On June 4th at 4:17a.m., after about 13 hours of labor (I am so proud of you Bethany!), Samuel Thomas Chapman was born. He was 20 inches long and weighed 6 lbs. 8 oz.
Samuel had a rough start. He didn't breathe right away, so they intubated him and rushed him to the neonatal intensive care unit. He only needed the intubator for about forty-five minutes, and he is doing great now. He spent a few days in the NICU, but doesn't seem any worse for the wear.

Bethany tells me he is a sweet, little boy and I am just dying to meet him! They live in Washington, D.C. and I hope to get up there by August.
