He came out with a bunch of dark (and what we thought was curly) hair. He weighed in at 6 pounds, 12 ounces and measured 19 inches.
Sara finally got to meet our son when she got into the recovery room. He seemed so content and promptly fell asleep.
I got to hold him while they did some tests on Sara and while they got our room ready.
When we got to the room, he finally got his first cleaning. They also washed out his curly hair. He has straight hair about an inch long.
We had decided to wait and see what he looked like and what his personality was like before we chose his name. With all the commotion throughout the day, we didn't get a chance alone to discuss it until later that evening. Plus, he had been sleeping throughout most of the day.
We finally decided his name would be Austin James Riley.
Its been a day and half and we still love it. And we love Austin. I can't even express the joy we feel to have him here at last. He is such a cutie. He rarely cries except when his diaper gets changed and when he isn't swaddled up tight. It doesn't matter how tight I wrap him, he always manages to get his hands loose. He likes having them up around his face (just like in his ultrasounds). When he's awake he is either eating (which he is a pro at) or just very content to look around his new surroundings.
