Birth Announcement and pictures

So one more indulgent post….
FINALLY!  Our little boy decided to arrive in this world 3 days late!  He was born April 6th, 2011.  Labor was O’ Natural and had some minor complications, but it turned out well with a couple miraculous turns – both literally and figuratively.  I was assissted by a FANTASTIC doula, an AMAZING husband, a great midwife and nurse.

Brayden Michael was 8 lbs 1 oz, 21 inches long.

The same photographer SharaleaPhotography who did my maternity shoot also did my newborn shots – and I am drooling just looking at them.  They had me leave the room so he could settle down and not smell “mom” and then they were able to take these AMAZING shots!

    Your son is beautiful! And he was born a day after my daughter. And she’s the reason I’m at your site…starting the tupler technique today! And I’ll order a splint. Your website is very helpful.
