Denzel's Birthday Breakfast




 



Of COURSE, we had a birthday breakfast this morning . . . 

after a few sobs when we put the "birthday plate and glass" on the table, knowing it wouldn't be used this morning, we enjoyed a really good breakfast of fried eggs, bacon, toast and Ovaltine!



LOTS of Ovaltine!! ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ 




And then we did what we usually do: reminisced about the birthday boy/girl's birth.  In this case: Denzel's birth! 


He was our "firstborn in the wilderness" of Provo! Our doctor thought the delivery would take a lot longer since it was my first time giving birth, but an hour after Dr. Stubbs checked me, Denzel was ready to be born...our doctor missed the birth!! He had gone back to his office, and the hospital had the wrong number for him since they had just moved their office to a new building.   


But Dr. Stubbs came skidding into the delivery room, right after the birth, and was there to stitch me up. 

Denzel weighed in at 9' 8" and was slightly turned so he did some major tearing during his birth. But Dr. Stubbs was a GREAT stitcher-upper and I never had a problem...

I had NO IDEA that the plastic inflatable ring they sent me home with was NOT a bathtub toy for the baby, but was for ME to SIT ON!! *_*





We loved the good breakfast AND remembering this sweet boy's birth! Love you, Denz!!
(P.S. Thanks Nat [and Kristy] for being here with us!! {We loved the extra bacon we got cuz Kristy Jo Hunt left early for the college!] Love you both!!)
