At one minute after midnight on Monday, 20 August 2007, the Critter made his entrance into the world. He was 7 pounds, 12 ounces, and was 20 inches long. He’s perfect (actually, the pediatrician said he was “absolutely perfect”) and delights us to no end. He made his entrance by c-section, so my recovery is a bit different/longer than we anticipated, but we’re all doing very well. MUCH more to follow – I’m working on a big narrative that will take me a while.
Many more pictures (including Critter Papa in scrubs!) to follow.
Growing a Critter 
I’ve been wondering!!! What a beautiful picture! So glad that he is here and that all is well! Thinking about you as you recover and enjoy these first days with your new addition. Can’t wait to hear more!
I have seen the Critter. I can also vouch that he is perfect. I think that he is the cutest baby that currently lives in the lower 48!
Welcome Critter!
We still have not gotten to our narrative, and Abby is 11 weeks today! Kind of a lot happens when they are on the outside!
That comment is from rob, not Anny. Oops.
welcome to the world, l’il critter!
so glad he’s healthy – you look delighted. 🙂
DANG is that kid cute! Can’t wait to see more pictures! You look SO happy – what a beautiful momma!
Welcome, Critter! And congratulations Mamma and Poppa … the fun is just beginning. 🙂
Awww! Congrats!! 🙂
Welcome lil’ critter! So glad you could join us 🙂
CONGRATULATIONS! Mazel Tov! I hope everyone is adjusting well to life outside the womb. C-section babies are always perfect – their heads don’t get smooshed. I should know – I was one! 😉
