AR-CHER...



...as said by Talon, is here! He arrived Friday, Aug 28, 2009 at 9:38am. He weighed in a 9lbs 7oz (92nd percentile). He is 22 inches long (percentile off the charts). His head is 14 1/2 inches (99th percentile). It took 26 hours for my body to get ready for delivery but only 13 minutes of pushing to get him here. Here is a photo journey...

The family before Archer arrived....(taken on the 20th).

Zoey and Archer are nine weeks apart. Zoey is almost two pounds heavier and you can't tell but Archer is an inch longer than her.

And here he is in his new favorite place (besides mommy or daddy's arms). He was nice enough to share with cousin Zoey while she was here!
