Thanks so much, Betty, for helping me post his photo. I was so tired last night that I couldn't follow the directions Karen posted.

We've waited 9 long months to announce Jude's birth. It was a harrowing day on Monday when Rachel went to the hospital. We waited hours and hours. The baby's heart rate was really faltering and the Dr. feared the chord was wrapped around the baby's neck. Therefore, an emergency C section was performed. The worst fears were realized - the chord was indeed wrapped around our dear grandson's neck. A great Dr. and hospital team acted and all went exceedingly well.

Alan and I appreciate all the kind words. He's a love and we are all elated. Rachel and the baby go home tomorrow.
