Kyle and I are so excited to announce our baby boy has arrived! He is a sweet baby and has a very gentle demeanor (so far). It is so hard to tell whose traits he has yet, but he definately has the Woods' frown face. He has a good amount of dark hair and big hands and feet. Is that baseball we see in his future??

The labor went much better than I imagined. It started with gentle aches and contractions at work on Monday and then after dinner, they grew stronger. By 1:00 a.m. we were at the hospital and 4 cm along. By 2:30 a.m. we were 8 cm along. Then I got the epidural and the labor stalled a bit, but boy was it a relief! We were released from the hospital at 1:00 p.m. today and feeling very comfortable and content at home.

Thanks for all the well wishes and stay tuned for more photos and baby news!
