So I got myself a nephew. Actually, Amy got me one. His name is Aaron, and I think his middle name is Thomas after his daddy. He was born last night at 9:48. At this point I don’t know how big he is, but I do know he has a cone head and cries. Just like his daddy. I’m sure I’ll talk about him more as I get to see him again and spend some time with him. I am anxious to have one of those baby naps. If you’ve never had one, listen to me. Find a baby and take a nap with it on your chest. Instant sleeping pill, best nap ever, probably for both of you. Maybe I’ll get one of those on Thursday. I’ll also take more pictures when he comes home. These were snapped maybe 30 minutes after he was born.

Last night around 11:40 my nephew was born. First grandchild in the family. It’s pretty exciting. Katie will probably tell everyone about it herself, but I’ll recount a little bit from my perspective.

I got to the hospital around 6pm, and she had been there for almost 12 hours by then. I hung around in the labor room til about 7:30, but that was when the nurses changed shifts. Apparently the nurse she had when I got there liked me before I even showed up, so she let me stay.

Dad came around 8, and the grandparents around 8:30. We waited and waited and waited. Mom kept showing up giving us random updates. Finally after 11 the nurse said it was time to go in and get him out. It was around 1:30 am before we got to see him. He’s cute, but I didn’t get a very good look.
