Exciting Day for Zachary Joseph Cowal!!

Yes! You officially have a name!  Zachary seems like such a big name for you right now.  I think I will just call you Z as Z man!  Then when you get a little bigger, maybe it will be Zach....Miles is in love with you and says the whole name but it comes out something like "Zacry",

I am very excited to say I was there the day you were born! We had just put Miles to bed and were at the table eating a huge burrito when mommy turns to me and goes "oh my gosh, I think my water broke!"  That just means that you were saying "hey let me out of here"!  Daddy was a business function so we called him right away.  Man, that guy got to us so fast!  In time at all daddy told mommy "it's time to go to the hospital". Now, normally your dad is "cool, collected and doesn't get frazzled" that easily.  But the night you were born he was so nervous and got all the way down stairs when he realized he didn't have mommy's phone with the doctor information.  He races back up, couldn't find it so I called it and we found it in a pant's pocket!  Off he races to get mommy in the taxi and get to the hospital.  I am staying behind to be with Miles.  I look down and daddy forgot mommy's hospital bag!  I just had to smile.  Everyone was just so excited you had decided to come out and say hello!

Mommy writes on her blog:

 "Hello, Baby!"
"Just dropping in really quickly to say that Zachary Joseph was born at 10:56pm on May 22 in an astoundingly fast birth. Like, seriously fast…2 hours and 45 minutes from start to finish. Weighing in at 7 lbs, 4 oz and measuring 20 inches long, he’s beautiful and we’re totally in love. Pictures to follow over the next few days once we get home and settled."

Here are some of your very first pictures in the hospital.   I mean, was there ever a cuter baby?!

 I could hardly wait for the next day so I could take Miles up to see you.  I think Miles fell in love with you immediately.  He didn't seem jealous of you at all.  Just wanted to be right there on the bed with you!  Mommy looks so happy here holding her two favorite boys....

By the time you read this, you might think Miles is bossy!  But just look at this picture when you are mad at him and you will know he loved you from the very beginning.

When I saw your daddy holding you that first day and the love that just covered his face, I knew that you were going to be a very lucky baby.  You will always know you came into this world so loved!

Your parents couldn't wait to bring you home!  You are so different from Miles.  For one thing, you have so much hair AND you are a little bigger.  You are so adorable with your chubby little cheeks!
