Adon Jamal Robinson

He's here...Yay! Adon Jamal Robinson made his appearance on 11/12/08 at 2:30 pm.

Weight: 7lbs, 10ozs
Length: 20 inches



My water broke around 6:30 that morning, we got the kids ready and dropped them off to school, got breakfast and made it to the hospital by 9:00 am. They confirmed that my water had broken (it was actually a high leak as they could still feel the bag). One of my biggest fears was that I would have to be given pitocin, which I let my dr. know I did not want. Well, seeing that my water had broken and was steadily coming out, I wasn't really contracting...so, they gave me pitocin to bring on the contractions. I felt a good 3 contractions and was like, "bring on the epidural". After I got the epidural, it was easy breezy. I was numb all over and good and drowsy. The epidural was administered at 12:30 and at 2:30, two pushes later, Adon was here. Thanks to everyone for all of your prayers and kind words throughout this pregnancy.

It's a new day in America!


I am so excited about the HUGE POSSIBILITY of having our first african american family in the white house! I am so proud of where we've come although there a lot of people who are letting me down. There are more people than I care to admit that did not go out and cast their vote during this pivotal and historic moment...just because. No valid reason, just lazy. Oh well, God says that He puts one up and brings the other down. So, I believe that God's will will be done tonight as the numbers keep coming in. GO OBAMA!

WE DID IT, PRESIDENT-ELECT OBAMA! What a proud day!
