Introducing....

Please allow us to introduce you to the newest member of our family:

This is Connor Alan Dakin, born Wednesday February 15th at 10:13 pm. Our bundle of joy weighed in at 7 pounds 11 ounces and was 20 inches long.

After being in the hospital for 51 hours and only getting to 2 cm dialated (we arrived there Monday the 13th at 7 pm in order to be induced), the decision was made that Janet would have a c-section. This ended up being the best decision in the world as Connor was actually trying to come out with the side of his head first instead of the top. 7 minutes into the procedure, the sound of baby cries filled the OR and Matt was able to announce, "It's a boy!!!!" We are so happy to have our little man in our lives. Here are a few pictures from his first couple of hours.

He came into the world with his tongue hanging out of his mouth!


Love this shot!!!


Proud, sleep deprived Daddy!!!!
