On Saturday, June 25, 2016, at 10:03 AM, Finn Caleb Brotzman was born. Seven pounds, seven ounces, 21 inches long. He is as healthy as can be, and his cleft lip has no palate involvement, so he'll only need one surgery to correct the lip. The 28.5 hours that crawled by between the time we checked in to labor and delivery on Friday morning and the moment that our son took his first breath the following morning were full of restlessness and anxiety. Janet and I are both still exhausted, but it was all worth it.
During our stay in labor and delivery and postpartum, we watched at least parts of all four games of the Orioles' home sweep of the Rays, so Finn's life as an O's fan is off to a charmed start. He has a motley assortment of Birdland Birthday Buddies: Luke Scott, turn-of-the-century reliever Ryan Kohlmeier, and 1977 bullpenner Dick Drago. I know you'd probably like to read several paragraphs about Dick Drago, but instead I'll distract you with baby pictures. Enjoy!

Awwwwww! Congratulations to you both! So happy to see everything went well and that you can finally let out that big breath you've been holding for months now. Can't wait to see and hear more in the future!
Congrats Kevin! Before ya know it you'll be debating the designated hitter and letting him borrow the car! OK maybe not for a while... Hugs to Momma too!
Congratulations Kevin! Glad the baby is happy and healthy.
Congratulations to both of you!!
That's fantastic. Welcome to the world of fatherhood. I'm sure you've been told this but your life is forever changed. My best to you and yours.
So glad everything worked out. Now the next venture of life begins and both of you will love it.
