That’s right. After a danger fraught 42 minutes of labor Zoe has brought a new life into the world (or to put it another way, angel child Alexandr Phelan O’Rourke is a big brother now). There is a huge glut of pics coming soon but for now just a few I snapped throughout the long sleep deprived day Zoe and I have had. Xander’s having a blast but still trying to figure out who this new person that is getting all of mommy’s attention is.

Major update with play by play coming soon but for now we leave you with these few paltry images taken of the two most adorable boys I know (taken with iPhone).

Congratulations! What a short labor after a long ordeal. He is just as adorable as Xander. I know you will enjoy both these boys for a lifetime to come! Blessings to the whole family.

Sincere congrats to you! Aren’t children the best? I would have 10 if I could! It has been decided for me that 4 is ideal!
Can’t wait for an update, but in the meantime, get some sleep!
