Okay, so twice over now. My brother-in-law and his beautiful wife did have a baby a couple of months ago. But the time has finally come when one of my own siblings produced offspring! Andre Lamar Mabey was born today at 11:40 am. He weighs 8 lbs 5oz and is 22 inches long!
And he is absolutely BEAUTIFUL! Mother and baby are both healthy and fine. There was a bit of a struggle to bring this baby into the world. After 18 hours of induced labor, he was finally taken via c-section. Mommy was preeclampsia, so Andre was taken to NICU to monitor his health for a bit. The tubes (seen in the picture below) was simply a precaution. They scared me at first — I have never seen I.V. tubes in a baby’s head before. But, that is all they are; I.V. tubes in case they needed to administer him anything while he was in NICU.
