This past Wednesday my baby sister, Jamie, gave birth to a beautiful baby boy. Unfortunately, I was not in Memphis to wait on his arrival but was on pins and needles in Sanford patiently waiting for hourly updates from my older sister and parents.
SHORT BIRTH STORY FOR THOSE INTERESTED:
Jamie was due on Thursday March 17 but watched her due date come and go. An induction was scheduled by her doctor for Wednesday March 23rd. We were hoping she would go into labor on her own before the induction but Mason ran out of time. The doctor began the process the evening before and then started Pitocin at 7am Wednesday morning. By 10am her water was broken and shortly after an epidural administered. Jamie was playing UNO and enjoying family & friends the rest of the day. She started pushing around 6:30pm and Mason was born about an hour later. It seems that her labor and delivery could not have gone much better. (I am only slightly bitter & jealous considering that both my labors were 25+ hours, with 2 hours of pushing that resulted in 2 c-sections).
Mason Ryan White weighed 8 lbs. 7 ounces and has a head full of dark hair. Apparently, he is the spitting image of his daddy.
Alright, now what you’ve really been waiting for…PICTURES of that baby!! The photos are not the best quality but the subject is perfect!
YES, he is already a Memphis Tiger fan (we grow ‘em that way)! YES, he is already spoiled and YES, I can’t wait to get my hands on him next weekend






He is adorable!
Congrats!
