Game Faces On!

Due to modern technology we are able to share a little bit of this very special day for our family. The baby has not come yet and Carrie is resting. We have taken some pictures of the room and Carrie and even a token Anthony picture. These entries today, this and maybe others, will not be as pithy or groundbreaking as usual, but are meant especially for loved ones who are not able to be with us in Springfield.

Carrie's time at the hosptial was 5:00 AM, so we got up today at 4. Neither of us slept particularly well. Childbirth anxiety is like my Nintendo christmas eve anxiety on Clemens-strength steroids, and that was for me, the less involved part of the Team John Baby.
Here is Carrie, bright and beautiful at 4:45 this morning. For those wondering this picture was not digitally enhanced in any way to make her look cuter. That is her in the flesh. Here is the beautiful momma. She is trying to rest now that she is hooked up to all the monitors and petosin. Here is the monitor keeping track of the baby's heartrate and Carrie's contractions. As promised the token picture of the uglier part of the family, dutifully doing my work as the only media member present for the birth of our boy.

We are going to try to have more information, picutres for you later. I make no promises. Keep us in your thoughts and prayers and check here periodically for updates if you are interested.
