Erica and Joel got a surprise when Eloise Ranae Brown decided to end her unpredictable and vexing pregnancy with an early arrival! After trying to convince her mom she should be an only child she was delivered (c-section) Aug. 18th, 2008.
Joel (the nurses are all calling him "steady Eddy") had everything under control though and supervised everything from the ground while trying to recover from a faint. To bad the anesthesiologist had another emergency and left Erica vomiting, crying and feeling way to much of the surgery.
El had a few little issues to work out (wet lungs, blood sugar issues, oxygenation) and spent a night in NICU but they sent her to the well baby nursery next day and declared her Perfect!
I'm just about sure I have the cutest 2 Granddaughters in the world
She seems happy about the accomodations.
We feel so blessed to have such a beautiful addition to our family. Its funny how such a little ball of mewling, wrinkled, pooing angel brings so much joy and brings a family so close.
