Carson Garrett Halligan came on Thursday at 7:34 pm, 9 lbs 8 oz., 22" long (yeah, I can't believe he's that ginormous). He's a cutie! He has lots of long, darker blonde hair! His mohawk is adorable! I'll give a more detailed "birth story" another day but thought I'd put up a quick post.
Also, we would appreciate prayers, Carson started breathing fast early Friday morning and ended up going to Newborn ICU to get oxygen and now he has a feeding tube too because he just wants to sleep... He has an infection in his lungs. He will be ok because it was caught early but will probably have to be there all hooked up for 5-7 days... :( It's sad to see all the tubes coming out of him and have him away from us but were glad it was caught early and hope he gets better soon and can come home!

Yikes...I can't believe that big baby came out of tiny you...ha ha! I love his hair, he is so adorable! Congratulations!
Congrats and he is so so so cute!!(You know it's true when you have a nursery/ NICU nurse telling you because I've seen them all!) I am so sorry he has to be in the NICU. Where did you have him? Just so you know, at least at St. Marks NICU, the nurses are really good and really do love to take care of and hold those sweet babies, especially when they are as cute as yours. I know they can tell you everything you need to know there but if you have any questions about anything feel free to call me, I would love to help in any way I can.
He's adorable! And I love the hair! We'll keep in our prayers as well! I hope everything's going alright! :) Can't wait to see you guys!!
Of course the day we get to China here comes Carson!! He is so cute Kristen and HUGE!! Wow, go you!! I can't believe you are a mom and I can't wait to see him. Zack and I will keep him in our prayers. Who knew you a G would pop out a little blondie?! Good luck!
I can't believe you had such a big baby! How cute! So sorry he has to stay in the NICU. Christian had to as well for 3 WEEKS! He had to have oxygen and also a feeding tube. He was such a stubborn boy and he refused to eat! I know how hard it is, but it is much better to bring him home healthy when he is ready. He will be home soon enough keeping you up all night! Congratulations!
