Here is a recent picture of Amaro Hobbes Olid-Stafford, born on Halloween night at 11:51, weighing nine pounds and nine ounces and measuring 23 inches. You would never guess it looking at his mother Katie in this picture that she had a very rough delivery, and needed two units of blood after she tore an artery. I am profoundly thankful that she and Eduardo didn’t have any romantic ideas about home delivery.
Here is what Amaro looked like on the first day of his new life. My favorite part was watching our daughter hold him and laugh: a deep, welling-up laugh of joy.
