Ryker Bills

On Tuesday, January 20, 2015 our seventh grandchild and third grandson was born at 9:40 pm at Logan Regional Hospital, Ryker Blls. Kelsey had a tough labor and delivery and developed an infection and fever during labor.  Due to that Ryker had to be on an IV in the NICU until Saturday, January 24. He is doing great. His parents are madly in love with him and they are grateful to be now home with him. He is perfect! I am so glad he is here and I'm so proud of Kelsey and Martin. Congratulations you two!

Kelsey and Martin's official announcement on having a boy.
Kelsey with a big smile before she felt real pain and suffering. Her epidural didn't take, so she really did feel everything.
7lbs 13oz 20.5 inches long.

After two and a half hours of pushing Ryker finally decided to be born.

The transformation of Martin and Kelsey to first time parents was awesome to watch. Martin was so amazing during the labor and delivery. He is such an awesome dad already. They are loving having their son. I love what having a child does in changing us into parents. It is very humbling and changes everything we knew before.

Being stuck in the NICU wasn't the most enjoyable for Kelsey and Martin.
But Ryker took it all in stride. He is a tough baby already, being poked and prodded several times a day.
I'm so proud of Kelsey. It wasn't an easy labor and delivery. But she did it.
Ryker all pooped out!
