New Year, New Baby!

Our placement manager Allison McLeod Budlong had an extra special gift under the tree this year!

Logan McLeod Budlong was born at 11:59 am on Monday, December 22, 2008.  He weighed 8.6 lbs and was 20.5″ tall.

Allison says, “Labor was 13 hours long and thanks to my incredible husband Ryan, my mom, mother-in-law and the truly supportive Kaiser Santa Rosa staff, I was able to make it through medication free!  Thank heaven for acupressure points!”

“Logan is happy and healthy!,” our new mom reports, “He’s very alert and only cries when there’s something to cry about (which is pretty much hunger and a soiled diapers at this point).  He’s already showing a fascination with music and dance…we have several “music video” sessions a day.  Guess all the dance lessons he helped me teach in vitro are paying off.”

What joyous news to greet us all as we return to work and begin this new year!  We wish Allison and her new family well and look forward to seeing her soon.
