It's a boy - I'm an auntie!

At long last he's here!

My sister gave birth by C-section today to a healthy, very strong baby boy. Here are the stats:

Weight 8 lbs 4 oz
length 21”
time 1:03pm November 24th
name: Carter Robert (after Troy’s grand father that passed away) Julius (after my dad that passed in 1997) Koyich
10 fingers and 10 toes
lots of light brown/sandy blonde hair
dark blue eyes
good grip, already grabs your finger

He was too stubborn to come out on his own, so they had to give him a little assistance. Mom is doing great but is tired, dad is still in shock. He asked us to pinch him several times in the first few hours. Is still a bit surreal for them.

Copious amounts of photos were taken, I can assure you. I think I scared the nurses with my camera gear. Once Mom and Dad have seen them we will be posting them.

Was the family surprised you remembered to bring the camera stuff?

Hey, who posted that? Please sign your name so I know who you are. :-)

No they were pleased. Troy asked what was in the knapsack, and when I said camera gear he said "you rock sis!"
