Welcome Asa


Asa Robert Perkes was born September 20 at 11:59 pm. He was 7 lbs 13 oz and 19 inches long. He came out a healthy boy. I was a little crazy and decided to go all natural for his birth. Big mistake!!! It was awful. I was that lady you hear screaming down the hall. It was very painful. Luckily it didn't last too long. We were all happy to have him out, although I didn't have the strength to hold him right away. Bob held him on top of me for a while. I actually lost quite a bit of blood so they had to work on me for about a half hour before I could hold the baby again. But we are both doing well now and we are happy to have him part of our family. As you can see the boys were thrilled to meet him.
