Welcome Isaac

Isaac Henry was born around 9:15 pm on Monday. He shares a birthday with his cousin Lila. We got to the hospital a bit after 4. The doctor who was on-call wanted to be sure that Patty was really in labor before admitting her, so we did laps around the maternity floor for an hour. That helped things along and we were assigned a room around 6. The labor went pretty quickly after that.  Everyone is doing well.

We're going to spend another night at the hospital because both Patty and Isaac have to get some more antibiotics.  We hope to be home by Wednesday afternoon.
