On Wednesday I called out the universe. I told it we were ready, and it responded. We had the little guy yesterday (4/19) at 4:48 pm. He came out at 8 pounds 9 ounces and was 20 inches long.

It was a pretty crazy experience and very intense, especially at the end. But, honestly, I thought it was going to be much worse. Sara did great and I'm very proud of her.

My role was pretty much like the sprinter in a bike race. I did nothing the whole time and then finished it off by cutting the umbilical cord, the most important part.

So, life changed.

Still on baby watch here. Depending on who and when you ask the due date could have been Sunday, yesterday, or it could be Friday. Turns out birthing is further from an exact science than I thought.

Here we're ready to move on and get this party started. People keep telling us our lives will change. Okay, we get it, but let's make it happen. I'll admit we were a little behind in getting ready and having all the stuff. But since Sara's Mom came down, she's helped us out and we're ready. Well, as ready as you can be.

The wife, her mom and sister are visiting Folsom Prison today. Since Bones gave birth after visiting a prison, today could be the day.
