Introducing Baby Owen!

Our precious baby Owen made his surprise entrance yesterday! He must have heard me begging him to come out the night before - we went to sleep for a few hours and then my water broke at 4:00a.m. We got to the hospital, got Pitocin, got an epidural (yay!!) and before I knew it, we started pushing. I guess it's true what they say about second babies just slipping out because I started pushing at 12:51p.m. and Owen was born just 16 minutes later. He is absolutely adorable (looks a lot like his big bro Joey) and so far the only issue we've had with him is keeping him awake long enough for feedings! Enjoy some pictures of our cutie below. Click here to see more (and we promise to keep posting more pics over the next few days).

First of all, the fact that you've already blogged KILLS me. Secondly, CONGRATULATIONS! I can't wait to sing my dorky little doh-dee-do song to Owen and see if it works on him too!

Yeah!!! I was just thinking about you today. I'm so glad things went well. Will give you a call soon - but first, a chance to rest up a bit.
Hugs and kisses to the whole family!

Awww. What a sweetie. 16 minutes--that's awesome! And nobody should have hair that looks that good in the labor & delivery room. You're so annoying. :)
