Introducing Adam 2.0

So, two weeks ago we had a baby... well, not we... Megan did. My part is long been done. On August 28, Adam Moylen Young came into the world a quiet pink and blue 6 lb 13 oz definite boy. He was quiet because he had some respiratory problems where his alveoli wouldn't adequately open quick enough so they kept him in close watch at the nursery. About 3 hours later, after giving him a bath, he pinked up, breathed better, and was ready to come back to mommy. Megan went about 6 hours after labor induction without the epidural (she thought she could go natural... bad idea). She progressed really slow until after she got the epidural and the doc came and broke her water. Then things moved real fast and she actually only had about 5 minutes of real actual pushing out the baby stuff. Recovery was much better this time around, despite the fact that Megan didn't sleep for nearly 48 hours straight (those dang nurses have GOT to be quieter at night). We were very grateful to family members for helping out with Audrey, especially my sister, Heather, who spent both days and nights babysitting Audrey at home while I stayed with Megan at the hospital. Audrey adores her aunt Heather, so it was a good matchup. In any case, Mommy and baby are doing great, Audrey seems to be adjusting okay, and I am now a little less lazy. I'll post some pics now, since that's what you really opened the blog up for, not this whole great spiel I just put you through.

He is definitely a boy. And definitely one of ours.

Megan looks pretty good for just having had a baby.

This is aunt Heather, our lifesaver.

Audrey. She's cute.

Dad and Son.

This is my cousin, Adam Twede (hence the Adam 2.0 subject line), my life-long best friend to this day. I always knew I would name my first son after him and my cousin is the kind of person that you would be glad to name your child after. I had to convince Megan, though, and did so by agreeing that if we name this one Adam, then I was to let her name the rest of the kids anything she wants. Too bad she doesn't want any more kids anymore.

Adam standing up... kinda... not really...

And finally the siblings unite... almost.

There you have it.
