Christopher is here!

Finally after 14 hours of labor, Christopher Alfonso is here with us now. I was admitted to Cedars at 10 pm Monday night and Christopher was delivered Tuesday, June 19th at 2:46pm.

Christopher weighed 8lbs 8 ounces and is 21.5 inches long. He has light brown hair with shorter hair in the front and longer hair in the back. His eyes are dark blue, but will most likely change to brown. His face looked pretty swollen yesterday, but today he looks less swollen.

He is pretty calm and even tempered. He likes to be held, but is content lying in his bassinet looking around. He is very curious and turns his head around to the sound of our voices.

Here are some photos of Christopher, enjoy!

Yay, I'm so happy to see pictures of you and Alfonso and Christopher. He is such a handsome little guy! Did you see the lips on him??? I also like the picture where he's crying and you can see his little penis. Tee hee!

I wish I were there to smell the baby smell... *sigh*. But I will see you in a couple of months. Congratulations, you two!

Becky and Fonsi,

Congratulations! We all think Christopher is such a beautiful baby, and the both of you look wonderful, too! Becky, that first picture of you and Christopher should be in a baby book! We can't wait to see you!
