The Kid Formerly Known as Squid

Jude Allen Nelis is finally here! After 43 hours of labor, he made his grand entrance May 17th at 1:31 pm. He weighed in at 6 lbs 4 oz and measured 19 1/2 inches long. He's a carbon copy of his Daddy and is an absolute doll!

I'm a bit tired now from the trip, so I'll keep it short and just post a couple of pictures. I'll have plenty more up in the next few days and a birth story as well. For now, enjoy oogling our sweet baby Jude!

My first time all wrapped up and ready to go! I was asleep before Mommy even finished tying it!
