My 12th Glamchild!

Well, after 38 hours of labor, my daughter Chelsea had to undergo a C-section to be able to deliver her baby. Luckily, She knew the anesthesiologist very well, and with his permission and the doctors, both her husband Dusty and I got to go into surgery with her! (here we are with her midwife: The Fabulous Janice ((Janice has delivered 5 of my glamchildren!)) All I can say is WOW!!!! I didn't watch the incision, but looked at the rest of the procedure. It was really interesting!
And here is the proud Daddy with baby Pearl Cory Jenkins! She was born Monday, August 31st. She was 21 and a quarter inches long and weighed 7 lbs. 9 oz. Underneath that cap is a head full of dark brown hair. Both Mother and baby are doing fine. Yeah!

Congratulations! What a cute name and lovely tribute to her uncle. Poor thing to be in labor for so long and then have a c-section. But I'm so happy the baby is healthy! Hooray for #12.
