Welcome Cardston Shaye!


Well, our little dude number two finally decided to join us! We are so excited to announce the birth of Cardston Shaye Stout. He was born this morning at 4:55 A.M.



They had Steph walk for two hours to help the labor progress before admitting her. You can see the enjoyment on her face. For the first 30 minutes, I provided moral support from a comfortable chair while watching the Jazz-Lakers game on my laptop. I started to feel a little guilty, plus due to the terrible play of the Jazz I started to have pseudo-contractions of my own, so I shut it down after the first quarter.


Cardston weighed in at 8 lbs. 2 oz. Slightly bigger than his older brother. Aside from the difference in weight, I could've sworn that Brampton's twin showed up two years late!


Steph did such a great job. I still am in awe by the whole process of how women bring children into this world. It just doesn't seem physically possible, but somehow, someway it just sorta happens. I just know that there is NO WAY I could ever do it.

P.S. This is my first (and most likely last) post to the family blog.
