Unto me a son is given, unto me a son is born.  So Henry Ellis Poole was born at 5:56 PM CST 9 lbs 4 oz 21.5 inches long.

Well that was sorta surreal it was the easiest birth in the history of birthings I think.  It was a planned C-Section.  Courtney had started having contractions but she couldn't feel them, they only detected them at her doctor's appointment and then rushed her to hospital.  I showed up and we just sat around chatting until it was time to have the operation.  By 5:35 PM or so we were ready to start and then at 5:56 PM there he was.  Hardly any pain for the wife.  The main thing she has had to deal with is soreness and stiffness.

And so they put him on the table to clean him off and I was there and...well it was odd experiencing one of the greatest moments of my life again in almost exactly the same way.  I felt like a moment had been reincarnated.  And exactly the same way I picked the baby up and introduced him to his mother for the first time on the outside.

Anyway after an exhausting weekend (damn I got to watch alot of Olympics...at one point I watched the entire Denmark-South Korea Handball game...WTF was that on?) I am back here at work.  Thanks for entertaining me in the waiting room...except Katmai that bastard.

Here is the picture and stuff but I am sure he will end up looking like BB's younger son:

I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

I detect that he might grow up to be a Wyoming Cowboys fan.  Congrats, Cannonade at Valmy.
