What a day... Jenny woke up at 4:40 with contractions. Woke me up at 6:00 and suggested we start packing a bag and get ready to head to the hospital. Dropped Ava off at our wonderful neighbors at 7:30. Admitted to the hospital at 8:00. Dr. Stumpf broke Jenny's water at 10:00. Received epidural at 10:40. Decided on name at 2:00. Owen arrived at 2:33 8lb. 30z., 20 inches pink and screaming. All in all, it went super smooth. After Owen had his vitals checked and things settled down Jenny remarked to the nurse that getting the IV was the worst part. More to come...

Hurrah! He is a cute kid - check out all that hair! And Ava looks adorable as a big sister. I'm so glad you have great neighbors that were willing to help out so soon after you arrived.
Love you and miss you!
You look way too good in these pics.
