Cindy and Dirk's sweet boy arrived the exact time that I was to be hosting 30 women for Cindy's baby shower on Sunday - September 13 around 2:29PM. Cindy went into labor Saturday morning when her water broke 6 weeks early! They held off his delivery 32 hours and were able to get two doses of steroids in to help with his lung development. Great news is that he didn't need any oxygen and weighted almost 5 pounds at birth!! (4 lbs & 15 oz.) He was in NICU for 7 days and I got to stay in the hospital that first night with Cindy and Dirk. What a special night that is... sweet Dirk was spending equal hours beside JJ (Jackson James) and Cindy. Cindy was miserable with the after effects of a super long labor, C-section and pain meds. But JJ is thriving and got to come home just a week later. I have never seen Cindy and Dirk so happy!
