He's Here!

This one is a quickie - I think I can get 5 minutes in before I have to nurse...

Dolton Craig Askins was born at 8:18 A.M. on Easter Sunday, April 8th, 2007. He weighed 6 pounds, 4.5 ounces, and was 17 and 1/4 inches long.

Dr. Robinette delivered him three weeks early because I developed pre-eclampsia last week - what all the tests and bed rests were supposed to avoid! But that's okay, Baby Dolton is perfect.

I will post pictures and a full account of the events tomorrow, right now my little Easter Egg is hungry!
