We are PARENTS!!!

Well our little Brody Jay Waite is here! We can hardly believe that this little miracle is our to keep. He is absolutely perfect...but what new parents don't feel that way? We are completely exhausted, so this is just the gist of it, and when things stop feeling like a complete circus we will update everyone better.
Brody Jay Waite
9 pounds 1 ounce
21 and 1/2 inches
Labor was fairly quick...it began at 4 a.m. on Friday, August 15th and we had Brody here by 3:03 p.m. later that day. There was a little trouble because he was sunny side up and even slightly cock-eyed, otherwise it probably would have gone faster and been easier on me.
We wanted to be able to go home as soon as we could, so 24 hours after Brody was born we were cleared by the hospital and got to be home. It's crazy to think that this long big boy was in me, but he was! We kinda like him and think we'll keep him around.

Ya BABY!!! So I saw Trevor in WalMart on Saturday. He was doing some serious contemplating in the baby section. I wanted soooo badly to ask him if you had the baby, but decided not to disturb the man on a mission.

CONGRATULATIONS YOU TWO!!! He's beautiful!

Who would have ever thought that you could be carrying a 9 pound baby!! You need to have like a billion more kids, because you carry them so well.

I love the picture of Brody and Trevor. There is nothing like seeing a dad with his new baby! That is so special. And I also love the way Brody looks in the picture with you. He is super cute!!!
