The day that changed our lives...
The big day has finally arrived. March 2nd , 2008, 7:02 am. Words can not express the joy that comes from meeting a new life, created by God, that comes from your very being. The pain, the endurance, and the determination it takes to bring a life into the world to not compare the joy of first seeing a little being emerge.
Our story starts on Thursday, February 28th and ends early Sunday morning. Let's just say that I never (and I mean never) thought that our child would be late (one week to the day) and take a wopping 3 days to come out! Even in the midst of all the misery of birth (the pain and discomfort) there are so many precious and absolutely hysterical moments. Jason and I have laughed so many times already about the crazy things I found myself doing just to get through. Let's just say that travelling to the hospital at 3:00am in the cargo area of our jeep with my head on the floor and my bum in the air (to avoid pushing him out too early) is just a little sampling of the hysteria! If you want to hear more of our story then one of us will gladly share some of it, but
I'll spare you the nitty gritty details just in case you aren't so sure of all this info!
Korban Elias Ashley arrived into our lives with tears and shouts! He weighed 9 lbs. 6 oz. and is 22 inches long. I am positive that at least 3 of those inches occur in his feet! He has the longest feet I have seen on a baby! He has a head full of medium brown hair and has dark gray eyes and perfect skin. Could I possibly dote on him anymore? Probably, but I'll spare you for now and just let you see for yourselves.
