Mark Henry was born Monday, September 19th at 4:41 AM. He weighed 6 lbs. 2.5 ozs. and measured 20 inches long. He's perfect in every way! Tad and I are having a lot of fun getting to know the little guy.
I will post the birth story later, but here are a few of my favorite pics of him so far:

He's tiny!
Perfect!

EDD has come and gone, but that's alright!
Saturday, 9-10-11, would have been a cool birthday for this kid, but the day is long gone. I knew I would be "late" so it wasn't too big of a deal for me. However, because I liked the date I decided to just see if a pre-natal massage from Amanda and eating Eggplant Parm. at Scalini's on Friday would help. Of course, it didn't.
Tad had to work on Saturday but I went ahead and make plans to celebrate other people's birthday since there was no birthing action with us. Jenny had Fisher's 2nd birthday party with family and she was sweet enough to invite me. Here's him with his amazing Nemo birthday cake:
I love hanging out with her and Jason's family. I got a kick out of the look on their faces when they casually asked when my due date was and I said "today". :)
Next up, I went to the Harper's to hang out for Wendy's birthday, which is the 11th. Here's the small group girls (minus Brooke because she was in Estonia for a mission trip):
I wanted to get a shot of my belly on my due date and Matt just happened to be standing there so I said we should compare bellies:
So that was how I spent my day. Oh, and watching football of course. Tad and I are so happy it's that season again. Only having the Braves to watch for a couple of months is tough. Here's the LSU gear we have for the baby so far (thanks Aunt Tammie and Mimi!):
Tad is determined for the baby to come home in LSU gear. I told him definitely if we bring the baby home on game day, but this week they played on Thursday (beating Mississippi State 19-6) so we'll see.
By the way, today I'm 41 weeks! Woo hoo!

the best baby quote I've heard so far...
No one else will ever know the strength of my love for you. After all, you're the only one who knows what my heart sounds like from the inside.
