He's here! Our baby boy arrived Sunday, April 26 at 3:52 p.m.
I went into active labor at 1:30 a.m. Sunday. It was an intense day but the short story is after 14 hours I wasn't dilated past an 8, his head wasn't fitting, I was having painful back labor and the doctor decided on a C-section.
We had the best surgeon on the island with a very competent team of people to get the job done. I was disappointed I couldn't deliver naturally, but the surgery went fine and Liam and I are both healthy.

W-O-W. I can hardly believe I'm looking at a picture of my Jules holding her baby boy. Everyone says this, but dead seriously - he is SOOOO BEAUTIFUL. I mean he's remarkably handsome and so big already. I wish I could hold him. I wish I had a more elaborate vocabulary to describe how elated I am for you guys. I want more pictures. MORE MORE MORE!!! When can we Skype? I wanna see him in live action. XOXO

Congratulations!! That is so exciting he is finally here! He is so darn cute! I am glad everything went ok.
Hey guys. Congratulations! You must be elated and exhausted about now. You were missed by many at OS. Ended up right behind H on friday evening and saw the rest of the gang throughout the week. Any plans to visit austin in the near future?
Love- Megan and Greg
