Welcome to the world, Joseph Ryan Welch




















Joey has finally arrived! He was a few weeks early, but after 4 months of bed rest, he couldn't have come at a better time. On Saturday night Katie's water broke and after being in labor for 4 1/2 hours, my godson arrived at 2:23 a.m.

We went to see him yesterday and he is absolutely perfect. I love his gorgeous hair color (it's an ashy blonde) and he was so alert and was so cuddly. I didn't want to leave, but i had to go study.

So here are a few photos (I went to see him solo in the afternoon and then I brought the kids in last night). So glad that mom and baby are healthy & happy and that my little "dude" is finally here.

Welcome to the world, Joey. we love you.

Feeling fine! A little like a giant blueberry especially when I'm trying to move around in bed, but other than that, everything's fine.

And you have four and a half more months to wait, sista. Yes, I'm groaning over here too!!!!
