The month of May must have been a busy one- to snuggle up to your honey.
On Thursday January 17th, 2008 my cousin, Heather, and her hubby, Zeke, welcomed their first child Noah- born 8 lbs and some odd ounces. Daddy delivered the baby with the help of a midwife, and he even got to cut the umbilical cord. It was a 12 hour labor and an all natural birth with no pain killers and not even an IV stuck in her arm. She assured me that the Birth Center was located across the street from a Hospital if there was an emergency, and all midwives were licensed nurses. Although it wasn’t a water birth, half of the labor was spent in a bath tub. Heather explained the birth, “as an amazing experience,” and she described her tiny son as, “as the most beautiful thing she’s even seen.”
Meanwhile, my good friend, Jesse, and his wife, Brenna, welcomed their first child, Meghan Jane Williams on Friday 18th. Meghan was 6 lbs 1oz and 19 inches. Jesse must have followed in his parents foot steps, as he, too, was a May conception. He celebrated his 26th birthday on January 21st with his new baby girl. Both families assured me pictures will be coming soon.
Guess who else is having a birthday on January 25th, my very own Sammy [but we will keep that on the DL, since he is turning 30 and he's not too happy about it.] My sister, Kelly is also turning 29 on January 28th, and my cousin, Jillian will be 18. Woo-hoo for January.
Birthday wishes to all!
