Child Birth #2

     My second pregnancy was a hard pregnancy. My original due date was Oct. 25th 1993, but he was being stubborn and wasn't born for another 8 days. It was then that I was induced, come hell or high water I was going to deliver him that day.

   While I was pushing, the umbilical cord was wrapped around his neck and he was turning blue. They took him right a way to get his color back. It was a scary situation but it ended well. I was told he was a girl but when I told the nurse her name, another nurse said, "that's a funny name for a girl". November 2, 1993 Justin was born. Can I say, "being induced sucks"! Any mom's out there who have been induced may or may not agree with me on that, everyone handles things differently.

    Justin was about a year or year and a half old when he got his first pair of glasses. We had to get a strap for him to keep his glasses on, he didn't like that too much. Isn't he cute with glasses?

We had friends and family there to help us celebrate our day! The reception was fun, but I think the band only knew one song because they sang Achy Breaky Heart a lot that night. I like a few country songs and that isn't one of them.      I think everyone had fun. There was one guest being stupid and I thought we were going to have to call in reinforcements (police) but he ended up leaving on his own, thank goodness.      My mother and father in law watched Steven while we were on a cruise to the Bahamas. The cruise and the island was new for both of us, I found that Freeport, Bahamas was cleaner than Nassau Bahamas. We didn't stray to far from the ship but we did go to some of the shops. There was a guy trying to get me to let him put corn row braids in my hair, ...

Vacation Part 1

      Since we worked a lot, we didn't go on long vacations, we would go to Missouri to visit his parents for a few days a couple times a year. Steven was a toddler, and it was too hard to travel with him sometimes. Eventually, we went to other places like Florida, Las Vegas, Kentucky, North Carolina, Indiana and Georgia.
