Owen McAdams Grant

He's here! His birthday was Friday, September 11, 2009 at 12:29 pm. He weighed 6 lbs. 15 oz. and was 20" long. He has a ton of hair and is so stinking cute! We love him like crazy!

Long story short, I ended up getting a c-section. Which I was totally fine with. I wanted my natural birth, but nothing was going the way I wanted anyway, so c-section was the way to go. There was meconium in the water and my abdominal muscles were adhered to my previous c-section scar. This is why I was having so much abdominal pain and why the contractions were killers! Even at a 3 1/2! But my baby is here safe and that is the most important thing! Here are a few pictures of the happy day!
