This is my 3rd post ever.

My two other historic posts have been to announce George's arrival and tactics, and the other to poke fun of Kate. This one is a tad bit different.

I suppose it all started off on Tuesday Evening as Katie and I decided that we would go on our last "single" date together anticipating the due date creeping up on Christmas. We got home to Kate's parents place in Park City around 8 and by 9 we were on the way to the hospital after Kate's water broke. After 20 hours of labor, it became apparent that the baby was having a hard time dropping. We became increasingly worried about infection and complication. After much thought and prayer, we made our first gut feeling and decided that we needed to get the baby out with surgery. This went against what we wanted, but it felt right.

At 6:22pm, Kellen Chad Iroz was born at 7lbs 15oz. His cord was wrapped around him several times. This was keeping him from dropping down, and would have caused a dangerous situation had we forced the issue. We are thrilled to have an extremely healthy young lad, and a recovering mother that is making really good progress. We are scheduled to leave this place on Christmas at 6pm!! Merry Christmas to us.

On to the pictures..

Poor guy has monkey toes like Grandpa Clark used to tell me!! Kate has learned to love them though. She calls them "ganglies"... Sorry for passing those Ganglies on son.
