Melissa delivered the baby on Thursday, August 21st, at 12:14 pm via cesarean. It seems Jack was fooling everyone by pretending his head was his bottom, so we thought he was head down. But, he was head up, so we had to go in there and get him out. I thought he didn't want to come out because he was a momma's boy and wanted to hang out some more. And since I thought his bottom was up, I would joke that he was mooning us. It turns out he was just saying "hi". The funny thing is Jack knew how to get out by pushing, but he was pushing up, rather than down.
So, out came Jack, at 8 lbs 4 oz, and 20 inches long! He's a mighty fine looking baby. He doesn't like to cry much, when he does, you know it. I'm here just to update our blog so all of our friends and family can see some photos.
So, without further ado, heeeeeeeeere's Jack!!!!

They put some ointment on his eyes to prevent blindness.

Proud parents.
