Rob and Kris, Plus Nate






Nathaniel Robert

Born July 26, 2008

8:58am

7 lbs., 11 ounces
19 inches long

Birth story to follow shortly! I'm still in the process of documenting everything that happened from the blur of the last few days, being that I've gotten a cumulative 4-5 hours of sleep in that time frame.

I feel like the Grinch. My heart has grown at least 3 sizes since I laid eyes on him. I never knew I could love another human being so much.
