Introducing Baby Boy #4

We added another boy to our family on Tuesday June 30 at 2:10 pm. He weighed 7 lbs 3 oz and is 19 inches long. He and Parker weighed the same at birth so maybe he'll grow solid like Parker. Dylan was the biggest at 7 lbs 14 oz and he is my smallest boy. Go figure. Sam was the longest at 20 inches. Anyways drum roll please............... his name is
LOGAN DAVID THOMPSON
surprise I know! Being our last baby I had a hard time deciding. Thanks Doc for the instinct pep talk. My Dr. told me to go with my gut feeling so I did.
He was vampire pale when he came out I thought I had gotten bitten by Edward.

He has lots of dark hair, but it looks like it will lighten up like Sam's did. Mommy, Baby and Daddy are all doing ok. We had a scare with him after my water broke his heart rate dropped dangerously low and my Dr. called for backup and the OR was on stand-by for a c-section because I was only dilated to a 6. Gordon had left to get lunch and the nurse asked me where he could be reached she wanted him there ASAP. There were lots of nurses just waiting. I was trying to keep from crying. My Mom walked in on the excitement unsure what was going on. Then Gordon came in and saw my Mom crying and me scared and he said I was only gone for 20 minutes and chaos breaks out. He held my hand and I started crying. After many minutes and moving positions, replacing machine cords baby decided to cooperate and his heart rate improved. When he came out the cord was wrapped around his neck resulting in all the drama.

My cute boys. I LOVE YOU ALL!!!!!!!!!!!
Sam gets grumpy when we let his brothers have a turn holding baby Logan. Sam goes nose to nose with Logan and says "hi baby" over and over. We found him hanging over the port a crib trying to take his hat off to rub his head.
We are all doing well. But I did miss having my camera girls (sisters) in the delivery room with us. Gordon stepped it up and took some great shots. We'll see how our first night at home goes.
Logan thanks for coming to our family. WE love you.

I really like the name. It must have been weird delivering without me in the room... but I am glad everything turned out good. He is so cute and I can't wait to meet him. Logan and Baby Durt will have lots of fun together.
