Welcome Jordan Alexander to the world! He was born at 11:59 a.m. PST.
The lil slugger came out at 6 lb., 5 oz. and 19.5″ long. Looks just like his big sister, according to his very happy dad, and his sister totally takes after their mom. But, alas, I understand the little one “is packing,” so I understand to mean that he takes after his dad! 😉
Shan and John both sound fantastic, and I miss them desperately and wish I were there with them. Stupid time difference. 😉 Anyway, Jordan was born at 8 months’ gestation and will luckily NOT need to be in the NICU like his sister was (she came at 7 months and was 4 lb., 11 oz.).
In any event, I will be insane until I get photos, so John, make it happen! 🙂
And yes, looking at the phone WILL will the thing to ring — I walked outside, had the phone in my hand and wished John would call, and he DID — right at that very second!
Everyone’s happy and healthy, and that’s all I need to know. And nobody or nothing is going to steal this joy from me.
*Title from the old collect-call commerical where the guy makes the birth announcement instead of giving his name and hangs up so nobody has to pay for the call.
