After a pretty rough delivery (3 1/2 hours pushing) Blake Christian was born around 7 PM last night (inducing began at 10:30 the night before) . There were a few complications…waste in the fluids, umbilical cord in a knot, and low heart rate due to the stress of being in the birth canal so long. There were 3 pediatricians present who decided to keep the baby in the Special Care Unit, hopefully just for last night. It’s hard to see his face in the attached picture due to all the tubes, but we think he looks just like Dawn. Hopefully I’ll be able to post a better picture tonight.
We are the mundane
