6 lbs 5 oz

11:45 am

The wait is finally over the Lori Harris boy ( this what our boy is currently being called) came into the world at 4:30 am this morning. He weighed 6 lbs 5 oz and was 17 inches long. He is currently in the NICU. He is breathing on his own but has a high respiratory rate. He looks real well and seems to be doing fine under the circumstances.
Lori made it through the C-section just fine and is anxious to get out of bed and go see the baby. We haven't decided on his name but I'm still holding out for, Nathan Ronald Harris Jr! Well update you as the day goes on. Thanks to all those who have given us help and support over the last few weeks.

Nate, if I would have known that was an option in the name voting, I would have voted for it. Is it too late for a write-in?

Congratulations!

Paul,

I read your comment out loud and looked at Lori -- not gonna happen.
