DJ (Daddy Jr.)



So as you might have heard, I was along for 'the ride' when Douglas came into our world so suddenly. I got to ride in the front seat of the ambulance and see my mom in the back on the little tv monitor they had up there. I was so excited when we could see that they could hear his heartbeat! As he was being delivered, I had to wait outside, pacing back and forth, before my sister and Uncle Rob showed up.

I could hear my dad getting angry with the ambulance driver for taking us to a hospital with no neo-natal facility, after he promised us he was sure South Austin had one. I could hear my mom screaming inside since it was too late for her to get medicine, so it was all pretty scary.

As soon as I saw this beautiful little boy, I was shocked! Such little feet, such little ears, little everything! I cannot believe that I can't see him AT ALL until he can come home. I am still in shock that I am a big sister. At least I got to meet him in person and touch his tiny hand before he went.
