The date was September 3, 2013. The time was around 2:07pm.
That was when Tad Robert Sims made his debut.
Six pounds, 15 ounces; 19 inches long. Tad, his mother Ashley and his father Jason all came through the experience with flying colors. Based upon the first pictures Valerie declared that he was the spitting image of her son Jason when he as a baby.
Here are a few more photos including some from our first visit with Tad.
