John Jackson Foster "Jack", was born on 12/11/11 at 8:07am. He weighed 7lbs, 10oz and was 20.5 inches. His poor Mama labored for 31 hours, but look at what she got in the end:
Amanda had a bad couple of days: she fell on Friday and had to have 5 stitches in her lip before going in at midnight that night to start the inducement. Then, she endured 31 hours of labor (28 hours of that without drugs!!) before ultimately welcoming Baby Jack to the world.
Elise was more than a little ticked at me when I told her she couldn't go see Jack with me on Sunday. Poor Aunt Amanda had been through enough--she didn't need the further exhaustion that would've resulted from a 3yo visiting her at the hospital that day! Elise will get to meet her new baby cousin this weekend--and is very excited about it! She watched the videos that Papoo and Kathy posted last night and kept saying "I love my baby cousin."
Welcome to the world, Jack! We're all so glad you are FINALLY here, and we all love you so very much already!
