ryan timothy has arrived!

well, the wait is finally over! on july 7th ryan timothy was born. however, it took a little bit of work to convince him that it was time to come out. after being a week overdue, there were no signs that he would be born anytime soon. so much to my hesitation we chose to head into the hospital for a scheduled inducement. it's very different walking into the hospital to have a baby without any contractions or labor pains. they slowly got things started on monday night and by 11:13 on tuesday morning he was born. for the most part everything went really well. once it was time to push he was out after only 3 contrations. so glad considering he was 9lbs 6ozs!

we have been home for a week now and he has been such a wonderful little baby so far. lauren adores him and i always find her checking on him when he's sleeping in his bassinet. joel and i feel so incredibly blessed by the amazing family God has given us. and we greatly appreciate all the prayers and well wishes from all our friends and family. thank you!
