It's a BOY!

Our as-yet-to-be-named son was born
Thursday, Aug 12 at 3:38 PM
after nearly 12 hours of hard back labor.
8 lbs 4 oz of cuddly cuteness
totally worth it.

  8. Back labor is hard. Hard back labor is even harder. Excellent job mama! He looks sweet and thoughtful and wide awake! He picked a great day! I hope you sleep blissfully and comfortably the next couple of days.

  15. Yeah for you guys!!! We are anxious for the name (though how does this work with the blog?) and details. So happy he and you are healthy and happy! My brother now has 3 boys and expecting their 4th, they hope they can throw at least one girl in the mix like you guys! After 2 boys, I'm sure you don't "need" anything but wish we could send something special along! Congratulations! Wish we lived closer! If you're ever in New Orleans, let us know!

  16. I am so happy for you and so in love with his sweet face! It makes me emotional to think of all that you have sacrificed to bring such an amazing soul to your family. I get butterflies inside me thinking that I have that waiting for me in 5 months. I wish I lived closer so I could come bring you dinner, clean your house, and hold him. Good job my friend.
