Announcing our son Josiah February 25, 2009

Filed under: Uncategorized — Scott @ 5:34 am

Our son was born at 2:19am February 25th! He’s 9 pounds and 21 inches (big baby!).

Caryn did awesome, amazing. She gave birth fully natural, without pain relief. Labor was quick – she labored at home most of the day, and we went over to our birth center around 10:30pm. Four hours of active labor and behold, a son! The midwives who helped us were all wonderful and we highly recommend The Birth Place as a wonderful place to give birth.

His name is Josiah Randolph — I’ve been working on a post about his name and will put that up separately.

For now, we’re tired and going to try to get some sleep. Will post pictures when we can.
