I copied this from what I posted on Stacey's blog:
Simon Mathew Gilday has made his entrance and a special appearance in Nashville! He was born at 4:21 pm today weighing in at 4 lbs 7 oz and 18 inches long. This is Stacey's twin sister Natalie by the way. I'm posting for Stacey because she is in the hospital with her new baby-son. She is exactly 35 weeks today, so he came a little early. They took him straight to the NICU (Neonatal Intensive Care Unit) for observation and to make sure he's okay, but so far so good. =) Little trooper. I'm told he has a lot of dark hair, Matt's nose, long feet, dark eyes, and is "teeny teeny tiny". He nursed wonderfully tonight; latched right on and no problem sucking, so that's a good sign. No idea how long he will be in there but I'll try to keep you all posted while Matt and Stacey enjoy their new-found roles as parents. I also don't have a picture at this time but that too will come. =) Fairly easy labor: started having contractions last night and went to work this morning for a couple hours before deciding she needed to go to the hospital. Then she went from being dilated from a 3 to pushing out baby in about less than 6 hours with an epidural. She said it was pretty "easy": couple pushes and the doctor did the rest pulling baby out. I'm so proud of Stacey and thrilled for her and Matt and already in love with my new nephew Simon. Love you Simon!
