Introducing Matthew V. Peterson...

Happy Birthday to Matthew Valno Peterson! Matthew was born on June 8th at 8:16 am at Mckay Dee Hospital in Ogden, UT. He came in at 20 inches and 7 lbs and 11 oz. Everything went really well with the surgery and Amber is making a really speedy recovery. We are so excited that he is finally here, 9 months is a long time to make everybody wait....

After his hair dried, I couldn't help but notice how red it looked. I thought for sure, he was going to be our first ginger headed child, but then over the ensuing week and a half, it's gotten darker, although you can still see red highlights in it...


He didn't enjoy his first sponge bath very much....

But then he settled down once he got warm under the heat lamp...

We were really blessed with a great surgery with no complications tp either Amber or the baby. Amber was able to see him within 15 minutes after the surgery, as opposed to our experience with Sienna, who had trouble breathing when she came out and it took nearly four hours before Amber could hold her...

I really like this picture of him...
