My nephew, Curtis Michael Cashion, made his grand (and fast) arrival on Friday, August 21st. He was 9 pounds and 7 ounces, 22.5 inches long!! He is a big boy for sure. Although he was 2 weeks early he was very, very ready to come out! Around 7:35ish Carrie Beth and Lee went to the hospital. They called to let us know they were on there way there but didn’t want us to head that way until they knew what was going on. Well at 8:13, I got another call from Lee (after they saw the nurse) and he said it is happening NOW! Then at 8:57 pm, little Curt was born!! Carrie Beth had no plans of having a natural childbirth, but Curt had another idea! When they got to the hospital she was already 10 cm! By the time I got there at 9:45, the nurses were filling out her “pre-admin” forms….kinda backwards! LOL! Carrie Beth officially became my hero that night!! I mean, come on, a 9 pound baby NATURALLY!!!
Nevertheless, both mom and baby (and dad) are doing great. They got to go home Monday morning and Curt got to meet his brother “Buddy Fat Pants” on Wednesday. I will be going to Pelham on Saturday and will get more pictures. Until then, here are a few pictures from Curt’s hospital stay.
