Easton James Zachary

Easton made his grand entrance into the world on October 16, 2013 at 11:24am. 

After 2 weeks of bed rest by body was still progressing into labor, so we decided to go ahead with the c-section that day. From the time the decision was made, to pre-op, to surgery, to our miracle entering the world was a total of 2 hours. 

He weighed in at 7pounds, 21 inches long. - and the think he was 4 weeks pre-mature!! 

He had pre-mature lungs and spent the first to days of his life in the NICU receiving wonderful attention and care. Easton turned around all by himself, no medication needed, only oxygen. I will say though that seeing your helpless little baby lie there with an oxygen and feeding tube is enough to make a mommy insane. 

We are all healthy, happy, and at home!!
