He is a healthy, beautiful baby boy

As for the folks, Mom is doing great. After many hours of pretty intense labor, the doctor informed us that not much movement was occurring and the best bet would be a C-section. Dawn wanted what was best for the baby, and agreed to the procedure. She is recovering beautifully, and was released from the hospital a day early. She's a fabulous mom.

Dad is also fine, I'm still in awe of what Dawn went through. First, 9 months of carrying the ever growing person inside her, then spending 20 hours of enormous stress trying to release him to the world. What a lady. As for being a dad, I couldn't have imagined how I would feel when the nurse handed me my little son in the delivery room. All I can say is, that it felt very natural, and I was the proudest person alive at that moment.

Now for the pictures: I put them in chronological order from 17 days after conception to the present
