On April 15th at 11:01pm, we welcomed a new addition to our family. Charles Dennis tipped the scales at 7 lbs. 9 oz. and 20 inches long. We are truly blessed and excited for all of the new experiences parenthood will bring. As you can see from the pictures, Charlie has a full head of hair. Most people point out that he has more hair than his dad, which is true.
We checked into the hospital at about 8pm on the 14th, and Amy started on meds to induce pregnancy shortly thereafter. Labor was a long process for Amy, but she did great. In fact, she gave me the best birthday present ever with 59 minutes to spare.
Thanks for Dennis and Marlene for bringing in a birthday cake and dinner while Amy was recovering. Never thought that I would celebrate my birthday in a maternity ward, quite the experience.
After two days in the hospital, we took Charlie home on the 17th. When we arrived at the hospital on the 14th, it was about 70 degrees, we drove home on the the 17th in a snowstorm. Gotta love Colorado in the spring!
