Ta-Da!
I’d like you all to meet Michael David. He was born at 3:02 PM today. He weighed 8 lbs., 10 oz. and was 20.5 inches long. He’s a hunk of a baby! And let me tell you how good this kid smells. I can’t keep my nose off of him. He has been so quiet, too! I’ve had to wake him up to feed him. He just sleeps and looks around and soaks it all up. My kind of boy!
Right now, I’m all doped up on pain pills but I’m feeling great and am doing good. I’ll post a real post tomorrow, but I thought I’d at least blast out some pictures to hold you all over. Check out that hair!

Oh and one more thing!! Beg someone to run to the bookstore for you and pick up “The Baby Book” by Dr.Sears and Sears!!! It is the manual that the hospital doesn’t send home with you 🙂 My son had a blocked tear duct, and I would have never known what it was if I hadn’t had the book! It has everything you need to know up till the age of 2 years!!!! I highly recommend this book!!!

Congratulations! He’s adorable. My son’s hair stuck up for months after he was born. We couldn’t keep it down. My husband called him “Roosty” (rooster) sometimes because of it.
Beth
Congratulations! He is adorable. Sniff all you want because some day he won’t smell that way.
Nancy
Oooh .. what a beautiful baby! And all that hair! And what a BIG baby! My boys were both born in summer and it was wonderful not to have to worry about cold weather with a newborn. I particularly like his name . . . Michael is my firstborn’s middle name and David is my second son’s first name. I’m fond of traditional names–no spelling explanations required.
Marla
Awww… Congratulations. He’s adorable.
