BABY OUT!

For about the last two weeks "BABY OUT!" has become the mantra around our house, hoping to convince him to come out on his own. Unfortunately his parents were not convincing enough, and he had to get a little encouragement from the medical community. After going into the hospital at 6:00 on Tuesday, Matthew James joined us on the outside at 4:24am on Thursday morning. I could not be more proud right now of Jamie and our little (well relatively little) guy.

Here's one of his first picture, a few minutes after he was born. Note the weight on that scale. That's right, 10lbs, 9.5oz. I guess Jamie should have thought through all that nutritious foods and ritualistic morning workouts.














A few minutes after he was born, he started posing for the camera. Here's the famous weight lifter pose.




















He likes sleeping on Mom after a good meal.















For the trip home we put him in his bear suit. I'm thinking he didn't care for it....
















The Staff at UW Medical Center were awesome and made the experience a great one.
