Baby Boy

                             
Elliot Noel Norton 
b:  8/29/2013, 2:55 am   w: 8 lbs. 3 oz.  h: 20 1/2"

Our little man is here!  He arrived right on his due date! We are still shocked that we have a baby boy.  
I had been uncomfortable all day on Wednesday and by the afternoon I started feeling peaks (contractions.) So around dinner time I started watching the clock and noticed they were about 10 minutes apart. By 10:00 at night I realized I would probably need to go to the hospital.  I was worried they'd send me home so I didn't want to drag Jerry with me and make his mom come all the way over that late at night.  Within half an hour I changed my mind again and asked Jerry to call his mom.  Long story short, Elliot made his arrival at 2:55 am. Jerry went and got the girls first thing in the morning to come meet their new brother and Gabe just beamed, reminding us that she was right.  We had a list of about 12-15 names and it wasn't until about 20 minutes before we left the hospital that we settled on Elliot.  Noel is his middle name and is Jerry's dad's name spelled backwards. Here are some of the first pics of our little man that we are absolutely in love with!
