Here it is, the much-anticipated blog post with pictures of baby Tysen! I can only sit in this extremely uncomfortable chair for a few minutes, so I'll just mention the highlights:
- Time of labor: just over 2 hours
- Date of birth: October 13, 2009 at 11:38am
- Name: Tysen James Dodds
- Weight & length: 8 lbs 4 oz, 19.5 inches
- Hair color: Very dark brown. Eyes: Blue.
- Complications: NONE!! He came out crying with a good, strong set of lungs! He did have a knot in the umbilical chord but thankfully it didn't cause him any problems at all. He is absolutely perfect and we love him to pieces.
Brand-new baby:

Getting ready to come home from the hospital:

Aspen absolutely adores "her baby!" She is so sweet with him, and loves to hold him, sing to him, touch him, and anything else she can do. She's a good helper!

One day old, awake and alert:

We are so happy that he is finally here, healthy and strong! Thank you to everyone for all your prayers and well wishes. We're doing great and are so happy to have the baby home with us.
