New Baby Taylor

















































Well guys the time has come to introduce the new baby of the Taylor and Butikofer clan. Jan start to contract about 5 min apart this morning about 1:45am. At 4:00am jan woke her sleeping husband from a deep sleep to say that her contractions were three minutes apart. after going to the hospital on a foggy morning we found out that she was dilated to a 3. so we walked and walked, Jan did some stairs and walked some more to find out that she was dilated to a 3.5. So off to the tub we went and the contractions got harder. then we were at a 4. so we were admitted to the hospital with the iv and epidural placement. Well after long and trialsome baby delivery. We found out that the child was posterior and came out face up. OUCH. the handsome devil weighed in at a wopping 6lbs 6ozs and 21 inches. not a bad looking kid.




the name we chose for the child was Luke Hulet Taylor (not luke skywalker taylor like mike wanted). Sorry for Max lovers out there.

Yeah Baby Luke! And yes you can call him Lukey! I am so glad for Jan that the baby came early however I am so sorry about the posterior thing! My mom did that once and she said it was the worst, of course she was in a Military hospital!!! I can't wait to see that boy and hold a BOY! Congratulations!!!

Jan and Brian - congratulations on a beautiful new little boy! He is so handsome and I'm sure will be every bit as lively and smart as the other boys. I'm happy for you that he came a bit early -- that way you'll be in full swing for the holidays! I was so happy for you when Tim told me on Sunday! Again -- good work!
