The wee-man is here! Chase Aaron Moulton was born on Friday October 19, 2008 at 12:28 pm. He was born 3 weeks early because he was so excited (and so was Lauren; 20 inches and 6 lbs, 12 Oz.
Lauren and I had gone to the hospital the night before, on thursday, after her water broke. We made it to the hospital in a hurry! We thought we would have a baby by early Friday morning. However, by 2:00 am, the contractions weren't doing much and we had to wait until morning when she would get induced. By noon Lauren was well into the labor action, and a hard fought half hour later, we had a new addition to our family.
He's a beautiful little guy with long fingers and toes and a good amount of hair. To be fair, his occasionaly scrunchy face has a strong resemblance to the character 'Vizzini' from the Princess Bride (inconceivable!). In addition to his cuteness, he has a calm disposition and doesn't really cry very much.
I have already enrolled him in Arsenal's Youth-Gunner Football Academy (soccer) in London, England; so we should be expecting big things when he turns 10 years old and can head off to North London. Ellie and Emma will of course be upset that I didn't follow their suggestion of contacting Ballet West first; but I think he'll thank me when he is grown up....yea...definitely.
We will update everything when we come home tomorrow (Sunday).
