Baby is Here!

My son is born! Hudson Lothar Russell was born on 16 September, 2008 at approximately 01:45 AM. He arrived by Cesarean, and is a healthy, hairy boy. He weighs 8 pounds and 4.5 ounces, and is 20 inches long. He has brown hair with some blond highlights.

He is AMAZING. I love him so much.

Mom is doing well, recovering from her surgery. We didn't want to have a c-section, but little Hudson was in the breach position. The doctor tried to get him to move, but it didn't work and we just had to get him out.

But now we're just so glad that he's here! He's a little bundle of joy in our lives. I love to hold him; he just makes me grin from ear to ear. It's hard to believe that Darlene and I were capable of making such a wonderful thing happen. Of course, we didn't do it alone and we're grateful to our Heavenly Father for bringing us such an incredible miracle.

Here are some pics:
