Miles William Johnston

How could I forget the most important event of February???? On Feb. 3rd, we welcomed a precious new baby into the family. The baby has been very anticipated since early summer last year. It seemed like Leslie was pregnant forever. Thankfully her labor was induced and scheduled so I took off and was able to be there. Chad was an absolute nervous wreck. That goodness he held it together long enough to "birth" the baby. I don't even remember John being that nervous and I was having a C section. Anyway, Leslie did not have to wait to long like some people do. I got to the hospital right around lunch. If I am remembering correcting she had him right after 1 or right after 2... I can't remember. But I do remember it was a short time of them being in there alone. After the birth, the stingy parents kept the baby with them for over an hour. Finallly Chad came out and let the grandparents and great grands go back... well I missed the chance. Next thing we knew the nurse was holding the sweet baby up in the window of the nursery and no one was even around to claim him or look at him... I mean we could've been giving warning... Finally we realized it was him and we got a good look and took a few pictures. I then went around to see Leslie who looked like million bucks. After this of course, the baby has to stay in the nursery for a while... so we went to eat at the Tin Lizzy. Let me add... it was snowing! It was cold! and the roads were freezing!!! After our lunch, we ran back in to the see the baby! It was not in the room yet. We were getting phone calls and people were giving out road warnings so I decided to leave. I was determined to get home to my BABY that night. I finally did make it too. After seeing wrecks on every bridge between West Point and Scooba! It was bad. I hate I didn't get to hold Miles that night but I did go see him the very next chance I got the next weekend. Can't wait til the little booger throws his fits to come home with me... It will be before we know it. I will post pics asap. I don't have my pics on this work computer!!!!
