After 9 months (and 9 days past our due date), our long-awaited baby has finally arrived! We are thrilled to introduce our beautiful son, Liam Edward, born on Sunday, February 22, 2009, at 8 pounds, 4 ounces, and 21 1/2 inches. Although he kept us on our toes a few times during labor and delivery, we are happy to say that he is healthy and doing great! He has a head full of dark hair and the sweetest little cry we have ever heard. He is named after Anthony's late father William and my father Edward, and speaking of whom, Nana and Grandpa G were Liam's first visitors-- anxiously waiting in the hospital for the news from one proud Papa! Uncle "Stork" Tim and fiance Jackie were next in the afternoon. We couldn't wait to show him off!
We'll be in the hospital until sometime tomorrow and then head home to try out this whole parenting thing without the wonderful team of doctors and nurses we have been so blessed with! Uncle Tim, Nana, and GG are visiting for the first half of the week and then Grandma R will come for the weekend. More news and photos to follow, but until then, here are a few from the first two days.
This was taken right after delivery, with his neonatologist and one proud papa!

And with Dad...
And his Nana and Grandpa!
