Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy!

After a relatively short period of active labor and about an hour in the delivery room, we were happy to welcome a new baby boy into the world this morning!

I'll post pictures after I get home tonight, but in the meantime, here are the specs:

Name: Carsten John
Birthdate & time: October 7, 2010, 6:08 a.m.
Weight: 7 lbs. 2 oz.
Height: 20 inches

Mama, baby, and the rest of the family are doing great! It was heartwarming to see Elisabeth give baby Carsten a big hug this morning.

Congratulations! It sounds like you're all doing well, and I hope that keeps up. Second deliveries go a lot faster than first deliveries, don't they? :)

We are excited to see Carsten, hug everyone, and hear the whole story, but I know we will have to wait for a while. Rest, enjoy, breath!
