Tuesday morning, after a very anxious night of antici- pating the actual arrival of our little one, we headed to the hospital shortly after 5am. 
The doctors and nurses at Cedars were so wonderful, totally keeping me at ease through- out the whole c-section process, with Tony keeping me in comic relief, of course... 
we headed into surgery at 7:30am and at 7:58, in the midst of all of the "surgery speak," all of a sudden, we heard a baby's cry, OUR BABY'S CRY! What a beautiful sound...immediately followed by the sweet words, "It's a Boy!"
I was stuck on the operating table, but Tony got to hold him right away and, all at once, I fell in love, first with my beautiful baby boy Luca, and then, all over again, with Tony, watching him hold our baby. 
The rest of the day was such a blur, but thankfully, we have lots of wonderful pictures and videos to help us remember the amazing experience. We are so grateful to our families for being there for the birth and for all of our friends and family who came to visit and/or send us their well wishes and prayers.
