Welcome New Baby

Welcome Ryan James Penrod!!! Born July 1, 2010 9 lbs 11oz, 22.5 in. He is such a sweet baby and very laid back. Big sister Caroline is thrilled and already so sweet to him. We are now at home settling in and enjoying our new family!!
Having a baby in Korea is an interesting experience!! After living in a hotel for almost 3 weeks waiting to go into labor, I finally had to be induced at 40 wks and 5 days. Thanks to Gigi and G-dad Penrod for helping with Caroline before, during and after the birth! We couldn't have done it without them!!!

At 39 weeks, who knew there was an almost 10 pounder in there!!!



The Army Hospital in Seoul where I had Ryan

Holding him for the first time, he's finally here!!

He is NOT happy when he's undressed

Caroline seeing her baby brother (that we've talked so much about) for the first time!! Priceless

Proud daddy

First family picture
(it was early the next morning, hence the glasses and no shower yet)

He makes the cutest faces!
Holding my baby boy, he may have been a big one but he still felt small to me

Going home!! FINALLY! After being away for 3 weeks!
