It's a boy!

We named him George Thomas.

Born at 6:55 am at the birth center, not the hospital - hooray!

7 lbs 5 oz and 20 inches long.   Three of my kids were 8 lbs, 2 were over 8 lbs, Fritz was 7 lbs 5 oz, I think all were 20" long.  This child is definitely NOT 42 weeks.

Just got home, and will be lying down for more sleep soon.

Pictures, details to follow.  He's a cutie.
