Preston Gary is here.....Finally!


Just in case someone was left out of the email group (and its very possible considering the amount of drugs I'm on). Preston Gary Aller was born on Monday Sept 17th, 2007 at 6:20 PM - he is 10lbs 3.2oz and 21 inches long. Sarah was in labor for about 16 hours. After sitting on Mom's chest for literally 2 seconds he was whisked away to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, where the doctor asked, as he was being wheeled in "Why are you bringing me a two year old?".


He has had a tough run for his first 24 hours. They are confident that he will be fine but he will be there for a couple of days while he receives antibiotics for what they think is pneumonia, but we don't know when he will be home for sure. He wasn't breathing well when he was born so they put him on a respirator and he hasn't come off of it. He has been resting all day, and if you can look past all the tubes he is pretty adorable. We love him so much, and we're praying that he gets well soon.

Take Care Everyone.

Love,

David and Sarah Aller
