All of us were born, but not too many of our parents have great stories like this to share with their friends.

I know most of you don't know me that well as I tend to stay out of the heated debates on the list due to a lack of time... but I wanted to share the good news and an interesting story with y'all... My wife delivered our second son at 5:15pm on the 20th. Matthew Robert Garza weighed in at 8lbs. 2oz. and is doing well. Mom is also doing well. Matt is already proving to be quite the impatient little guy and was in quite the hurry to come into the world. He was in so much of a hurry that he didn't even wait until we made it to Labor and delivery! When I said that my wife delivered our son, I meant that literally, she delivered our son, right there in front seat of our car in the parking lot of Labor and Delivery!!!! When I ran into the L&D area of the hospital to tell them that we needed someone out there NOW, I never expected a sea of purple and teal to come swarming out of the door. We had 15 nurses come rushing out. What a sight! WOW, talk about an adventure! My nerves are still quite shot from the whole thing. I was joking with her after the fact saying something to the effect of "So much for that epidural you were wanting...." She didn't seem to catch the humor in that statement.... Anyway, in the grand scheme of things everything turned out ok. There were/are so many things that can go wrong during a delivery, that we consider ourselves quite blessed that everything happened without a hitch. (other than the fact that we were in the car... <G>). I have to go and get the wife and kiddo from the hospital this morning so I'll respond when I get back. I'm probably the only person left on the planet without a digital camera so I'll post some pics once the film is developed. Cheers!
