Welcome Trenton Alexander Choi

On January 10, 2014, at 9:18 am GMT, Trenton Alexander Choi joined our family.  He was born at the  Kensington Wing of the Chelsea and Westminster Hospital.  He weighed 7 pounds, 6 ounces and was 20.5 inches long.

He must have been ready to meet us, because he arrived a lot more quickly than any of us expected (including my doctor)!  They broke my water at 7:30; by about 8:30 I decided I thought I was about ready for my epidural; the next thing I knew, it was too late for the epidural and Trent was on my chest shortly thereafter.

Nathan is so excited to be a big brother and he is fascinated by Trent.  Every so often, he stops whatever he is doing and comes over to check on Trent and say hi to him and give him a little pat.  Then, he goes back to playing for a while, until he decides it is time to check on him again.

Trent has been a great addition to the family.  He is mellow and easy-going just like Nathan was as a baby and he is already a pretty good sleeper.  We are all in love with him and are very happy to now be a family of four.  I can't wait to see Nathan and Trent grow up together and be best buddies!

Arriving at the Kensington Wing - ready to meet our baby boy! 
At this point, I was feeling good, and had no idea just how quickly everything would start happening :)
