My New Hero...

...is definitely Markee. I mean, I always knew she was amazing. But she out-did herself this time. For details on her grueling but amazing birth experience go here. She does a great job of explaining why she had her baby all natural, etc. But I got the awesome chance to see the whole thing from a slightly different.....view shall we say? Markee would have an AWFUL contraction and you could tell by her face she wanted to give up, and then she'd stop...look at me....pump her fist a little and say "I can do it" and then she did it!! It was so inspiring, honestly. She did such a great job and it was amazing to be there, thanks Mark for letting me be there! Here are a few pictures of RIGHT after Nashy came out. I love that little boy. I'm so happy for Eric and Markee.

I could kick myself, but I forgot the flash on all of the very first pictures! Anyway, if you can make this one out, it is precious!
Their first family picture! SOOOO sweet! Markee was saying "I'm your mommy." Yes, i cried!
This is the doctor that delivered Nash-Wa-Bash. Don't mind Markee's leg! 
Grandma Davis and Nash exchanging grins.

Daddy's hand, and Nashy's hand! I love this one.
Daddy Eric.
Eric making the calls. He would call somebody and say "Do you want to hear your grandson?" And then he'd hold up the phone to Nash crying! It was adorable.

I am so glad you were there, from the sounds of it, she wouldn't have made it without you! Thanks Ash!
