Daddy Mark says...
Mark called called about 1:15 and said, "Momma, he's here!  He's got your chin; he's so beautiful."  At that point, he was just overcome with emotion.  Baby and Katie are doing well.  Mark is as proud as can be! 

We talked to him more last night, and he said Ian has long fingers and toes, cupid-bow lips, and a long torso.  He has a gentle cry--we could hear him.
Momma Katie says...
"Ian, that's your grandma on the phone.  Yes, it is."  Katie sounded strong and happy and just like a wonderful, devoted mother!

Katie is very tired.  Pray that her body heals quickly.  Ian is nursing well.
First came love; then came marriage;
Then came . . . Ian Mark Wedel!
Hello, World!  Baby Wedel waving in the very first sonogram!!
