Graham Austin was born today at 9:19pm - he weighed 9lbs 3oz and was 21 inches long. He came into the world less than three hours after we arrived at the hospital - wow! We had an amazing natural & unmedicated birth (that Mom is in no hurry to repeat!)
Here is Mom checking out the readings from the wireless fetal monitor and contraction monitor... I'm all wet because I wore the monitors in the shower, which was pretty neat - the bands are soaked! Best part was I wasn't required to get an IV so I was free to move about... that's the way to go, let me tell you.
This is where the magic happens... I paced around the room for most of the labor, and was on the bed only for the last 1/2 hour - the "fun" part!
There he is! Mommy is happy it is over!
Daddy cut the cord
Screaming baby and happy Mom and Dad
Yes... he really weighed 9lbs 3oz! Ouch!
