Welcome Brody

Brody's First Day

We arrived at the hospital at 6 p.m. on Sept 30, 2008

Evan and Kooper fell asleep waiting for Brody to arrive. They decided to go camp out downstairs in the lobby with food, T.V., and somewhere to sleep. They never complained, they were just excited to see him.

It was a night full of mixed emotions, we were excited for the arrival of Brody but also nervous and scared for our daughter. Watching your child give birth is a wonderful thing, but also a very painful experience to watch!

Alissa was very strong and never complained even when the epidural pump got turned off when the nurse changed the battery. Alissa knew something was wrong, so I headed to the nurses station to ask about the pain for the 3rd time (nurses were bothered by my questions). I didn't care because I knew my daughter isnt a complainer and I knew something must be wrong with the epiduarl. After the nurse came in for the 4th time she finally called the anithesiologist who noticed the pump was not on. After they fixed the problem Alissa was a new person, sitting up, laughing, and relaxing.

After a long night with help from friend Tawnya, Lynn and of course mom, Brody arrived early Oct 1, 2008 at 5:08 a.m.
