Kim and Austin are doing fine. Austin came into the world Saturday afternoon January 26th at 2:14pm weighing 8 lbs 5.1 oz 20 1/2 inches.
It was a great adventure as we almost didn't make it to the hospital. Kim says she never really had labor pains, just heavy pressure. Heavy pressure was 15 minutes apart for about 45 minutes, then it went quick to 3 minutes apart for about 10 minutes. We broke all traffic laws when they went to 2 minutes apart and she said "I need to PUSHHH!!!!" I said NOOOO!!! screaming "NOT YET!" We were in the middle of a major intersection not moving as heavy cross traffic wouldn't let us through. I guess they wanted to see a birth right there in the intersection. Well we got to the hospital and still kaos, no wheelchairs as I ran around with my head cut off screaming for help. I found a wheelchair as the nice lady said "do I need to call a nurse?" I'm sure I had a stupid look on my face when I said "call everyone we're having a baby in the parking lot!!" I ran back to the car to see Kim's face and it said we're about to give birth Right NOW in the car! Once I got her seated in the wheelchair I ran with her through the halls to the third floor with all personnel in harmony running to the room where we would deliver. We barely got Kim into the delivery bed when Austin came. Wow... I couldn't believe my eyes.
The first 48 hours have been real rough for this 42 year old. My body says 8 hours sleep, not 1, maybe 2, or 3. This will take some getting used too. Hope to be back on the air soon. Kim and I need much rest. We are so grateful to all who have been praying for us. It was real neat to witness one of our Lords amazing miracles take place with my very own eyes.
one new proud daddy!!!!
