Baby pictures



Taken while still at the hospital.
We have more pictures...but I'll let April decide whether to post them or not.

Baby pictures


The new PC might take a while to get here, so I decided to put up a few pictures using the super-slow old computer.
Enjoy!

Baby boy

April went into labor sometime around 1:00 a.m. Monday morning and gave birth around 6:00 p.m. She took an epidural around 3:00 p.m. The long labor might have been due to the baby's position--he was turned the wrong direction until about 20 minutes before delivery, when the doctor turned him around and told April to start pushing.
Peter is 8 lbs. 5 oz., and just over 22 inches. He's good-natured, often awake, constantly hungry, and healthy. He nursed for a full 90 minutes just minutes after birth, and he would've nursed more if he could have.
