Brent's Thoughts

I hate to knock the Julie posts out of the top spot, but this is also cool news. Uncle Imon called me tonight and talked for a while about the 56 Chevy and sent some pictures. It looks great and I thought I would get the pictures up here for anyone that is interested in it.

We just got home a little bit ago. Pauline and Julie are both doing well. P has snapped back so good that he nurses at the hospital were talking about how she was doing better than other women there that had vaginal births. Julie tested as having a 0% Jaundice level which is apparently very uncommon. So much so that the nurse that took the reading apparently took it several times to make sure that was correct.

Both P and J have appointments on Monday to see their respective doctors for checkups, but right now all of it is looking good.

Pauline’s water broke last night and she went to the hospital and had the C-Section. Julie Ann was born around 10:35 last night and weighed in at 8 pounds 4 ounces. She was 20 inches long, with a full head of hair.

Pauline decided to have a general anaesthetic for the C-section so she came out of it sleepy and tired, but otherwise fine. This morning she was feeling a lot better and was talking and laughing and such. Dad took a bunch of pictures last night and I think he will have them up on the farm blog here soon.

I am catching a nap and a shower and then I am going back. I should have some more pictures after that.

*edit*

I have picked up the domain julienorris.net so as soon as the Internet cycles through, you can type that in and get straight to this post for now.

Taken from bash.org:

<Nukleon> the greek “hell” was cold
<Nukleon> like the norse
<@amz> the christian hell is also pretty cold, compared to its heaven
<Nukleon> uh
<Nukleon> wut?
<Nukleon> heaven is bliss
<@amz> it has liquid sulfur in it, so it can’t be over 400 celsius… on the other hand, the bible describes the sun in heaven shining like 7 suns, each 7 times as bright
<@amz> which gives an estimate of 2000-3000 celsius

That was just too interesting. I had to post it.

I have been leaving it up to Pauline to post the latest baby news, but I am not sure if she will post about this or not.

So far pretty much everything with the new baby has been fine. P has had a fairly easy pregnancy compared to what some people have told stories about. Here lately it has started to get a little tougher. Her feet have started to swell. Her right one more than her left and I think it is really bothering her a lot. She has been spending time on the couch with her feet up trying to bring the swelling down some.

Today we also got some bad/good(?) news. Apparently, Julie hasn’t turned in the womb and the doctor has plans to do a C Section to get her out. That upset P a lot and has really kind of brought her down. There are good aspects to it and bad and I am not going to hash over those for everyone. I think she is in good hands and I believe everything will be OK.

Right now Julie is scheduled to arrive on the 23rd of this month. If anything changes we will let everyone know.
