A Proper Post on Our Newest Family Member


Cyrus and Mom, less than an hour old
Here is a more complete update on my little post via Blackberry yesterday.

January 17 at 4:55pm (Boston time) 8 lb. 20.5 inch long Cyrus Allen Lamoureux was born in the Cambridge Birth Center. It was a very fast labor for a first birth; Sara and Jef were on their way to pick me up at the airport and then Sara decided she did not want to have the baby in the car so when I did land and taxied over she was in full push mode with Cyrus arriving barely 10 minutes later!


It was very beautiful and exciting and Cyrus is adapting to this plane with very little complaint.  Sara is overjoyed at feeling better already (she can touch her toes!) even after her marathon performance (all natural birth although she admits that she was ready for the epidural several times). I'll be here for a while to help out but everyone is doing just fine.

    Congratulations! Cyrus was toasted properly this evening at my reading group meeting - and I was reminded that he has a great namesake: Cyrus the Great, Founder of the Persian Empire. Obviously, great things are expected of him! So proud of you, Sara. Much love to the three of you. Grandma Barbara
