Meet Ryan Charles Bobb
This morning at 10:43 am, Carolyn and I welcomed our first child into the world. The whole process happened so quickly and Carolyn was amazing. She hardly broke a sweat, and only cursed my name a few times. I was so proud.
Though six days before our official due date, today is the day Carolyn picked in our baby pool. I think this thing was rigged. She had some inside information or something.
The specs:
Name: Ryan Charles Bobb
Gender: Male (duh). We didn't find out ahead of time, but by the end of the pregnancy we were both expecting a girl to pop out.
Weight: 6 lbs, 6 oz., a little peanut.
Length: 19.5 inches.
Hair: Lots.
Meet Ryan...
About 1 minute old
Finally a little leg room
Mom holds her son for the first time
Love that new car smell
Cleaned up and ready to nap
Another great grandson for Grandpa
The aforementioned lots of hair. Also the easiest prediction about this child. Vegas took this one off the board months ago.
Most of Ryan's first day was spent napping or quietly looking around. Very little crying, which we are hoping is a sign of things to come. Of course now that I've just jinxed us, we probably won't sleep for 5 years.
Our handsome boy
The very happy and equally tired parents...

oh my, Baby Bobb (Ryan) has arrived and he is a keeper! What a cutie. Congratulations to the new mom and dad. Note from Adrian, "he does have a lot of hair".
Rest while you can, the fun is only starting to begin. Hoping to hold Ryan soon.

He is a keeper just like his parents. I am so happy for the two of you. I hope that I get to spend a lot of time with him.
"Uncle" Shawn says, "Congratulations! That boy Ryan has a good life ahead of him and couldn't be luckier to have you two as parents. But when he gets to his teen years I'll have a chat with Talky Steve and remind him what it was like. All the best and thanks for screwing with the baby pool. I'm out $50.
Check out that hair - wow! :) Congratulations and welcome to the world of parenthood! :)
I guess you're not just Uncle Stephen anymore...you're Papa Stephen now!!!
You and Carolyn are good at that baby making thing. Teagan can't wait to meet Ryan :o)
