Gabriel has arrived! 2
Evan was more prompt about posting our happy news to his blog than I have been, but for time’s sake (having a new baby is demanding!), I will copy what he wrote into a blog post here. Our son is beautiful – and we are in love with him. It’s amazing how exhilarating and exhausting the role of a new parent can be.
Gabriel Evan Dodds was born Saturday the 14th at 5:47am – 31 hours after he let us know he was on his way and 3 days ahead of his due date (good thing too; we were getting impatient to meet him)! Everybody is doing just fine.
Gabriel Stats:
- 8lb 10oz
- 20.5”
- Full head of red hair like his mommy!
- He passed right over Friday the 13th and decided to be a Bastille Day baby instead.
