A due date come and gone. The end of vacation.
Jan 19

Today the latest addition to our family, Bryce, was born at 11:38AM via emergency cesarean section. Apparently Bryce not only turned himself upside down in the last few days, but his cord was wrapped around his neck… twice. Dr. B. gave 2 options:

  1. Have her get up in there and try to turn him around and unwrap the cord (a painful and not 100% guaranteed proposition), or
  2. Emergency cesarean section.

Weighing all of the pro’s and con’s of each, we decided upon the C-section. From there, the doctor took over like a General on a battlefield, and it was quite impressive. The one downside is that unfortunately the anesthetic didn’t quite kick in 100%, so Kimberly felt it. But all is well now.

Bryce weighted in at 9lb 2 oz and is as healthy as can be. Welcome to the world, Bryce! Here’s a few pix for the folks at home who haven’t met him yet.
