Live from Renown

Finally found the free wifi around here...

Well, here we are, a family of four! For those who didn't get the memo, Morgan brought forth into the world our bouncing baby boy, Sidney Elliott Tiar, at 7:30am, 7/24/07. He weighed in at 7lbs, 8oz, and measured 19 inches even. After a scheduled 10pm visit last night, they sent us home after doing nothing, then at 3am, I was awoken by a woman in labor. She actually wanted to blog the early stages of labor here, but it came on too strong, too fast. The contractions were merciless and it was just like in the movies, grabbing the bag, scuttling out to the car (after Gigi came to stay with Lola and the dogs), and racing through the dark to the hospital. Dramatic, eh? After a quick checkin, some more painful contractions, epidural, and a few good pushes, out he came. Today has been in and out of the hospital, lots of phone calls, well wishes, and trying to shake off the exhaustion and get our heads back on straight, all while trying to gently introduce Lola to the world of big sisterhood. It's been a long day for us all. With that, may I present to you, our first photos of our son Sidney.

Oh yeah, and we got keys to the new house yesterday. Now we've just got to move...
