Jack Haydn Spires

Jack arrived on his due date: Monday the 16'th of March just after 2pm. He weighed in at 8.10 (an ounce bigger than his sister) and measured 19.5 inches tall.

Traci was scheduled for a C-section on Tuesday, but started contractions early Monday morning, and before we knew it, Jack was with us! We are so excited to have him in our family.


Both mom and baby are doing really well! They are still in the hospital, and will probably stay till tomorrow (Friday).

Thank you for all the phone calls and emails - we really appreciate your thoughts, prayers, and words of congratulations.
