Introducing Colton (Cole) Curtis Moran

We are thrilled to announce the arrival of Colton (Cole) Curtis Moran, who was born at 3:38 a.m. on January 27. He weighed a whopping 9 lbs 10 oz. (say what?!) and was 21" long.

After a 13 hour labor with Jackson (which included nearly three hours of pushing), we were amazed to welcome Cole just three hours after my first contraction, which included my water breaking upon walking into the hospital, me wanting to start pushing on the floor in the hallway on the way to be checked in, and only 20 mins of pushing. Very dramatic to say the least.  After experiencing an epidural with Jackson, I was lookong forward to one again but there was no time.  For the record, I highly recommend one.

But, dramatic delivery aside, we loved being able to meet Cole so quickly and start to find out all about this little person who has been rolling around in my tummy for months.

The three of us were excited to be discharged yesterday morning to get home and see big bro again (thanks to his grandparents, he was able to stop by the hospital a few times, including a visit mere hours after Cole's arrival).

I'll share more as we get settled into being a family of four, but in the meantime, feel free to check out Corey's daily photoblog for Cole here.
