Life's adventures

There's nothing quite like cuddling up next to your spouse in the morning after your alarm clock has gone off, the last few peaceful moments before you roll out of bed and head out to the office. And there's nothing quite like doing that only to feel something that your brain doesn't fully register and have your wife turn to you and say “Honey, my water just broke.”

Chase Roderick Millar was born just over 3 hours after the above happened to us this morning. We were at the hospital for a whopping 52 minutes before he rolled out. The midwife who delivered for Sabrina gave me brief instructions on what to do in case we didn't make it to the hospital when the next one is born.

He's 19 inches long and weighed in at 7lbs 14 ounces.

Here are a few pictures. These are from right after he was born. I'll post some more tonight after I get home from the hospital.
