Baylor James

Our family is proud to welcome it's newest member. Baylor James was born at 12:02 in the morning on August 4th. Kim's doctor called on the 3rd after she got some bloodwork back. The doctor was going to be out of town starting Friday for a week and she didn't thikn Kim would make it until she returned. We had to be at the hospital at 5:30 Wednesday night for a scheduled 7:30 C-section. Unfortunately, the doctor got delayed in a prior surgery and someone else got into the O.R. before us. An hour later, as we were starting to walk out of the room to the O.R. we were told that we had been bumped for a mother that needed an emergency C-section. Another hour later it happened again, bumped for a more urgent surgery. Finally, at 11:00 we headed in for surgery. As with Elle, the anesthesiologist had trouble getting Kim set up but at 11:30 they started the procedure. By 11:50, the doctors started telling me to get ready for pictures and there was still hope that he would be born before midnight but, after some maneuvering, out came "Bubba" at 12:02. Pretty appropriate that the second child in our family is listed as being born at 0002 on all our paperwork.

He loved it and his eyes were rolling back in his head




First bath




He spent the entire time hanging on to the side of the tub




Quite a bit of hair. After the bath, the nurse combed it into a nice faux-hawk




The next morning, Grami and Poppi came in to meet Baylor and bring Elle to meet her brother
