Carson Aaron Pierson










(Haley is making me (Aaron) post this. Man, she has one little baby and thinks she can boss me around) Well, little Carson made his debut a week early on Monday night. Haley's water broke after I had left work and my cell phone had died. So my poor wife had to sit at the house and wait for me to get home. As soon as I walked in the door she was coming at me at a million miles an hour with our bag over her shoulder yelling "We're having the baby!" So we sped off in the car only to hit 5:30 rush hour traffic. For those of you who don't know, we live about an hour away from the hospital we were delivering at without traffic. So as Haley's contractions went from 10 minutes apart to 5 minutes apart to 2 minutes apart, I was flying past cars on the shoulder and doubling speed limits, all while my gas gauge went below 'E'. It was 10 or 15 minutes before I thought about the fact that our dog had jumped in the backseat and I had no idea what we were going to do with her. But thankfully we made it to the hospital, and about 3 and 1/2 hours later little Carson was here. He is a wonderful baby and we couldn't feel more blessed.





Haley promises she will resume her normal blogging duties soon with more details and updates.
