He is here!!!

Ryan Alexander Campbell has arrived. He entered into the world on February 6, 2010 at 10:43 a.m. weighing 8lbs 8.6oz and was 21.25 inches long. He is already such a joy! He was followed in birth by his new cousin, Naomi Rose Keene who arrived early via an emergency C-section about three hours later. She weighed 5lbs 6oz and I believe was about 19inches long. It was quite a crazy few days for our families but we are happy that everyone is now healthy and home. The cousins and aunts/uncles will all be getting to meet each other on Sunday afternoon. We can't wait to meet our new niece and can't believe she will be one week old before we've even gotten to see her in person. What would we do without phones and the Internet so we could at least see her before then. I plan to post my full birth story in the next week or two for several of you who have been asking or are curious. I will be sure to start with "Viewer Discretion Advised" so those of you who don't care to read it can skip right over that post. Thank you all for your love, support and prayers!

Love,
Emily & Mike

Emily, you look great! Ryan is such a cute baby! I'm so glad he's here. I can't believe Lauren had Naomi on the same day. That is crazy! I look forward to hearing about your birth story too. Congratulations!!

Enjoy every moment. I think God gives moms and dads a big high after the birth of a baby because looking back I don't know how I did so much on such little sleep and while remaining in a good and upbeat mood. I'm so happy he's here!
