Introducing....Ian Spencer Willis

Merry Christmas to all and to all a Sleepless night!


December 7th brought a new addition to the Willis family. Ian Spencer Willis arrived at 12:49 pm and weighed in at 9 lbs. 6 oz. (Yes, that is a 30% increase over our last one). He stretched 21.5 inches.

Now for the details... We got to the hospital at about 7:45 am. Check in took quite a while and then waiting to be induced takes forever. I don't understand, you're scheduled - so you think they'd have everything ready. So we finally got the drip going at 10:15. I got an epidural, but just barely in time. At 12:49 a very blue little Ian shot into the room, right after the doctor came literally running into the room. The cord was wrapped around his neck pretty good, but by 1 minute he got a 9 rating.


His little newborn outfits didn't fit. His feet were to long for the footies and his head was to big for his little hats. He was pretty swollen at first, I guess the cord wrapped around him made his face swollen and bruised.
