At 6:02 PM PT, Noak Milo Osterholme Peters entered the world. Noak is pronounced like Noah (you know, he of the Ark) plus a 'k' sound at the end. He weighed in at 8lbs. 4 oz. and was about 21 in. long. He has a full head of hair that mostly looks red (who would have guessed?). He and Maija are both doing great, but it was quite a chore getting him here. Maija pushed for 1hr. 40minutes. He was head down, but facing forward, which made it hard for him to make it around all the curves.
We're SO excited to have him here. Noak will get to meet big brother Kjell tomorrow morning.
Here are the first photos, from when he was just minutes old (click on the photos to enlarge):

We're so excited for you!! Redheads aren't so bad! We're glad everyone is healthy and happy. Say Hi to Big Brother Kjell!

Congratulations!! He is beautiful! What a little cutie. Kjell is going to be a wonderful big brother. I'm coming through Salem to have coffee with Grammy Sara on the 28th so will get to see you all then and meet Noak!!! I'm so happy for your family - Love - Vicki Mitchell
Oh my gosh! He's beautiful. He doesn't look too squished and what fun with all that red hair!!! I am so happy for the whole family and hope that we get to meet the little guy soon. Hallie would love to come and play with Kjell again too - once the new family is used to each other and settled enough for that kind of thing. Hugs! Jen Larsen (and Matt and Hallie)
Congrats!!!! I love your kids names.
Congratulations! Glad to hear all are well and healthy. Can't wait to meet Noak and that red hair!
Hugs to you all, Tara and Matt
Wow! He's absolutely BEAUTIFUL and we can't wait to meet him! Great job guys! Benjamin is all set to share with Kjell any good Big Brother tips he has up his sleeve! That's what he went to bed talking about last night- and that in the morning he would be able to see pictures of Baby Noak on the computer! We love you all...
CONGRATS ON YOUR NEW LITTLE BUNDLE OF JOY. JOEL WAS BORN WITH RED HAIR ALSO. NOW THAT HE IS OLDER IT IS A COPPER COLOR.
HE'S A CUTIE!
WE LOVE YOU ALL-
AUNT JAN & UNCLE CLAY
