Introducing Gavin Patrick












Gavin's birthday finally arrived, with a bit of intervention. We went to the hospital on 7:30 PM on Monday 4/2/07. Kristin was given some medication to help move things along overnight. The next morning the doctor broke her water and administered pitocin to induce labor. Gavin was born at 4:12 PM on 4/3/07. He weighed in at a whopping 9 pounds and measured 21" long.

We are completely overjoyed that he is finally here. Words can't describe the emotions and happiness we feel.

Here are a few pics of our little man. More are sure to come...

Kristin, you look like you borrowed a baby to pose for pictures before the ordeal even happened...you look GREAAAAT! Hani, you look like the quintessential "Proud Papa", happily bonding with your new son. The photographer (Daddy?) managed to snap a shot of Gavin in that special alert, awake, and all-knowing time period shortly after birth. He really looks connected or tuned in, in that last picture. What an exciting time for you all. He'll morph into his sleepy days now, but that's what the two of you need, too, so it works out well for everyone. Hopefully Kodi received Gavin well...they'll be good buds for sure.
