Baby Mike is here!!!

Baby Michael Gather Bartlett arrived in all his glory today at 1:09pm. He was 7 pounds 1 ounce and 19 1/2 inches long.  He started (what is know in the labor world as grunting) its where they are working to hard to breathe because they still amniotic fluid in their lungs. So they took him to NICU.  He will be there for 72 hours. He is being weened off oxygen now and as soon as they do that his parents will be able to hold him in the NICU.  Jean is doing great...a bit upset since she hadn't even gotten to see him yet. Hopefully, once she gets feeling back in her legs she'll be able to get down there late this evening to see him. I am posting from jean's computer and don't know how to download pictures here so as soon as I get home tomorrow I will post what pics I have. It's been a good day.
