It's a boy! It's Jacob Davis Brister!


Suzanne and I welcomed our first child into the world just before midnight last night. I will spare the great length of detail, but she had an impromptu c-section last night about an hour after we arrived at the hospital. Baby Jacob is doing great.

Here are his vitals:
Born 7/20/08 at 11:24 pm
7 pounds 2 ounces
19 1/2 inches long
Brown hair
Blue eyes

And he is more adorable than I ever could've imagined. I will try to post pics ASAP, but we will likely remain in the hospital for at least a couple more days. Mother and son are resting and my mother-in-law was nice enough to let me break away to post this and get cleaned up for the first time in 20 hours!
And here are some more pics, with the promise of many more to come.
