Here are a couple of short snippets of Owen's first few minutes of life. Remember the sound of his screaming the next time you wake up at 2 a.m. It will bond you with us because it's likely what we are hearing at that exact moment.
And here is the big moment where we learned Owen's size. I have really never understood the importance of weight with birth, but it's like the big piece of info that everyone wants to know. So you spend the first day or two of you life getting you weight broadcasted, then try to divert anyone knowing that information for the rest of your life. Sometimes I feel like I am telling a story about a fish I caught "That's right, 8 pounds 2 ounces, and 21 inches long to boot. With a profile like that I would be crazy to throw him back."

Congratulations, you three! I am so happy for you and thrilled that everything went well. I have to admit my eyes teared up looking at the pics of your delivery, Jen, blood and all. It seems like yesterday I was in your place with my Michael, and now my Michael is two! I will be thinking of you the next few weeks as you all recover...but mostly, Jen. Congratulations again!!
Lisa & Karter (and the fam!)

Congratulations! He is beautiful!
