This was going to be posted during the past week as a fun way to celebrate our baby’s upcoming arrival… but our little guy came early! I wanted to do a post about Andrew’s and my entrances into the world and share some baby photos. 🙂 Since Gerrit has already arrived, I can now include a photo of him for all of you to decide who he looks like.

Neither one of our moms labored for very long… in fact, my mom had me an hour and 45 minutes after she woke up and realized she was in labor! Both Andrew & I were our moms’ first labors & deliveries as well. My labor ended up being longer, but more about that in the birth story. Now for some more baby pictures!
