IT'S A BOY! Renee is a big sister :)
Cameron Paul was born on November 13, 2008 @ 5:50PM. He weighed in at 7lbs 12oz and is 20 inches long. We are all doing very well and Renee's first visit with her new brother went off without incident, her saying Baby and slapping him on the head and then going promptly back to playing with her bribes.
Not only did his mama guess 11/13 in the ExpectNet game but both he and Renee were born on full moons. I should have known. I managed to pull off the VBAC, a thought that I am still shaking my head about. I can't quite believe it happened the way it did. It is nice to not be drugged up and in pain and to be going home already tomorrow!!
A picture of our little dude. Not the best picture but a picture nonetheless. I'll post more if I ever have a spare hand again!
Congratulations!! He is adorable! And way to go on the VBAC. Was it everything you dreamed of, and more? :)

Wow! Congrats! They have the internets in your room? I would have had to go to McDonald's get any sort of connection.

Congratulations! We got the e-mail from your MIL this morning, but I was following along yesterday. Renee and Cameron's great uncle was excited to hear that the boy ratio went up again :) I'll show him the photo as soon as he gets home! (He never thought "other" babies were cute...until his niece and nephews started having kids!)
Great news on the VBAC! I was thinking of you all day. Was it all you thought it would be?
