It's a BOY!

At 4:44 AM, William Robert Tyson made his way into this world! After just 7 hours of labor and about 5 minutes of pushing, our 9 lb 11 oz, 21-inch little monkey arrived! He just couldn't wait on his scheduled induction time and decided to make a break for it. William Robert is named after both of his grandpas, and we'll call him Will after our little buddy from Oklahoma.

Mommy is doing great, and is VERY excited to get to sleep on her belly again! Here are a few pics; we'll post more later.

HIP HIP HOORAY! We are so happy for you. I would have to look back but I think that little Will matches Addison birth exactly. I know he does in weight. How crazy. Anywho...we are so excited for you and can't wait to meet him.

Yeah! So glad Will is here! What would you have named him had he been a girl? (Just curious!)

Elise @A Path Made Straight said...

Oh! He's gorgeous` way to go, Kelly! [I think he came from my family, with that weight! What a nice, healthy surprise!]

Five minutes of pushing? You're amazing! Enjoy these first days... you won't be sleeping on your tummy too long if you're nursing... ;)

Jessica said...

Oh my... he is not TEENY TINY! I'm so happy you didn't have to be induced, that just makes it that much harder! What perfect timing your little man chose! He is so cute - and he's gonna have great hair, just like his big sis!

I see Sophie?

Rachel said...

This is such exciting news! Congratulations! We are so happy for you. And a little boy. Love the name Will. It's just perfect for your family. (And your buddy Will A. will always be little to me too.)
How crazy is it that our little families have girls first then boys. Our kids will love playing together one day. Before Isaac and Sophie marry, of course.
Oh, and congratulations on joining me in the big baby club for birth weight. Aren't you so proud?
