The Wait is Over - Welcome Sorin

It's 11:47pm, and it is my honor to announce that Sorin Steven Schiefelbein was born today at 4:41pm. He was 6lbs. 9oz. and was 19 inches long. The day has been so long, yet at the same time seems to have gone quite fast - I don't want it to end. But mom is exhausted.

I honestly don't feel like it's sunk in yet - I'm a dad. Katie's a mom. We're a family of three. You should see him. I could hold him forever. Katie did so well. Family was here and met Sorin at 8:30 tonight. I could tell stories and details, but we need to sleep - we, meaning Katie. I could go for a few more hours, but rest a wise idea right now. We've got a long weekend of abbreviated sleep.

I'm proud to be a dad. I'm proud to be a husband. Welcome, Sorin.
