Just a quick post to let everyone know that Luke Timothy was born on May 19th at 3:27pm. He was 8 pounds 12 ounces and 22 inches long at birth. We got home from the hospital on Thursday afternoon and I don't want to jinx us, but things seem to be going pretty well for now. We are lucky because Jay's mum is here for another 3 weeks helping, so we have an extra set of hands to hold the baby while Jay and catch naps here and there. We are still sleep deprived, but it doesn't matter. The bliss of motherhood far overpowers the lack of sleep. Luke is an angel and we are so in love with him we could just stare at him for hours.
Luke had his first doctor's appointment on Friday and everything checked out fine. We are just so happy that our baby boy is finally here and healthy!
Here are some pics of the little man, who turned out to be not so little. Will try and post another update soon!

Look at you all -- so beautiful! Many, many congratulations! Spend as much time as you can holding him and gazing adoringly at all his tiny fingernails and smoothing his hair and all the other things your motherly and fatherly instincts tell you to do. This is such a precious time and you'll remember it all the rest of your life. Before you know it, he'll be all grown up and he won't let you hold him and gaze adoringly at any of his parts! :) Enjoy! Sleep when the baby sleeps! Trust me! I know these things! I'm experienced! Lots of love! Cyndi
I can't wait to come meet him!
