Our Little Angel

He's finally here- Dayton Benjamin King, born May 17th at 11:08 am measuring in at 6 lbs, 19 1/2 inches. His birth was an amazing experience that we will never forget.
Check out these muscles! His dad is very proud!
Grandma and Grandpa Clingo arrived in time to greet their first grandson.

Dayton is such a calm baby. He was pink at birth and the only time we have heard him cry is when he is cold. His eyes are blue- for now- and his hair is thick and dark.
Maybe we're a little biased, but the shirt (which he will grow into) says it all!
He met the outside world today, May 19th, and came home. He fit right in at the home that's been so eargerly waiting for him.
Dayton loves his crib and especially the bedding (big thanks to the SICU nurses at BGH!)
In his first 4 hours at home, we managed to soil 3 outfits, 2 blankets, mom's outfit and, of course, 3 diapers. He's adapting to his new world very well!
We are so blessed to have such a healthy and perfect baby in our care and are so grateful for all the love and support we have received with his arrival. We welcome our little angel, Dayton Benjamin King, to our family!
