Introducing...

Mr. Rhett Kauffman Sides


December 1, 2016
12:11am
8 pounds + 1 ounce
20 1/2 inches long



He made his very quick entrance into this world late last Wednesday night (technically Thursday morning); in fact, he missed being a November baby by only 11 minutes and he arrived less than two hours after we stepped foot into the hospital!  (Spoiler alert: I still had time for the epidural....thank you, God...but barely!!!!)



We are both doing great (minus the mix-up between days and nights) and I am recovering nicely.

 

And as uncomfortable and ready for baby as I was, I feel like it all happened so perfectly. 


We arrived home from the hospital Saturday morning to two very proud big brothers.  (Though both are more excited about Gramma and Papa being here for a few days.)


Rhett's birth story, his nursery reveal, the story behind his name, and of course, tons more photos coming your way soon!


In the meantime, we'll be here settling in as a family of five and enjoying our most favorite Christmas gift ever.
