Well the post before this one is very outdated. There are two more grand kids that came into the world this weekend. Lindy (my brother Lenny's wife) gave birth to a beautiful baby girl (Lia) early Friday at 12:01 am or something. Ila gave birth the next day at 9:00 am to a beautiful baby boy. In fact we were on the way to the Murry hospital to visit Lindy and Lia when Ila had a few contractions. They were very far apart and we didn't really think anything of it. In fact Ila asked me (like I really knew) what a contraction was supposed to feel like. I know there is pain involved and that your belly becomes hard.

Later that night around 10:30 Ila continued to have contractions that continued every 5 minutes. We called her doctor and he said it could be false labor. Ila was not due until June 20th. I was sure it was false labor. I wasn't taking it serious.

At 2:30 am after several hours of helping Ila breath and having contractions 3 minutes apart we called the doctor again and he had us go to the hospital in Payson. I still thought it was false even when the nurse said she was dilated to a 3. But the nurse decided to admit her. Ila continued to go one number hire in dilation each hour or two.

Finally at about 7:30 the doctor broke her water and around 8:15 she began to push. At 9:00 she gave birth to little Warren Clinton Johnson, 5 lbs 14 oz., 20 inches long. I guess it wasn't false labor. Like a bullet he literally shot out. (the doctor had to catch him) Thus his first nickname "the little bullet". All the nurses and especially the doctor were surprised at how fast he came out. I swear he flew at least a foot to the doctor. Fortunately the doctor was close and had a hand on the top of his head before he came. It was the craziest thing ever.

Ila didn't have the epidural, she wanted to try natural. Ila did so well with the entire process that several nurses thought she had the epidural and were amazed that she never made a peep. In fact I think she fell asleep during a few contractions when we first got to the hospital. The nurses said she should be on those videos that promote birth so as to show that giving birth isn't that bad.

On a side note, the first nurse, Suzanne, who admitted us was also the nurse that helped deliver Ila when she was a baby.

Well we should be returning home Tomorrow if everything goes as planned. The doctor says he is good size for being born a month early.

We have been blessed greatly by this healthy little boy and feel in aw that we have been given such great responsibility in raising him up unto the Lord. We know that we are blessed and will be given the strength to do what is necessary and right for him. This is such a miracle of miracles.
