Haefan Michael Gonzalez Skeehan

So, baby Haefan was born today at 5:51 pm and weighed in at 7 lbs 10 oz and measured 20.5 inches. Both he and Griselda are doing well and are expected home in about 24 hours. I have a few pictures to post along with the first video ever of baby Haefan.

Baby Haefan's first few seconds.....

A big yawn....

His first bath....

His post bath pictures...

He is definitely a keeper. He was born under 10 minutes once Griselda was completely dilated; however, the complete dilation part took about 12 hours to achieve. She was a trooper. Completely natural. What an amazing mom / woman.

President Gordon B. Hinckley Quote:

"Anyone who imagines that bliss is normal is going to waste a lot of time running around and shouting that he has been robbed. The fact of the matter is that most putts don't drop, most beef is tough, most children grow up to be just people, most successful marriages require a high degree of mutual toleration, most jobs are more often dull than otherwise. Life is like an old time rail journey...delays, sidetracks, smoke, dust, cinders and jolts, interspersed only occasionally by beautiful vistas and thrilling bursts of speed. The trick is to thank the Lord for letting you have the ride."
