I'm a daddy! Words can not tell you how emotional the last 24 hours have been. Joanne did so well and she had the best delivery I could have ever imagined. If you haven't heard the stats already, Jack Takayuki Hirotsu was born last night, January 22nd at 9:48pm. He was 6 lb 9 oz and 21 inches long and completely adorable. Yeah...I cried.
As noted in the last entry, we showed up at the hospital at 9:00 yesterday morning and with a little help from some fantastic drugs, she was ready to start delivering him by 9:00 last night. We had 13 friends and family cheering for us in the waiting room that night and have had tons more visitors between friends, family, and Joanne's many coworkers. Joanne is doing great now and we should be going home tomorrow some time. I could go on and on, but that's not why you are here. You wanna see some pictures. Well, here ya go.

Hey Joanne! I knew you were going to be a tough little mama! We are so glad you are feeling healthy and strong. Whatever you need, we're there for ya :)
Congrats!!! I have a feeling Jack's going to be the topic of a lot blog entries in the future. Maybe even more than Burger King Star War toys. Cute boy, good pictures.
