My neighbor Ilona had her baby on Sunday morning, on my mother's birthday! Edward Constantine was born at 4:40 a.m., weighing 8 lbs. 1 oz., and was 21 inches long. Ilona was in labor for 12 hours, with 2 hours of active pushing at the end. Mother and baby are healthy, and should be home as of today.
Tim and I had shown Ilona and her mother our nursery on Friday night, and I touched her belly and said, "This might be the last time I see you pregnant!" I was supposed to go over on Saturday afternoon to see their nursery, but she must have left for the hospital around the same time!
Congratulations to Ilona and George on the birth of their first son! (I checked the web nursery at St. Lukes online but they don't have any pictures of baby posted: Web Nursery.)
