Anyway, CONGRATS to Mike and Kristina on the birth of their perfectly adorable little boy.
Here's what she sent out in a text:
Grady Quinn Larson entered the world at 4:04 this morning, July 18. He is 8lbs 6oz, 20 inches long, with a head circumference of 13.75. He has lots of brown hair, a little pug nose, and the sweetest personality. We are in love!
What more is there to say? We got the call early enough on Wed to head down before Nate left for work at 2pm. Grady was nursing at first (sounds like he's a pro so far!), and then kept his eyes open and was content. This lucky auntie got to hold him. Rhya and Brielle were fascinated. Rhya gently petted his hair while Brielle grabbed at his blankie. :-)
Mike and Kristina looked pleased as punch. :-) I don't think we could have wiped the grin off of Mike's face if we tried! Kristina was a little (or a lot!) tired from her long, hard labor (but she did awesome and was able to stick with her birthing preferences- it's just tough the first time around!!), but you couldn't tell by looking at her!
Here he is:
Checking out his surroundings. He kept sticking his tongue out in a sucking motion, even though he'd just ended a nursing session- hungry boy!
8 hours old- with proud Mommy and Daddy
Big cousin, little cousin
Check out the difference in size between Brielle and Grady- isn't it CRAZY what 3.5 months will do? No wonder he's hungry. :-)
Congrats to Mom and Pop! I notice Grady is trying hard to face the camera when posing with the folks. :)
