Finally!
After 40 weeks of preparation and torture, I am proud to relay that we have a new member of our family.
Mr. Calvin Thomas Medwid! (We also accept Cal or C.T. for you Real World lovers)
He was born at about 10pm, weighing 7 pounds and 8 ounces and measuring 19 1/2 inches.
We pushed for two solid hours. Tracy gave it a Herculean (sp?, it's late) effort but little Calvin refused to come out so the doc went in and got him C-Section style.
Mommy is resting comfortably. She just had her first bonding session with Cal.
I haven't eaten in nearly 24 hours and there is a good chance I won't even make it back to my hospital bed, probably collasping in the hallway somewhere.
Pictures and a final word coming soon. :-)

Congratulations! I can't wait to see pictures.
Give Tracy and Cal a hug from me. Congratulations again.
AWESOME! And here I am 100% sure that you named him Calvin from Calvin and Hobbes...tell me that I'm right. Good for you, Derek - tell Tracy I said "good job".
Now comes the fun part. Can't wait to see your blog after changing your first poop.
Thanks for making me an uncle - never thought I'd see the day.
Welcome Baby Calvin and Congratulations Tracy & Derek! We can't wait to meet the little guy.
Lot's of hugs & kisses to all three of you.

YEAH! What a thrill! Congrats to the both of you! Mr. Calvin Thomas Medwid has the most amazing parents! Tracy, my best friend for almost 30 years now, you are going to be a truly wonderful mom! And to Derek, what a great father you will be! Thank you for bringing everyone in on this fantastic journey! You both shared with us your incredible tales of bringing Calvin into this world - and he is finally here. I can't wait to meet the little man!
