Catherine says “David come out”

Sunday, October 21st, 2007

Dear friends, family, and other random people:
    David George Edward Dashjr decided to come out early! He was born at 10:05 AM on Saturday, October 20th, in the year of Our Lord 2007 (just shy of 1 month before he was due) measuring 18½” (46½ cm) and weighing only 5 lbs, 11 oz. He has dark brown hair and is very healthy, despite being born nearly a month early: Corinne’s water gradually broke throughout Friday, and we were surprised by David’s birth early Saturday– all of a sudden he was coming out, and was born in our bathroom before the ambulance could get here! We then rushed to the hospital, where he and Mama will be staying for the next two days (at least). They won’t let Catherine in, so she and I will be spending a lot of time together. Her new favourite phrase is “David come out” :)

Love,

Luke, Corinne, Catherine, and David Dashjr

I finally wrote this out for a family member to avoid hurt feelings and wasting her money since she loves to buy us things and can’t read our minds.
