I don't want to go into all of the details (shocked?) about the day and evening leading up to the night of Faith's birth, but I did want to mention how extremely blessed we are! As Nicole started what everybody knows as labor (PUSH!!BREATHE!!PUSH!!), I was lucky enough to be by her side. The nurses had asked me my goals (see above) and put me to Nic's ride (ride, really Rob? I mean right) side. Before I knew it, I was holding a leg...
There was an instant where I thought I would be lucky enough to cut her cord, but there was a slight problem. As my daughter formerly known as Baby L came out, she had her cord around her neck and body (so two complete entanglements). Needless to say, I didn't cut the cord. Nicole didn't have any idea until well after the fact, which was good. So WHEW!

Yay! I said so on FB, too, but again, congratulations. She is really just beautiful, and I can't wait to meet her!
ReplyDeleteOh, Rob! You made me cry, and you posted just the best picture ever right here of the two of them. I'll go to your Facebook page, too, to see the pictures, but honestly...I am so happy for the two of you!
