Wesley is here!

Official Announcement:

Wesley Philip Wardrick is born.

It all went down on a thursday night, after a of cleaning and eating pesto pasta for dinner Kirstin started having intense contractions.
This wasn't too abnormal as we (she) had been having contractions for several days not so severe but still painful. at about 9pm they started to get really frequent, so we made some calls to the birthcenter, the midwives and the birth assistant and gave them the heads up that something may happen tonight....about 90min later I(david) was down stairs packing up stuff (this gets gross if you're squimish. skip to photo's below) into the car just as a precaution and :::whush!spash::: I here her "bags o water" pop and then explode into the toilet.

Wesley has the best timing in the world, the water breaks over the toilet, he comes out right before a weekend, he avoids the holiday rush, and on and on....

Now we are in hyperspeed motion in the next 30min we are in the car, I forget my wallet, I may have done 60 in a 35 zone, I might have run 2 very slow, very deserted red lights in Alexandria, I forgot my wallet and the babies but remembered everything else food, clothes, Mom etc....

The birth was really quick a few minutes of labor on a bed, maybe an hour in a tub and then a quick few hours on the bed and pop comes Wesley.
