He's Here!



Jacob Thomas Knoll ("Jake") was born at 1:24 a.m. on Sunday, Aug. 3. It was a very fast labor. I started having regular contractions around 7:30 p.m. and we got to the hospital at 10:30 p.m. Unfortunately, the umbilical cord was wrapped around his neck, (they didn't know this until he was delivered, but his heart rate was dropping so they needed to deliver him quickly). But he's here and healthy and that's the main thing. We are adjusting to life and all is going well.
