Daniel Robert Eckels was born today, May 17th, 2005 at around 4:10pm.

He arrived about three weeks early of his due date of June 10th. He weighs in at 5lbs, 4oz. His poor mother was in labor for about 14 hours, 6 hours of intensely painful contractions, but in the end only about a half hour of pushing. It was a natural childbirth, without the use of demerol, or an epidermal. (not so much a choice, as a fear of needles, which I too share).

He's an absolutely beautiful baby. I have nothing else to say but that this is a great day of my life.

Here's some quick pictures.

My fear of needles quickly faded when I got contractions. I fear pain, more.

Give your wife my blessings, and a huge hug - she's a lot more brave than I. Give da baby a kiss for me, and congrats to you, daddy 😊
