Porter Shayne Sorenson

On Tuesday, December 4th at 6:00 PM we headed to the hospital so that Chalise could be induced.  Once we finally got a room they started the process and we were kind of just sitting around being bored until about 2:00 AM when the contractions really started picking up and Chalise was in pain.  Once they gave her an epidural a few minutes later she was sleeping like a baby as if nothing was even happening.  Little did we know she actually was progressing and at about 7:00 AM or so she was ready to go.  The actual delivery part went pretty smoothly and Chalise did an amazing job - I was proud of her.  At 9:05 AM, Porter Shayne Sorenson was born and weighed in at 8 lb. 6.2 oz. and was 21 inches long.  Since most of you haven't seen him yet I figured I would post as many pictures as I could. 

Waiting for the excitement.

His first bath.  Chalise ate a bunch of cheese right before we went in and some of it got all over him in the womb.

We were lucky to have Chalise's mom and grandparents here with us to see the birth.   They were a huge help and we loved having them.
