Hello, Baby Boy!
Introducing Axel William, the current Lightweight Champion of the World (crowned by his momma):
Born November 1, 2007, at 6:21 pm
Weighing in at 6 lbs, 6 ozs
Measuring 18.5 inches
Likes: Breaking the ladies’ hearts with his long blond eyelashes, single left dimple, and alabaster skin
Dislikes: Being ridiculed for his thick head of straight brown hair that looks a little like a mullet in the back, or for the thin downy baby gorilla hair on his back
Loves: Eating, sleeping, cuddling with his mom, being wrapped up like a burrito by his dad, out pooping the other newborns, and proving his superiority to all other 3-day-old babies by beating them in arm wrestling contests using the strength developed through long punching practices while in the womb
More about the labor- with few gory details, I promise - to come!
