Welcome baby Hunter!!!

Hunter Matthew was born 6-10-10 at 9:14pm weighing 7 pounds 5 ounces and nineteen & a half inches long. We went to the hospital at 7:30 am and spent the day incuding Allison with no success, we weren't sure what was going on until after a C-section revealed the cord holding up out of a position for delivery along with his head being turned to the side. A little before 9pm our mid wife called for a C-section to get him out which happened so quickly it was surreal. I didn't expect everything to happen so fast, one moment Ali was being sedated the next minute there's a baby laying on her legs. Besides marrying my beautiful wife seeing my son being born into the world has to be one of the greatest moments in my life. I felt bad because Ali was very drugged up and couldn't follow me as they cleaned the baby but both mom and the baby are happy and healthy. But I got plenty of video of him eating his hands and trying to make sense of his surroundings. We'll most likely be here in the hospital until Monday morning for some extra testing and recovery. So far so go though, Hunter is a pretty mellow child and is constantly hungry so he'll plump out I'm sure. Now that our family has grown I reckon this blog will have a lot more updates of our little boy! Thanks to everyone for the kind words and well wishes. We couldn't be happier right now.
