Sawyer Lee Svendsen

Sawyer was born today at 1:01 pm at Torrance Memorial Hospital. 

He weighs 6 pound and 6 ounces and is 18.5 inches long. We're not sure who he looks like yet?

Nicole is recovering so well. This delivery/extraction was so much better than with Siena. Sawyer is so precious! He hasn't cried too much yet, except during his first bath. He appears to be in great health. At the time of writing this, I (Erik) am getting a late lunch, and Nicole is snuggling with Sawyer on her chest with her mom by her side. 

Thanks for your calls, e-mails, texts, thoughts and especially prayers. We can't wait for you to meet him!

Love,
Erik, Nicole, Siena and Sawyer

* For some reason, I can't get photos to upload here at the hospital, you'll probably just have to wait... sorry.
