March 9, 2007

Mom was a little nervous...Dad was as cool as a cucumber.
Dad was really nervous, too!






















Mom delivered Collin naturally (what a trooper!) with the help of an epidural. Dad was thrilled to hear his son's first cries. Collin was wrapped up tight and cleaned up a bit to meet his mom. (He looks so serious!)
That Pitt kid has nothing on me!
Don't worry, Mom, I'll be ok!
Mom and Dad got a few minutes with Collin before he went in for surgery. The tubes help him breathe and keep him monitored.

Say a little prayer

The last two pictures in this set just take my breath away. The expression in mom's face as she looks at her baby boy is heartbreaking. Yet the hand that comforts her shows such compassion, love and hope. It's what everyone needs to get through this difficult period of Collin's brand new life. Sending you lots of all three.
