Today we went to Carter & Camden’s birthday party, we left around 1pm and right as we got in the car mommy’s water broke. I didn’t really know what was going on so I passed out in the car and mommy walked me up to my bedroom for a nap, as she was doing that she basically wet her pants. Yuck! Mommy was super tired too so she cleaned herself up and went to take a nap. While I was sleeping Gramma came over so that she could take care of me and take me to Teagan’s birthday party. While I was at the party playing on the bouncy house and eating bbq, mommy and daddy went to Olive Garden and enjoyed some soup with breadsticks and alfredo. Afterwards they took a 2 hour walk around to get mommy’s contractions going…all was well!
When they arrived to the hospital they were checking into Triage and mommy’s contractions were 4-5 minutes apart…however they slowed down to nothing and the doc suggested a c-section. I gotta say, I’m not surprised, my sisters head was about as big as mine and she was overdue by 10 days (I was only 8), so mommy did what was best for both her and Ruby and agreed to the c-section. My baby sister arrived into the world at 1:30am screaming at the top of her lungs. She was 8 pounds, 8 oz, 21 inches long and had a full head of hair. I look forward to growing up with her and I already love her so much!
Auntie Renee came to join and watch the c-section. Mommy and daddy were both so glad that she was there, she was a huge help and took all the pictures. We love you tons Auntie Renee!
Walking to the Operating Room…mommy holding her gown together so you don’t have to check out her bootie.

Getting prepped for a spinal…mommy had to curl her back up and in went the shot, she said it hurt!
Mommy said she really liked all the docs in the room, they were all so great and I’m glad that they took good care of my mommy! Holy cow, look at that belly of mommy’s, it’s huge!
Hey, mommy wore those slippers when I was born too! Those must be her lucky slippers!
My baby sisters head!
Dr. Dawn Russell and baby Ruby…look at all that blood, yucky!
She is here, mommy said she looks a bit smaller than I did but we look like spitting images of each other. (She got an 8 on the Apgar Scale)
This was our favorite nurse…hopefully Auntie Renee can remember her name because mommy is drawing a blank! My perfect baby Ruby.
My proud daddy!
Moments after coming back to the room mommy got to have baby Ruby on her chest for some skin to skin contact…baby Ruby was happy! Welcome to the world baby Ruby, I’m going to be the best big brother to you!
