HE'S HERE!!

...Henry Adam meets the world

God is good.

Henry Adam Byrd was delivered by c-section this morning. Five pounds, 3.5 ounces. He started crying as soon as he was out. He's breathing on his own and has already had a bottle. Alyssa was awake during delivery so she got to experience his first cry, sweet sounds of relief.

So far, no breathing tubes, but he'll still be in the NICU for a time. Alyssa is in good spirts; Ian is bouncing off the walls. I can't stop grinning.

Appropriately, the first phone call and picture went to Henry's big brother, Liam.

Did I mention I can't stop grinning?

Blessings,
Ken a/k/a Granddaddy Byrd
