Courtney in full makeup and hair done looked like she was going to prom as someone commented instead of giving birth!
The dad to be was cool as a cucumber!
Courtney was progressing and was dilated to 6. Karen asked the nurse if we had time to go to the cafeteria and grab a bite of lunch. She said we did. So we were sitting there after we had eaten lunch, just visiting and watching Luke eat his M&Ms, when Karen got a text from Kaydee saying Courtney was dilated to 10. This was within 30 minutes of us leaving her room!
We gathered our stuff very quickly and hurried up to her room. Within an hour she had given birth. Matt, Karen, and all three sisters were in the delivery room. They said Courtney was a champ! Duncan Matthew Channel was born at 2:00 p.m. on March 25th. He weighed 8 pounds, 7 ounces, and was 20" long.
Proud Gigi and Papa!
Proud aunts and cousins!
I finally got my chance to hold him!
He came home today in an outfit smocked my his Gigi and a blanket knit by his Great Aunt Pat. He's so precious!
Sleeping soundly in his crib. I hope he does that a lot in the days but especially the nights to come!
Karen is on spring break this week so it staying with Courtney and Matt to help take care of them all!
What a blessing he is to our family!
