Welcome Linkin! Our lil LJ!


On June 5, 2008 at 10:09 a.m. Linkin Justin Giguiere was born! A whopping 8 lbs 7 oz and 21.5 inches long! That's a big baby for our lil Kelli!!!

So after a long night of labor, taking it slow and steady, things sped up quick and after only two minutes of pushing, our lil Linkin Justin Giguiere was born! Kelli did SO amazing, given that her epidural was pinched and she could feel the whole thing at the end..

They started her slow, then broke her water, then pushed the PIT up and she just started ta going!!! This lil lady is MADE to make these lil ones!!! But she started to feel pain and we sent Justin out to tell them to give her more Epidural... instead, the nurse came in to check her and said, "Let's see how ya push.... I'm calling the doc let's have a baby!!"

And it was like... "ok Kelli, ease up... wait for Dr. Folkestad..." ha ha ha Linkin was about to fall out!!! And Dr. Folkestad walks in and says, "ok looks like one push and we'll have a baby!" He wasn't kidding... It was really only like two pushes..!

Kelli was amazing! She was sooo tired from being up all night but she popped that lil guy out! It was so amazing and so special and precious! Justin and Kelli held each other right after... The bonding was so touching and tender! I love child birth, it is something so sweet and pure... SO spiritual!

Here are a few highlights of the day!

Big bro Drake and big sis Kiowa are soooo happy and soooo proud... you can see that in the photos! Mom says they are so in love with him and that they are such good helpers!!!

Good Job Kelli! I love you! I love your family and was honored to share in the moments!
