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...
