Baby Arrives!

After nine months of waiting, Kanyon arrived at 4:30 AM on Tuesday, November 20, 2007 weighing 8 lbs 1.2 oz and 20 ¾ inches long.

We went into the hospital at 8 pm on Monday night and it didn’t take long before the baby decided he was ready to come out. Both baby and mother are doing great! We spent the next two nights in the hospital before we came home on Thanksgiving. What a great Thanksgiving Day!

It was awesome (and unexpected) that we got to take him home in the snow. It was really snowing big flakes as we drove home and carried him up the stairs to our apartment. The snow makes for some great photos. After finally bringing all the stuff in from the car, we were able to settle down and make a Thanksgiving feast, including all the staples. We are now learning all the new tricks about feeding, sleeping, and so many others.
