Hospital Upgrades and a New Baby!

There have been some hospital upgrades...

The first upgrade from when we had Garner in '08 - internet in our hospital room (awesome)!

The second upgrade from when we had Garner in '08 - they feed the patient and her spouse a steak meal on the last evening of your stay (also awesome)!

The third upgrade from when we had Garner in '08 - Kim went straight to a c-section and didn't have to go through the pain of fruitless labor.

The fourth upgrade from when we had Garner in '08 - we didn't have to wait a full 40 weeks; Riley was eager and popped out about three weeks early.

The fifth upgrade from when we had Garner in '08 - we have Netflix and we streamed movies and watched them in the hospital bed together - all three of us (it was a tight fit)!

The sixth upgrade - Kim and I feel like parents this time around and we've got a glimmer of what we should be doing.

The seventh upgrade - Riley hasn't cried ONCE since getting over the shock of the first hour in the world; Garner cried every hour we were here.

The eighth upgrade - I changed diapers in the hospital room without gagging or making dramatic noises.

There will be more upgrades to come, once we get home - maybe a series of "Home Upgrades" is in order, if Kim will let me break into her blog again.

But, here is what you really are interested in, a few pictures of our newest addition.
