Welcome to this crazy, crazy world Walker David Shepherd!

So much has happened in the Shepherd family and I can't believe it's taken me so long to update our blog.  Well, actually I can.  Having a newborn has been extremely challenging and time consuming.  And because of that, I might have a good 20 minutes to do this blog update :)

Walker graced us with his presence on January 14th, 2012 weighing in at a whopping 10 lbs, 3 oz.  Even the OB was shocked at how huge he was!  I went into the hospital at 1 am on 1/14 with contractions.  However, they sent me home bc I wasn't progressing as much as they'd like.  Well, the rest of that night was miserable and therefore, at about 10am, we returned to the hospital and much to our surprise, I had progressed.
I pushed for an hour but Walker wasn't budging.  So they wheeled me in for a C-section.  (Not a pleasant experience but I don't want to relive it :) )

Walker David Shepherd arrived into the world at 4:49pm.
Here is the first picture taken of him:

I could go crazy with posting pictures of him.  He's just too cute to turn the camera off.  But I'll spare you and only put up some of my favorites.

I would go into more details but the boy is waking up from his nap and lunch time calls :)
