November 20, 2010.
It was earlier than we expected, but was perfectly timed. Campbell Boyd Heird – born at 6:39 am after mommy’s labor was induced the previous afternoon.
A low glucose level and small birth weight (5 lbs, 3 oz) meant you needed to be monitored for a bit in the NICU at Advocate Illinois Masonic hospital. You also had a touch of jaundice (as many babies do), so they bathed you in a blue light until you were fully done. As I told mommy, they had to sweeten you up a bit more before we could take you home.
And home you came, on Thanksgiving.
Your grandma’s, uncles, half-brothers & well wishers can come here and follow your exploits.
We are looking forward to them all.
It's Campbell Time!
