World population:12 billion and ONE

(I have no idea how many billions of people live on this planet, but I estimate somwehere in the 12 billion range.)

WELCOME TO THE WORLD, BABY PAYTON!!!
I just got the call and hour ago (at FIVE AM!) that you were born March 13th at 11pm (CA time) You are 21 inches long, you weigh 7 lbs 10 oz, and you have a full head of dark hair.
But most importantly, you have actually succeeded in pulling me out of bed BEFORE 6 am. (A feat rarely accomplished by anything , except possibly, a sudden attack of explosive diarrhea)
You already have so much love and devotion, all the way from across the country. You hold a giant spot in my heart and my soul (and Juan's too, who exclaimed this morning "I'm and uncle!!") You will be loved forever and ever, and EVER. I can't wait to see your darling face and snuggle you close to me and smell your baby smell. I promise to be your biggest fan when you roll over and when you go to first grade, and when you go to the prom (if you want to, that is. You don't HAVE to go to the prom if you don't want to).

And so begins the biggest adventure...life on the outside! You are only 4 hours old, and I wish you a lifetime of health and happiness and friends like your mom and your dad.

I love you, little one!!!
