Evan Keith

Evan Keith was born on 1-20-09 at 3:57pm. He was 7lbs. 11oz. and 20 1/2 inches long. We're all home now and doing well. He looks a lot like Jasmine did as a baby. I was in labor for 15 hours, which is still better than the 28 with Jasmine. I did have a little problem with bleeding again but they got it stopped without the massive panic they had the last time. Every single person I encountered while during my hospital stay was awesome. Last night was a little rough being away from Jasmine. Particularly when she got on the phone sobbing and begged me to come home. I cried for hours after that, even though I knew she had stopped and was playing with the dog. I'll explain more after we've had a little more rest. I've had nine hours of sleep total in 4 days so nothing I say can be held against me. ;)

I love the name!

I think Dan said it best: "Welcome to the world little dude."

Hope you can get some good rest, hon.

Love, Beth

I wish you could see the smile I have right now. What a great name to begin life with. My heart hurt when I read Jasmine was crying for you, and then you were crying. Get some rest dear one. We will all be here when you rested and ready for us. (Hugs)Indigo

Yea! I'm glad to hear some details. Mom called Perry Tuesday and told him the news. Can't wait to meet my new little nephew. Glad to hear that you're fine and home resting. Love you and God bless you all!

Congratulations, and a big welcome to the world to Evan Keither. No doubt Jasmine is doing a bit better by now, and yes, woman, sleep when you can! You should know by now how rare that'll be for a while........ like 18 years. :)

I'm glad it all went well, and you are both, presumably, healthy.

Ha, um, sorry-- I meant Evan Keith! I have no idea how I happened to write Evan Keither..... oy.

Welcome Evan Keith. So glad everyone is home and that it was a much better experience. I am sure there will be much blog fodder in the near future :o)
