Joseph Charles Borchard is Born!


Our little "Charlie" (Joseph Charles Borchard) was born on July 5th in Pasadena at 3:26pm.  He weighed in at 8lbs 4.1 oz and measured 21 and 3/4 inches long.  He has BOATS for feet and long, "spidey" fingers.  He's healthy as can be...and boy, does he have a set of lungs.  For the most part, though, he's calm as can be...what a sweet baby.  He was super easy on me and came into this world after only 2 contractions worth of pushing.  I also got an epidural before I ever felt any pain...SO the way to go!  What a fantastic, enjoyable, romantic day it was for me and Joe!  Ellie loves her Baby Charlie; she can even say his name already.  She's not super happy with me, however, and she's been acting up a bit lately.  I think she's decided that 20 months is the perfect mark for her to enter her "terrible twos."
