Waiting for his arrival


Cheers to having a baby!

Yes, I had an epidural - otherwise I would not be smiling!


Parker is born!!!!

He was posterior (face-up) and had the umbilical cord wrapped twice around his neck - not my easiest baby to push out!






Our big boy!



Look at those long skinny feet and toes, his hands are the same











This was my first time to hold him





Proud papa!


A very happy mommy :)





He's so strong! Already pushing up and raising his head


Telling family the good news


Another boy who looks just like his daddy





All the above pics are courtesy of Karin, my wonderful sister-in-law who was able to be there for the delivery and take pictures for us. Thank you Karin - you're the BEST!!!!


Getting startled by the camera flash





Welcome to our family, Parker



More pics to come!

Parker is such a sweet heart! I'm so glad I get to see and hold him instead of getting this news from 1200 miles away! Anna you look beautiful! Way to go on another healthy baby boy. I can't wait to see him again!
