***Updated w/pic***
We have a son.
Baby M. entered our world on Tuesday at 9:58 a.m. weighing 8 lbs, 2 oz. I'm eager to share more details, but right now I am exhausted and having a tough time finding words. Let me just say that life as a new mom is more challenging and more wonderful than I ever could have imagined.
He is doing great.
I feel like the luckiest person in the world.
And right now, I can scarcely remember life before this boy.
Thank you, everyone, for your well wishes. Thank you for helping me get through to this moment.
I'll check in again soon. Love to each of you--
