It's official...




He's the cutest.

We all got a chance to meet Michael while he was in the transitional nursery. We went in one at a time while Meg and Tom stood by his side. They were trying to persuade Megan to stay in bed, but nothing was keeping her from seeing her little one. She hopped in a wheelchair and sat next to Michael, while Tommy stood next to him proudly.

He lay there peacefully, undisturbed by nursery bells, flashing cameras, and cooing relatives. It's amazing the personality he's already displayed and the love that engulfs us all. Even if it's coming from distances far away, through emails and blog comments.

Meg is recovering well. She will be wheeled around for the next day, as she heals.

So thank you again for all the love. Megan and Thomas are just overjoyed with their little bundle.
