Gabriel is here!

So far so good. Gabriel is here and doing well. He weighed in at 8 lbs 10 oz. and measures 21 1/4". Twenty-five hours of labor wasn't so bad.... Mommy is recovering nicely, and Daddy is enjoying his new little buddy. We are so happy and only a little sleepy. (Of course, I am a little more tired than Daddy is because he has the ability to sleep through the screams.) Gabriel is sleeping well (for now). Unfortunately his most wakeful time is between the hours of 4:30 and 6:30 am.
My parents have been keeping the roads hot going back and forth from home to here to see their two newest grandchildren. Gabriel arived just five days before he had a new baby cousin, Ava.

Here are a few pictures of Gabe.

More to come...soon I hope.

I'm so excited for Mommy and Daddy. That little guy is a cutie. I wish I could be there to join in the fun. Hope to see you soon.

Yay!!! Congratulations! Sorry y'all have had a rough go of it the last couple of days, though. Glad my household could help a little :-)
