Welcome Brody!!

Our little miracle boy is here after countless trips to the hospital and numberous attempts to start my labor. He was born via C section on Thursday, February 12, 2009 at 7:45pm at Lakeland Hospital in Niles, Michigan. The Big Guy upstairs was looking out for him since the umbilical cord was wrapped around his little neck FIVE times. He weighed 7 pounds and 10 ounces and was 21 inches. His chest was 13 and his head was 13 1/2 inches and is just perfect.

Here are some more pixs of his birth, some are pretty graphic (or gory) so look at your own risk.
