Parker Wade Davis

On October 25, my sister Lauren had her first baby. Let me just say that she is my hero. Because Lauren had borderline hypertension, her doctor decided to induce her a few days before her due date. Lauren and Justin checked into the hospital on Sat night to start getting her body ready for induction. At 6am Sat, they started her Pitocin. And... she didn't start pushing until about 9:30pm. At 10:29pm on Sat Oct 25, Parker Wade Davis was born. He was 9lb 10oz and 21in. Ya, he was healthy. Lauren did great... and Justin :). She was calm, patient, and sweet all day. Even after all the trauma of a vaginal birth, she was up and walking around the next day and never complained about pain. It was so fun for me to be her "personal nurse". Precious little Parker is going to be my new obsession, so be ready for a lot of Parker posts :) I am a very proud aunt.


The nurse brought him to the hallway so we could see him while the doctor was taking care of Lauren.

Sarah and I did this while we were in the waiting room for 12+ hours. It helped pass time :)

Happy little family!
Too freaking cute!! I think he was smiling at me, he loves me.
Very proud Nana and Pops
Let's go home
Soaking up my last hour in Arkansas with Parker, don't worry Parker , I'll come back soon :) First chance I get. I'll bring uncle Andy with me next time so you can meet him. He's kind of crazy though, sometimes he gets confused and calls you Preston.

I love his toes, I call them "tingers" (long toes that look like fingers)
His cute bassinet( that he'll prob never sleep in, at least as long as Nana is there.)
