Welcome Home Timothy Tyler!!


Kd 3 days before delivery -- as big as she got!


Timothy was born at 5:47pm on June 18, 2007. He weighed in at 6lbs. 13ozs. (That's our heaviest so far). He is 21" tall. Kd did a wonderful job delivering Timothy. She went to the birthing center at 12:00pm and was pushing by 5:30pm. She and Timothy are doing just great.


Ten minutes after delivery

First day home!

Starving baby!

The Umbilical cord was wrapped twice around his neck and once around his foot. However that didn't matter too much. The nurses said that it was the longest cord they had ever seen.

We called the kids to announce the birth of their brother. Eva asked "is he cute?" (are any newborns ever cute?) She was happy but reserved in her reaction. Thomas said, "is the baby here?" and when we responded yes he shouted "yaaaaa!!!.... can we come see him?" I think he was pretty excited.

Congratulations! We love you so much. I do wish I could have been there when you had the little runt. I Think I have only been present for Garrett and Cole when they were born. You know the kid is going to be a stud with a name like Timothy Tyler.

Thanks for posting pictures so we can see him. He definitely looks like he belongs in your family, very cute! Both baby and mom look wonderful. We are so happy for you.

Quick question? Are you calling him Timothy or Tim? Isaac asked.

Kd Perkins said...

Probably Timothy, but Tim is okay too.

You had better call him Tim. Timothy is too formal for a kid.
