BABY OUT!




Posted By DADDY:

Quint and Russell had been saying, "Baby Out!" since they found out mommy had a baby in her belly. Today we were blessed to welcome our third son out of mommy and into the world. The day went like this:

630AM- call to make sure they have a bed for Christy-they said yes.
800AM- show up at our fancy birthing suite
900AM- start induction meds
200PM- get epidural
400PM- big increase on induction meds because wasn't progressing fast enough
605PM- Starrett Paul Richardson born. Weight 8lbs 3oz; Length 21.5 inches.

Christy was amazing. She said there was no pain thanks to the epidural. She and Rett bonded over his first meal and now they are both snoozing away. Here are some pics from this fabulous day.


Before we left, the boys said "baby out!"

Mom is "Rhett" to go!

Rhett arrives 6:05 pm
We are so jazzed!

I didn't know anyone could look so beautiful after labor

Fresh out of the oven

Christy, that first picture is SO you! ;) You also look amazing after laboring all day. You don't even look like you gave birth at all!

He is one handsome little man. :)
