He has arrived!!!







Madden Thomas Hebdon was born on 11/20/08! He weighed 7 lbs. 14 oz. and he was 20 in. long. During labor we figured out why I was a week late and not progressing. After 20 hours of labor I had regressed and he still had not dropped. We opted for a C-section because he was starting to struggle. And we discovered that the cord was short and wrapped around his neck twice. So, thank heavens we made that choice and he was stubborn about dropping. He is safe, healthy, and adorable!!
It is amazing how life changes in wonderful and difficult ways with a new baby. We are running on very little sleep right now, but he is so much fun!
These are some of our favorite pictures.

Oh how cute, how seriously cute! Get used to not sleeping for a while . Don't worry, things should be back to normal in like a year :)

Oh my heck he is soooo dang cute. Wow it's so weird you guys have a baby now too, that is so cool. Welcome to the club of tired mothers. Is he an hour sleeper or a 3 hour sleeper or is he one of those angel sleepers that are rare and everyone hates you because you actually get to function normally during the day. Congrats you guys!!

He is soooooo sweet! Isn't it the most amazing thing to be a parent! Congrats to both of you. Enjoy snuggles now, because once he's mobile they become fewer and further between! Will you email me your address? I'd love to send a christmas card! bkwaldron@gmail.com

Matt & Meg, your little Madden is absolutely perfect. I am so excited for your guys!! I'm sure things are crazy with a new baby and the holidays--but I hope you know we're thinkin' of you! When I saw my sister over Thanksgiving I sent a gift with her that she is supposed to drop off at your house. I hope you get it soon!!!
