Announcing Robert Dale

So... As i said the other day... my godson was born on Friday afternoon... He is soooo freakin cute (as u can see)...

Name: Robert Dale

Wt: 8 lbs 1.2 oz

Ht: 19 inches

Bday: 3-6-09 @ 3:31pm

He was born via csection and had a little extra fluid in his lungs, causing some heavier than normal breathing. They took him in the NICU for observation and his WBC count was a little low so they kept him in there to give him some IV antibiotics to prevent him from getting pneumonia. He is eating well and they say he will be able to come home with mom tomorrow sometime. Mom is doing great, being forced to walk alot to go see Robert which is making her sore, but not too bad, she has done this before. Big sister Allyson is doing good, just anxious to hold her little brother, they wont let her in the NICU and she gets so mad at the nurses when she looks thru the glass its funny. She just keeps yelling 'BABY!'. Well, it will hit her soon when he is home that she is not the center of attention anymore, and that having a baby brother may not be all she thinks it is, lol.

Please pray that nothing else goes wrong tonight or tomorrow morning, so that Robert can come home with mom tomorrow. She is being very tough, just looking at the positive. But, it is hard to be all alone in her hospital room w/ no baby to love on like all the other moms. And I havent gotten to hold him yet, and I am seriously gunna go crazy when I do!!
