Zach has arrived! He is already a very good baby who listens to his mother because I REALLY wanted an October baby and he came at 4:17 AM on October 1st. He was 7 lbs 1 oz, 19 inches. This was my hardest delivery so far. I was expecting each one to get easier. We arrived at the hospital at 2:00 and barely had time to get the paper work and most importatly the epidural in before was born. He was born sunny side up (which I now know is nose up instead of nose down) and that is what caused most of my problems.
This is the first time I have had a roomate in the hospital and I would prefer the private room for next time. She was a great person to talk to, but she had a C-section and her nurses came to check her every 20 minutes last night. Then our babies would wake each other up. After two nights of no sleep I am glad to be home and hoping for better luck tonight. Even with a newborn it has got to be better that the last two nights.
We are so excited to have our little Zach here and have him so healthy and safe. Enjoy the pictures.

Yay Alisha! He looks like a perfect little angel. Makes me anxious for my own sweet one to get here. I love the pictures with each of your older kids holding the new baby! Precious!
Congratulations! What a sweetie pie he is. Sorry to hear about your exhausting time in the hospital.
Congratulations Alisha! So precious. Marley was turned "sunny side up" as well, but they turned her before I delivered her (that was NOT fun!) :)
Wahoo! He's such a cutie! And you are looking very good too, would have never guessed it was a hard delivery. Your family is really growing now, hooray for the Harris's!

Congratulations!! Hopefully you can start getting more rest once you get home. Thanks for sharing the pictures and update!
Congratulations!! Zach is adorable! Sorry to hear about the difficult labor, but I'm glad that you are both doing well.
Hooray! So glad everything went well and he's here safe and sound. He wasn't too big so that's good. And way to go with a name that has a z and a q in it!
Congratulations! He is so handsome. Eli was also a sunny-side up baby. (And my hardest delivery too!) I agree, it should get easier with each one. Glad he is here safe and sound.
Congrats!!! That is so exciting. I hope you #3 boy is more mello than mine. Thank so much for the quick pictures.
Congrats!! I'm so happy for you!! He is absolutely adorable and with a really great name too!! Give yourself lots of rest time with this one. #3 takes more adjusting, so don't try to hurry yourself into doing everything. So happy for your family!

Congratulations! He's a cutie!
CONGRATS, CONGRATS! I love the name and he is just adorable!! I wish I were there to help out!
Nolan was sunny side up too... and they turned him before he came out - when he turned her FLEW out... the doctors weren't ready and the epidural had worn off... NOT cool!!
What a beautiful family! I especially love the pictures with Rylie and Mason holding Zach and looking into his eyes! Hopefully your long range plans include somewhere in Colorado! I would love to hold your sweet little guy! Love, Aunt Bree
