In honor of Logan, I will recount some pregnancy memories...
- From January til May while pregnant with you, I never once breathed through my nose. Every membrane in my body was swollen for 5 months. I can still remember the air I inhaled the morning after you were born. Amazing..
- I only gained 18 lbs. while pregnant with you. Thank you :)
- I carried you like a perfect little basketball, (which sat firmly on my bladder).
- I craved little debbie oatmeal pies, deviled eggs, and potato salad.
- Your dad and I watched 'Roadhouse' on TV at home while I was in labor. For a brief moment, I thought about naming you Dalton after Patrick Swayze.
- Prior to watching 'Roadhouse', I watched a very sad 'ER'. A lady died while in labor. Jeff fussed at me.
- We left for the hospital about 11:30 pm.
- Your dad was a little nervous on the way over thinking I'd waited too late to leave for the hospital. I think he drove about 90 mph.
- It must have been a slow night at the hospital because Dr. Metcalf and the nurses sat in our room prior to delivery talking about the day's happenings.
- You were born at the early, ungodly hour of 3:05 am on Tuesday, May 7.
- You weighed 8lbs, 13 oz, and were 21 inches long.
- I didn't name you right away. Surprise :). Mom is so slow on making decisions....
- La Leche League took our picture the next day to promote their program in the newspaper. Still no name. You are baby boy Adkisson in the paper. Sorry...
- Big Sister made Mamaw get up at 6:30 am the next morning to come to the hospital. She couldn't wait to see you. Even if she did pray for a little sister :)
- We left the hospital on a beautiful, unseasonably warm Wednesday afternoon.
- I wrote this post on your birthday, but planned to insert some great baby pic of you. I can't remember to do that, so here's the post...
