Friday, December 10th began like most other days in the past 37 weeks and 5 days...with a glass of chocolate milk and the checking of email; however it ended quite differently. I had been having some minor issues with a slightly elevated blood pressure for a week or two and my doctor decided to go ahead and induce me that day. Needless to say we were a bit excited and a bit anxious. My induction began at about 3pm that afternoon.
Mr. Leo Hewitt Cassady came into this world on Saturday, December 11th at 10:34am ... 12/11/10 ... what a cool date! He weighed in at 7 pounds and 1 ounce and was 21 1/4 inches long. He has such a sweet face and the cutest head of brown "old man" hair ever! Scott and I are so thrilled and feel so lucky to be the ones chosen to raise this precious boy!
