Introducing Caden Jacob!






Caden Jacob is here! He arrived on Wednesday February 7 at 10:14am. Weighing in at 7 lbs, 1.9 ounces and 21 inches long. He is our little bundle of joy. We think he even has red hair (it could change, but looks red right now). He has blue eyes.

Labor was intense, but relatively quick (9 hours). Once the water broke, the contractions were intense, but the epidural helped get me through that.

There was 3 rounds of 3 pushes each, the doctor had me push 1 more round, and out came Caden. According to Justin - "he shot out like a rocket!"

We will keep updating the photos, but this should give everyone something to look at for now.

Congratulations. Great to see so many cute pictures. Nine hours sounds really short... Looking forward to meeting Caden.

Congratulations Finnegan's! He's gorgeous. I'm thrilled for your addition and jealous of how fabulous Cha looks after labor! What's with that? :) Sending you good wishes from B'ham!
