My parents arrived from Marshall just before 1AM appearing adequately caffeine-fueled (or was it the adrenaline from the anticipation of grandchild numero uno’s arrival?) for an all-nighter. Carey’s doc, George Branning, was not on call, so his partner Dr. LeAnn Haddock arrived to deliver Baby M.
Around 3AM, the grandparents headed to the waiting room, leaving just Carey, me, Joanie (the labor/delivery nurse who was with us all night) and Dr. Haddock to do bring Baby M into this world. Of course, Carey did all the hard work! Nope, sorry, no photos. The photographer was too busy being supportive and helping to take many photos.

At 4:12AM, Saxon Marie Moseley, entered this world 20 inches long and weighing 7 lbs, 3 oz. All fingers, toes accounted for. Healthy baby.
