Matthew has a brother! There is no significance to the name Ryan Christopher. We just both like it.
He was born by C-Section. Matthew was a C-Section birth and Annie went to her due date with Ryan with no serious contractions, so the doctor did a scheduled C-Section. A very uncomplicated birth (all on videotape of course). Both mother and son are very healthy.
Matthew has handled it wonderfully. He kisses Ryan and says 'Hi' to him. We really expected a lot of jealousy right away. Maybe it will come later but so far so good.
