He is here!







Our sweet little baby boy was born on Sept. 11th. He is 8lbs 3oz and 20 inches long. We have named him Daniel Bruce Hobbs. Months ago as we started to talk about names we realized we had named the other two boys bible names. We wanted to stay with that so we started to look at different bible names. Daniel was the only one we could both agree on. Bruce is after Doug's Dad. I started to have contractions Wed. morning. As the day went on they got harder and closer together. That night as they were still coming, I started to get excited, but really scared because I knew he was on his way. My last 2 deliveries had been anything but easy, so I was scared of how this one would go. Around 2 am they started to get pretty hard and strong. We started to slowly get things ready to go. We arrived at the hospital at 4 am and I was dilated to a 4. At 5:30 am they came in and gave me the epidural. By 6:15 I was fully dilated and ready to start pushing. I pushed until 7:47 am when he was born. It was a very fast and wonderful delivery. I don't think I could say that ever before. Jacob LOVES his little brother. He wants to kiss him and hold him all the time. Andrew isn't all that interested. He thinks he is cute, but doesn't really want to hold him. Doug is a happy man. Today he watched the BYU game holding Danny and Jacob with Andrew right there too. What more could a man want!
