Alexander James Gilson

Alexander James Gilson makes his appearance on this overcast 24th day of October at the Georgetown Hospital.  Weighing in at 6 lbs 3 oz, and 20 inches long and with the sweetest, most innocent look on his face.  Didn't come out crying but when those nurses got a hold of him he let them have it.  This is the first day of the rest of our lives.

C'Mon Petocin

It's 8:00 in the morning and I've got the petocin flowing through the old veins.  And oh boy it's starting to kick in.  No rest between contractions that's for sure.  Up until about noon everything was going smoothly and I thought this labor thing was easy and I was actually phoning all my friends between contractions!!  Sure changed my mind a few hours later when the drugs really kicked in.
