tripp decided to arrive before his expected time-so everyone was nervous about his early start. how big would he be? would it be a girl or a boy? his grandparents and an aunt and some fellow IDC staff waited not very patiently, getting updated by text of the progress. when michael came in and announced that his new son was 4lb 8oz and doing well we all rejoiced! it was a wonderful moment filled with the relief of 4 days of anxiety. michael's smile was enough to ease everyone's minds-such a proud dad and supportive husband! i haven't gotten to meet him yet-but i can't wait to take pictures of this new family all together :)
