Today was the day ladies and gents! I'm proud to announce our 2nd daughter arrived this afternoon. Ivvy Mae Lusk was born at 2:14 pm, she is 7lbs 15oz, and is 20" long. She has all 10 fingers, and toes, and everything went pretty well. She came out face up, so it took a little longer during birth. The Doctor said she had a guardian angel with her because she had the umbilical cord around her neck, and it had a double knot in it. We were very lucky they decided to induce Allyson 8 days early!
Congratulations Ryan, Another little blessing and It looks like she has a proud sister too. That cord looks like that could have been a bad deal. I don't think I would attribute anything to luck, there's a Creator that wanted Ivvy with you.:)
Another congratulations! Glad everything turned out well.
Congratulations to both you and Allyson on the arrival of little Ivvy Mae. What a lovely name for a beautiful little lady. You all have been so blessed from our Heavenly Father.
You're right Seth. Izzy actually had been praying for a baby sister before we even knew Allyson was pregnant. They're definitely angels!
Looks like your family was blessed today, in more than one way.
I wish every single person in your family the best. May many happy years follow.
Thank you sir!
Congratulations to all involved!
Congratulations to you and your family.

Congratulations, Ryan. All the best to you and your family.
Good stuff Ryan, glad all proceeded well for your family.
Congrats Ryan, know how you feel, we just had one grandchild.
Congratulations Ryan! What a wonderful family!
Thanks gentleman! Now I have to get her room done. :LOL:
Congrats from Chris and I as well and I think Seth hit it on the head! She's a real blessing! :)Quote:

Thanks guys! During this delivery, the doctors informed my wife she tested positive for Factor 5 back when they did the testing after she got her blood clot. That was back in March/April. That has been a whole other set of issues. Nothing more testing and trips back to the doctor's office(s) to pay for someone elses Jag or Ferrari. No, I'm not hostile. Ok, maybe a little.
That doctor stuff sucks, I know how you feel. My middle boy had a kinked kidney tube that was causing bad pain and our local doctor had an xray to prove it. That was in July and he had to go to a kidney specialist in Sioux Falls. He had surgery to fix it in Sept only the doctor didn't do anything cause he thought it looked good. His pain kept coming back and the doctor had him taking all kinds of weird crap and then scheduled a colonoscopy for him and that's when we drew the line. To make the rest of this long story short he had the surgery to fix the kinked kidney tube on Jan 3, the same surgery he had in Sept. when they didn't do anything. My deductible starts over Jan 1 so if they just did what they were supposed to do the first time, he would have a lot less pain and I would have saved 2k. Ask me what I think of Dr. Witte :mad:
That is really bad to hear but I'm glad you guys were able to get it done. Too bad it cost you again and cost your son more pain and suffering. I had a Dr hand me a business card a few years ago. It said practicing medicine and family care on the bottom of it. I told him it was weird I work on cars and trucks and I can't list that I practice working on them but he could? He laughed but my reaction left him not laughing. :LOL:
Here's a new pic of the new baby girl smiling away. She's doing very good. She's gaining weight again, the Billy Ruben levels are not a worry, and she's eating well.
The little cutie is now over 2 months old and doing great. She did catch a cold that we all got but is getting over it now. She had her 2 week check up last week and is over 12lbs now. Mom is a little upset that Ivvy tries talking to me but not to her. I keep telling her enjoy her daughter because in a year or so she'll be out on a pedal tractor with her older sister. I got the look JB speaks of all the time. :HMMM::LOL:
Here's an updated picture of my little shadow/pal. She wants to be a cowgirl I'm pretty sure. :LOL: She will be 2 in 3 weeks. My big girl is 8.5 and starting 3rd grade in 15 days. The lab is nuts by the way. I despise that dog. :LOL:

Gosh has it really been almost 2 years?
.
What's that old song, something like "Daddies, don't let your babies grow up to be cowgirls"? I think it went something like that! They grow up way too fast!
What a beautiful young lady!
It has and I can't believe it either. :LOL:Quote:
