Well its done! We are back from the hospital and we are pooped! Here’s a quick summary for now, I’ll post more soon!
Sleepin’ Sammy
A BIG thanks to our families and friends for their well wishes and generous gifts… Your support means a lot to us and we LOVE you all back - special thanks to Anna Maria for all her efforts, enthusiasm and FOOD! (Yummy Italian cooking 
)
My Dad deserves a medal or something…He sat in this hospital waiting room crap chair for over 12 hours, all alone, in a creepy little waiting room full of French teen pop mags, sleeping on his rolled up winter coat, no food, no water and only a bit of news every hour to keep him going…now that’s commitment to family!
Melissa worked hard an gave me the most beautiful little baby…Samuel! Our little guy’s stats:
Date of Birth: February 20, 12:34 pm
Weight: 8lbs 8oz
Length: 19 3/4 inches
Package: Yes
I think I’ll turn in now, gonna be a loooooong night. Who knows, maybe I’ll be posting at 3 in the morning 
The new family of 3!
Congratulation to all of you and welcome to Samuel!
Good luck with the poops
Congratulations to the both of you! He is a beautiful baby boy! I see that he already has more hair than his father!
Congrats you guys
You look really happy John, but give it a couple of weeks and I’m sure you’ll be as tired as Melissa 
Wow! Congratulations.
I hope all is well and that it continues that way.
He is a cute little guy, must get that from him mom

AugustClo, the poops are well…poopy
Its not as bad as I thought, the little guy seems so happy to give me a full diaper, he keeps smiling when I change him!
Juggling Mike, yes he does. I just hope it’ll stay there
Aaron, yeah bud, she was tired, but she’s so strong she was back on her feet the day we got home from the hospital.
Richard, you smart ass
Of course he gets it from her…she’s a total babe!
Brodies, Sam is very anxious to meet all of you guys too! I tell him all about you guys all the time… about how Matt and Kev will play hockey with him…and let him win… Like uncle Mike and John do
