Welcoming Junior

A and I welcomed Junior 6 days after his due date.  I had to be induced because my water broke, and 6 hours of walking did nothing to ramp up the contractions.  He was born on October 4th at 9:13 am, about 17 hours after pitocin was started and 1.5 hours of pushing.  A and Grandma K were there to witness the birth.  He weighed in at 7 pounds 15 ounces and 21 inches in length. He has mommy's long fingers and a combination of mommy's long toes and daddy's fat ones.  Already at 1 day old he was lifting his head up off your shoulder to look around when you hold him.  Not sure who he takes after when it comes to his ear piercing screams... probably daddy.
