Labor Day





Shorter days... Cooler mornings... Wide-ruled filler paper... Lost lunch money... All signs that Labor Day is near!

Summertime is coming to it's natural end and, this year, labor day has taken on new meaning for this family. Only a few days away, we thought we would celebrate early by welcoming a brand new baby into the chaos we know as... life.

August 26, 2008
6:15am - the alarm sounds (one last night of uninterrupted sleep, well for Gene anyhow!)
7:20am - kids are on the bus and headed off to school - little do they know we are on our way to the hospital!

10:15am - all settled into the room and INDUCTION has officially begun...

11:45am - Dr. Parshad arrived, checked on progress and broke Amy's water

1:00pm - Epidural is in place and Amy is resting!

3:15pm - Dilated to an 8 and will be ready to push soon!!

3:57pm - Isaac Terry Summers makes his debut! 6 lbs, 13.7 oz and 19.25" long...

He looks like he was cut from the exact same mold as the other three kiddos!! Amy was amazing and we are all thrilled for the UNeventful pregnancy and delivery.

Your thoughts, prayers, concerns and love have been a fortress for us. We can't thank you enough. We (all) love you!
