Welcome Baby Quinlan James Paul Taggart



We want to introduce you to baby Quinlan. It is a Scottish Gaelic name meaning 'small blond warrior.' He was born at 7:58 on Tuesday morning weighing5 pounds 15 ounces. He measured 19 inches long with long fingers and toes.

SORRY it took so long to post but due to some minor complications we were held up at the hospital for 4 days. First, they wanted to check his blood sugar because he was a tad small and it came back low so we had to stay until that was corrected. After that a midwife noticed that he had as light yellowing of the face so they ran another blood test for jaundice. That held us up a couple more days but we are now home and made it happily through the first night. Dad took the early shift until 3:00 AM and mom took over so dad could get some sleep! We are grateful for our little miracle and so unbelievably happy that he is finally home.
