It was Evan's first outing. We took him to one of the local resturants. It was so much fun. After we finished eating Brady got to play at the mall playground and Evan slept. The day was perfect and I was able to finally see sunlight outside of my house.
We would like to welcome our newest member of the Harty family, Evan Michael Harty. He was born July 31st at 2:54pm, 8lbs 11oz and 21 1/2 inches long. He is our big man. My doctor predicted a 7lb 10oz baby because Brady was only 7lbs 3oz. He was just a little thing, but not this baby. Too funny. It was a little shorter than my first labor, but also very scary. I asked for meds towards the end of my labor and this time my epidural worked. When I delivered Brady my epidural didn't work so, I felt everything with my first delivery. With Evan not so much. I couldn't feel a thing and it was probably a good thing because poor big man got stuck. His shoulder got stuck and it got really scary. Immediately when he came out he was blue and the NICU lady came into the room. Ryan tells me that he wasn't breathing, but I couldn't see anything. My doctor walked me through some of the process that was occurring and it helped ease the pain a litttle. Finally, Evan began to cry and it was immediate relief. We were so worried, but Evan is great and he is in perfect health. 
Big brother is so excited to finally see baby Evan. Everything seems to be going well with Brady. Not too jealous. He is my big helper during the day. While Ryan is off to football practice, the three of us are at home. Brady has been AWESOME! I am so proud of him.
Ryan finished his school work and now is home during the month of July. So, we decided to visit the local pool a few times. First as a family and then with Grandma Jeanne's daycare. Both times Brady had a blast. It was so much fun!
