thanks, everyone!

i honestly thought to myself after i saw him for the first time that i was supposed to say that he was going to be called gorlock the destroyer, but i was strapped to a table, couldn't feel my legs and i think the surgeon was tugging on my internal organs to get them back into the right position.

yup.

c-section. after 14 hours of labor and actually getting to the point where i was allowed to push, my labor regressed and we had to make the tough decision to take him c-section. we ended up making the right one as my doctor and my midwife both told me after the surgery that he wasn't coming out the natural way.

he's gorgeous. of course i'm biased, but he is. he looks like brian, but i think he has my eyes. he was 7 pounds, 12 ounces and was 20.5" long.

i'm fine. it's amazing that i had major surgery a week ago and i feel as good as i do. i have to remind myself to take it easy, though.

that's all for now. the babe is asleep so i'm going to try to do the same.

thanks again, everyone :D i'll post pictures of him soon.
