Landon Michael

Landon Michael was born on Thurs. 11/19 at 6:45 pm. He weighed 6 lbs 14 oz and was 20 1/4 inches long. He is very healthy and we are so thankful that he is here. He was born by emergency C section about 1 and 1/2 hours after I arrived at the hospital. His cord was wrapped around his neck twice( which we didn't know at the time) and was causing his heart rate to drop dramatically as labor progressed. He was born within 5 minutes of his heartrate dropping. We are very thanful for the quick thinking of the Dr's. They were incredible. I woke up a couple hours later to a healthy baby boy. He looks just like his big brother did as a baby.



More pictures to come after we get home.
