Baby Mercedes

Here are pictures of baby Mercedes. Kaiann and the baby are doing great. Kaiann's water broke just as we were sitting down to watch her Colts play Monday night football. Unfortunately they lost while she was in labor. Mercedes was born at 2:00 A.M. weighing 7 lbs. and 20 inches long.


A fist full of good tasting hand and the only 5 minutes of open eyes since delivery.


That baby is cute but I personally think that beard is the best looking thing in the picture. Of course I am kidding but the beard is still sweet, well, not anymore because I had to shave it to appease my wife and now I'm in trouble for saying that.

She is going to kill me for this one.

Brand new, right out of the factory, still with new baby smell. The nurses were chastising me for not taking acceptable pictures at this point and was instructed on how to do it. They expect way to much from fathers now. I was pressured once again to cut the cord and a new one for me was the father giving the baby her first bath.
