At the hospital

We were very excited to have a lot of our friends and family come visit Luke in the hospital when he was born.  We would like to think they were coming to visit us, but truth be told everyone just wanted to see Luke.  Miles called his parents, Hannah's parents, and his sister Jenny (who lives a 1/4 mile from the hospital) at 3:20am on March 6th to let them know that we were in the hospital.  At that point Hannah was already dilated 5cm.  Hannah's parents and sister were in the car a 1/2 hour later and on the road for the 5 hour journey south from Santa Rosa to San Luis Obispo, even though Doug had to coach his HS girls basketball team to a Division VI Title that night, which he did.  Miles' parents and brother were on the road a few hours later and arrived an hour after Luke was born.  Miles' sister Jenny arrived at the hospital around 6am (with coffee for Miles!) and patiently waited in the downstairs lobby for news of Luke.

Long story short, we would like to thank everyone who came to visit Luke (and us) and to welcome him into this world.
