Here is a picture of our new little nephew, Timothy Issac McLennan. This is Heath's middle sister, Emily and her husband, Tony's new baby. He was born on December 13th in Wichita Falls. He weighed in at a healthy 7lbs 8 oz. In Wichita Falls, they have a "rule" that you can only have 3 people in the delivery room and she all ready had her husband..(of course!), her sister, Molly Beth and her mom, Molly (who is actually a ...and was my....doula that I HIGHLY recommend!:) I went in there just to say hello, but she was in alot of pain and things just started progressing really fast. I kept "motioning" to Molly Beth that I was going to leave, but she kept giving me the signal to be quiet and just stay! I am soooo glad I did! It was such a wonderful blessing to be in there to see a miracle be born (not to mention my tough sister-in-law, had NO....yes I repeat.....NO drugs!). We were so afraid that they were going to ask me to leave! I stood over there very quietly and out of the way, just writing down what time everything was happening. In fact... Dr. Lamar did stop while Emily was pushing and asked who I was! I was so embarrassed and was laughing so hard that my face turned bright red! I also got to take all the pictures of him after he was born! His birth was sooooo special, because it is the first birth I actually got to be in the delivery room.....well....on that side of the bed!! He was so cute, alert and the best little baby! He is now doing great and when I talked to Emily yesterday she had taken him for his 4 week check-up and he is weighing in at a healthy 10 lbs! He is joined by big brother, Luke Anthony 4, and Lydia Joy, 2. (Oh, these pictures were scanned in my computer is why they look like this!)
