Alexander Brandon Forster



Alexander decided to hold off on his due date of the 27th of March.  He waited until the 2nd of April.  Steph woke me up about 3:30, and said "ok we'll have to go in pretty soon." We were out the door about 4:20, arrived about 4:30 and he was here at 5:00 am on the dot. Stephanie did great she did everything natural, nurses, doctor and myself were all impressed by how strong she was through the whole process.  She is doing really good.  Xander weighed in at 8 lbs 4 oz, measured 20.5 inches long.  He is pretty quiet guy, he hasn't cried much and has been really sleepy.  The hospital had a ban on all kids under the age of 14 for influenza reasons, but little did we know that they actually lifted the ban at 3 am, so Isabela was able to come in and meet her little brother she was quite excited as you can see.  She jumped right in and wanted to feed him and give him kisses.  We have all been so blessed by him joining our family.  Thanks to all for helping out.
