HE HAS ARRIVED

Drew Ryan Tanner is what we like to call him. He was born this morning the 19th of March 2010 at 7:51am, he weighs in at a modest 8lbs even, and is a very average 20" long. Paula began feeling contractions around 5am but none of them were terribly close together or consistent so we waited until 7am, when she actually started to have some bleeding, to head to the hospital. Once at the hospital and after all the routine questions and paperwork, it only took about 15-20 minutes of pushing, a total of 4 sets of pushes, to help him find his way into the world.
Here are some pictures and video clips to help introduce him to all yall that can't have the pleasure of meeting him for a while. So it is my pleasure to introduce you, Drew, world, World, Drew.

Zip-i-dee-drew-dah! LOL. I think it's creative. :) Sorry, that's the only thing I could come up with that wasn't yippee or hooray or something like that. Congrats! I think he looks more like Paul. I'll be the first to say it. Oops! Kelly said she said it already. Why does she always beat me to things like this?!:(
