Baby Dirk is here!

We added to our little family on July 31 and now are 4. DIRK WAYNE EXCELL was born at 7:45 P.M. coming into the world at 7' 13 and over 19 inches long. He is already following after his big brother. His imbilical cord was wrapped around his neck twice and had to come out through a c-section, the odds are extremely slim that it happens once to a women and baby let alone twice in a row. My doctor had never seen it before. He is here and healthy as a horse, that is what we care about. I will be in Utah for two more weeks healing and when I return I will post pictures (don't have what I need here of course). Ben got to be to the birth which was a HUGE blessing but now we are missing him and are excited to return to be with him.
