The only thing that should last 22 hours is a flight around the world

Well everyone, Hayden finally decided to join us last night, December 17 at 4:16pm PST. To be honest it was kind of scary how close Aunt Gin was. We decided that she needs to buy a lottery ticket very soon.

He came in tipping the scales at a whopping 6 pounds 12 ounces and is 20 inches long. He has Grandpa Jack's hands and Amanda's feet. He can grab your finger with his toes which is kind of gross, but intriguing at the same time. They are almost as big as his fingers which are kind of like sausages and if he was a puppy you would think he is going to be HUGE when he grows up.

Other than the normal soreness Amanda is doing great and is in good spirits. I was so proud of her yesterday, 22 hours of labor would be hard on anyone and she did perfect. We will add more pictures when we get some more time, but I just wanted to get some posted so everyone could see him.
