Introducing Lucas Orlando Milliken

Hooray! Luke is here. After 42 hours of labor, Luke was born this morning at 11:27 am. He weighed in at 7 pounds, 10 ounces, and measured 20 inches. We are all doing well and are just so tired and happy and excited to have this new little bundle of love in our lives. Enjoy a few shots of his first day:

Q: Which is your favorite Star Wars character, Luke or Lando?
A: HA HA HA HA HA HA

Q: You picked Luke just so Jamie could say in his best James Earl Jones, "Luke. I am your father." didn't you?
A: WE'RE SO HAPPY FOR YOU GUYS AND CAN'T WAIT TO MEET HIM! HOORAY!

OMG, I totally missed the opportunity to bring Lando into the story.

I was going to say something like "he sure has enough hair to be an elf (or a pirate)." But I didn't. Oh, wait, I did.

PS - Get it? Orlando Bloom?
