Tyler Aaron McKinney has arrived!

On the evening of July 30th at 7:54pm at Baylor Dallas, Tyler Aaron made his appearance into our world. He was:
8lbs 15oz
20 1/8 in Length
14 1/4 in Chest
13 3/8 in Head

Full head of hair along with very strong and vocal lungs. Heather did a wonderful job with labor. She labored for 21hrs and pushed for 2 hours. He stopped at station +3 and she ended up with a ceserean delivery. Mom had a tough recovery due to an allergic reaction to the Astromorph given for the operation. But she is now up on her feet slowly moving around and being a great mom to Tyler. They have bonded and are feeding well.
I'm truly impressed with my wife and the way she handled the pain and surgery. It was one of the most emotional experiences watching her deal with the pain and bring our son into the world. We have become closer and stronger as husband and wife. I felt like I couldn't do enough to help or meet her needs.
