Our precious little boy was born Monday, September 25, 2006, at 3:00 AM. We had planned a home birth in Red Deer but Rowan decided he didn't want to go that far and was born with hardly a moments notice at our midwife's house in Rocky.
Rowan weighed in at 9lbs 8oz. with a 37cm head and 57 cm (22 in.) long.
We were all surprised that the labour was only 3 hrs long and Rowan was 2 min. away from being born en route in the car. Luckily our considerate midwife, Barb Bodiguel, had the forsight to prepare her guest bedroom for us just in case things progressed quickly and sure enough, Rowan was in a huge hurry.
He is a beautiful, brown haired, chunky little angel and Lucas is very enamoured by his newest "pet". Lucas rubs Rowans head very gently and tries to give him food and toys. We feel truely blessed with our two beautiful boys.
