We have a baby boy!!! Hayden Samuel was born today at 1:44 am at Lenoir Memorial Hospital in Kinston, NC about 40 min. from our house. He weighed 7 lbs 8.5 oz. and was 20.5" long. It's been interesting ride, we got to the hospital about 2:00 pm Sunday afternoon and things were progressing nicely up to midnight. When the doctor gave the go ahead to start pushing, the baby's heart rate started climbing, so after monitoring everything for about 1/2 hr the doc decided to go ahead and do a c-section to minimize risk to the baby and Denise. We were definitely not hoping for this route, but the baby and Denise are doing fine and I was able to be in the OR for the delivery.
We are so excited to be parents, when we heard Hayden cry for the first time, Denise and I both started crying. This little human, crying and making baby noises... wow! Here are a few pics for now, I'm sure there will be many more to follow.....
