Robin and i would like to introduce everyone to Miles Edward Kroening.
for those of you keeping stats at home, he was finally born at 12:57am on Thursday, May 22nd. he's 22" long and weighs a whopping 9lbs 8oz.
now for the rest of the details. after our last update at 10pm we had two doctors consult with each other and determined that Miles wasn't going to be making the traditional descent because his head was turned to the side, not facing downward as is necessary. they decided that a cesarian section birth was going to be the best method to finally bring him into the world. this meant that after Robin pushed like a champ for almost 2 1/2 hours (she got some rave reviews from the med staff) she was wheeled out and prepped for the procedure around midnight. two hours later the whole family was resting comfortably while Miles tried for his first meal.
we're planning on getting some rest until mid-morning today and then taking calls to see if visitors are up for introductions. we don't know what room we'll be moving to shortly but a call to my cell phone should get you the necessary info. enjoy these pictures below or come take some of your own.
EDIT 3:45PM: from video taken early this afternoon and here for everyone to see, the animated adventures of Miles:
