Hello,
Carson and I would like to announce the birth of our daughter, Lucille Caroline. We plan to call her Lucy. She weighs 8 pounds and is in perfect health. Lucy doesn't have alot of hair, but the hair she does have is blonde and has beautiful blue eyes. she is along baby and have a feeling that she's going o be tall. Carson and I are just overjoyed at having her. She had a very interesting birth. I went into labour a week before my due date, so Carson was at work (the next day would have been his last day before the3 weeks he got off). Carson drove home as fastas he could, but by the time he got there my water had broken. He drove as fast as he could to the hospital, but Lucy just couldn't wait. We ended up delivering her in the car.
Love Lisa, Carson and our newest addition Lucy

Well we had a girl. Margaret (Maggie) Grace came into the world on Sept 20 (a few days late). I kept having false labor so Sept 19 at night I went to the hospital only to be sent home AGAIN with false labor. A few hours later, around 4am on the 20th, I start feeling labor pains again but convince myself it is false labor. When my water breaks I call 911 almost hysterical. An ambulence doesn't arrive until the head is almost coming out!
She weighed a healthy 8lbs. 4oz and has very little hair (right now it looks brown but there is so few it is hard to tell) and blue eyes.

Our son is finally here, unfortunately he chose the most inconvenient time possible!
Pierre and i were at the beach when our son decided to arrive, i gave birth under a beach umbrella! Fortunately one of the lifeguards was partially trained as a nurse!!
Welcome to the world:
Ocean Seamus Theodore
We were going to name him just Seamus Theodore, but Ocean just seemed to fit!!

Hello everyone! I'm just sending out an update for all of you that have been calling the hospital non-stop! Neither of us ever thought that the LA gridlock would be so bad that we couldn't make it to the hospital, but hey, things happen! The doctor who was three cars behind us is a lifesaver. I don't think I could have delivered the baby in the back of our little car without his help. We are forever grateful for our new friend.
Rachel is fine, and so is our beautiful boy. We've named him Mikhail Addison Lior and he weighs 6 pounds even. I attached a picture of the little man. Looks like me, eh?
Thanks for all of your support. - Adam

SUBJECT: Kentucky Fried Baby
Everyone:
What better way to prove your love and dedication for a certain fast food resturant than to have a baby at one of their branches?
Yes, that's right, Ishmael Harland Plumstone decided to put in a very quick appearance - five minutes after my water's broke, on the 9th November at 1:13pm, while I was eating a Zinger Meal in my local KFC.
He weighed a healthy 8lbs 4oz, and had tufts on black hair and blue eyes which will no doubt turn brown in the near future. Ishmael was tha name of the cleaner who proved a big help during the birth, and Harland is, of course, Colonel Harland Sanders, father of all KFC's.

Dear family and friends,
Isaiah Michael & Estella Inez were born March 3rd, 2006. Isaiah was so anxious to see the world that he was born in the back of the ambulance about a block away from the hospital. Estella waited a little while longer to make her fashionably late entrance into the world. We can see she's going to be quite the diva!
Love,
Colin, Lisa, Isaiah & Estella.

Hello to everyone!
Well on the 18 Jan i became a mum - i still can't beleive it. And, get this, I ended up with twins!!! Our baby boy, who we've named Harrison James has a little sister as well! Charlize Kaye was hiding behind her brother it seems. We didn't even know she exsisted until, after Harry was born, the contractions didn't stop - needless to say it was a bit of a shock for all when Charlies little head started to crown!
Harry was 5lb 3oz, has a full head of dark brown hair and big blue eyes - hes a total mini Mark. Charlie was only 4lb 2oz, was almost bald and has big blue eyes as well. Shes beginning to get hair now its dark like her brothers.
I can't believe it!
Love
Anna, Mark, Harry and Charlie

Dear Family and Friends
I would like to announce that our babies have arrived... although they were to be born on Christmas day they decided to come early. They were all very small and need to stay in the NICU here at Presbitarian Hosptial. Gwen is still resting so I took the time to get out the laptop and compost a letter of their arrival.
Gwen had an emergency C-section at 7:43pm. We were having a normal day today just relaxing and enjoying each others company talking about the names no doubt because we could not decide on them still! Well now we have to LOL... The delivery was rough and her labor intense although not real long because of her having the C-section.
All of our little ones are to stay in the NICU until their original due date and then maybe longer if they need to. So from now which is October 1st till Dec 25th we will be up here most all the time.
Gwen's preg was rough with false labors and low weight gain but she did all the doctor told her but we have our little ones now and they are angels from Heaven.
First to come out was girl 1 Emmalyne Hope Arthur at 2lbs and 18 inches long with dark black hair and big hazel eyes
Orrin James Arthur was 2lbs and 6oz and 19 inches long with hardly any hair but it was reddish in color what little there was and Blue eyes
Elizabeth Faith Arthur was the third to come into the world at 2lbs 9oz and 18 and 1/2 inches long with thick fire red hair and green eyes
Orry Matthew Arthur was next and the largest of the kiddos at 3lbs 1oz and 20 inches long and bald as can be with hazel eyes

Hello all,
Two days ago I gave birth to Claire. She's beautiful with blue eyes and her father's soft brown hair. She's weighed only 4 pounds and 7 ounces and was measured to be only 17 inches long. She gave us such a scare. She was born with Hydrocephalus and will have to have a shunt. We are lucky it wasn't as bad as it could have been. She will always be a little behind, but she'll still be normal.
Love,
The blessed family

Dear Friends and Family,
Wow! What an adventure! Aiden Matthew S******* was born yesterday. The funny part is that he was almost born at Target. I was shopping for some last minute baby things when he told me that it was time to come out. My water broke in the middle of row six! Sean was at work so I had to have someone at Target call an ambulance. I didnt want to drive because I was already having contractions. But i arrived at the hospital and Sean was right behind me. Aiden was born at 10:16 pm and weighed 7 lbs. 2 oz. and was 20 inches long. Were doing fine and hope to bring him home later today. Ive got to go and finish up some nursery things.
Love and Miss you all.
Love always,
Nikki :)

Dear Everyone,
John and I would like to proudly announce the birth of our daughter!
Haven Gwyneth Carter
Born August 1, 5:00 pm, at home
Weight: 7 lbs., 5 oz.
Haven has whispy brown hair just like Mum and Dad, and looks just like her Daddy did when he was a baby! She even has a few freckles-- how adorable!
Haven was born at home because of a series of strange events. First, Mum was outdoors gardening and Dad was in the barn working on his tractor. Mummy went into labor right in the middle of the flower garden! Since the phone lines were out due to a storm the day before, Dad had to drive over to the nieghbors to get help. Mrs. Lyons came right over while Dad sped off to town to get old retired Doctor Sell, who helped deliver Mum when she was born! They were back in forty-five minutes, and after getting moved inside Haven was born with no complications (and with the help of Mrs. Lyons and Dr. Sell)!
We named Haven after a person we admire (our very own Haven of BtN-- aka Siri, nowadays) and Gwyneth for Gwyneth Paltrow, a famous person. (Really, we just liked the name-- though we hope she'll be that pretty!)
Love and Peace, God bless,
John, Leah, Haven

Dear Family and friends,
We are proud to announce the birth of a bouncing baby girl, Ruby Estelle Sloane (Cecilia Sloane sounded like too much). We are on cloud nine with our little seven pound, three ounce baby girl. The Ruby Tuesday herself was born with a little complication. We ended up having to "bring out the big guns" (Kiran's words) anduse clamps to get her out. Alas, she is fine now but it was a bit scary. Ruby can't wait to meet her family!

Dear family and friends -
The babies are here! We are proud to welcome Grace Willow, Kennedy Winter and Joseph Prior. Grace is named after my grandma's mn, Kennedy after the president and Joseph after my granpa's mn. They were born July 20, 2006 at our local hospital. Grace weighed 4lbs 3 oz, Kennedy weighed 5lbs 1oz, and Joseph weighed 4 lbs 10 oz. They all have blonde hair and blue eyes. All of the babies were jaundiced and had to stay in the hospital even longer than normal, but they are home and doing great.
Love,
Chelsea and Chase

Family, family, family!
Our dearest little boy, Lennon Sunset (I hope you're happy, little sister of mine--I didn't use Rising, which you deemed "awful") is here. Lenny is doing very well, which pleases me.
He's a pale little thing, and I'm a bit worried he'll be a blond--Pell is, after all. But I'll love him anyway, though I've always preferred dark little children to absolutely fair ones. Lenny had a tough time getting out, I'll have you know--but he did, luckily. Wouldn't be so good if he was still stuck!
We went to the midwife, just as we planned, but he was very, very breech. I think he might have been a bit uninterested in going somewhere cold and bright, as he cried enough when he finally made it. Only with a great deal of coaxing was our wonderful midwife able to deliver him. I was very pleased that we didn't have to go to the hospital.
His first name is, of course, after John Lennon. His middle name came about because I could see how beautiful the sunset was just as he finally relented and resigned himself to being born. It gave me strength--though having Pell to lean on was a help, too.
It'll need to be quiet around here for a while, since I'm absolutely exhausted still, but I'll welcome all of you in a bit!
Love,
Aurie, Pell, and dearest Len

Dear family and friends,
We are proud to announce the birth of our baby girl Emma Ruby. Her middle name is given to her because it is also her birthstone. She weighed in at 6 lbs. 4 oz. She was born at the Geisinger Medical Center in Danville, PA. She has a head full of beautiful dark hair, sapphire blue eyes, and tan skin. She has her mother's eyes and her father's nose. She arrived with a surprise, being born in the car on the way to the hospital. Daddy played the role of doctor for this delivery as 911 gave him instructions over the cell phone. We are just glad all is well and the baby is healthy!
Love,
Jay, Diana, and Emmy

Dear family and friends,
Chris and I are thrilled to tell you that on February 28, I delivered a beautiful baby boy- Tiger Jude. He is named after Tiger Woods, as well as a tiger in general, because we know that he'll have a fiery personality, and our late neighbor and dear friend Judy. He is six pounds, thirteen ounces. He has long legs and blue eyes, with brown peach fuzz. He was born at Newton-Wellesley Hospital.
Love,
Hannah, Chris,

Whoops, part of it I accidentally deleted
However, Tiger has a minor case of brittle bones in his legs. Although we are assured it shouldn't be too much of a problem, he is encouraged not to play too many sports.
