Baby is here now too!


born: Feb 1st 10:44 am
weighing: 3.68 kgs (that's the way they do things around here- translation: 8.1 lbs, my biggest yet)
length: I think 46 cms (uhhh, 18-19 inches?  I'm too lazy to double check)

More painful labor, quicker delivery, recovery TBD.
Asher and Ivy seem excited.
I'm feeling a bit tired. 
Mom, John and friends over here are taking good care of us.  My Dad is coming too in a couple weeks!
The weather is taking good care of us too. It's sunny and beautiful.  Asher and Ivy were both born in cold wet weather (December in CA and April in MA-still beautiful, but a little more work to get out with the babies) 
I'll post pictures soon and share a little more when I'm up for it.  Thanks for all the well wishes and notes.

    Hooray! And the name Brady is so cute (and totally normal :)

    I am so glad he is here and you guys are doing well. Way to go birthing an 8 pounder! Get some rest and let John and your mom take good care of you.

    Wish we could be there to help out and bring you some chocolate chip cookies.

    Congratulations! I'm so glad he came soon after you mom arrived - how nice of him.

    Hope recovery goes well. I think the sunny weather will speed things up a bit (all my babies were born in the winter...less good for taking a walk soon after).

    Don't be surprised if we ever have a third boy if his name is Brady;-)
