FINALLY!

Finnegan James (The Baby Previously Known as Chiquitito) was born at 4:11am this morning! We're both happy and healthy, and he is absolutely adorable (not that I'm biased or anything!) Delivery was not easy, but I'm so happy with how everything went, even though it wasn't how I'd planned.

I'll be back in a few days to post some pictures and share my birth story.

Oh, and he weighs in at 9lbs13oz -- holy schmoly!
