The Early Baby Catches the Worm?

My sister woke up this morning in a pool of amniotic fluid. The baby was not due until June 9th, so she was worried. At the hospital, they assured her that things looked fine, but that she'd be having her son much sooner than predicted.

At 9:18 CST, Marcus arrived, healthy, and my father insists, handsome. He's 5 Lbs, 2 oz. Not sure how long he is, though. My sister was 9.5 lbs when she was born, so I think Marcus was very considerate in deciding to pop out sooner rather than later!

Husband and I are heading out on Friday. I can't wait to meet the little guy! Photos to follow!!!
