We are over the moon for our new son, Solomon Hazel Hougland Ramirez. Born Sunday, February 10th at 8:17pm, Seattle WA. Weighing in at 7 pounds 9 ounces. He's a bona fide sweetheart.
We've just returned home after three long days in the hospital. In a true introduction to parenthood, none of our sweet and whimsical birth preferences went as planned and Sol came out a week late via urgent c-section. Highlights of the topsy-turvy 18-hour labor included: mom's high blood pressure, a presumed placental abruption that led to insane contractions with little progress (dilation of cervix) and fetal distress in the form of baby's repeated tanking heart rate. The story has a gorgeous ending, though: Sol is now here and WE ADORE HIM!
