Introducing........

Cameron Michael Maguire!! He was born at 9:16 am on Tuesday June 8, 2010. He weighed 9lbs 8oz and was 21 inches long. He was having trouble "transitioning." That means he can't regulate the oxygen level in his lungs on room air, which is why he's got that bubble-like thing around his head. It's giving him air thats higher in oxygen than regular room air. They did a chest x-ray and all the fluid is gone, but he's still having trouble keeping his O2 level up. The nurse watching him in the special nursery said she wouldn't be surprised if he stayed there most of the night. So that means that we haven't been able to hold hold him at all, and we have to go to him in order to see him. Which is pretty devastating, but I'm managing. Drayven came up to the hospital to see me, and we took him to see his baby brother. He was quite fascinated by everything in the room, and very interested in the little body that was in that incubator. He even waved "hi" and "goodbye"to him, which he rarely ever does when you ask him to! Needless to say, it made me cry. He was such a good boy and really showed what a sweetheart he is. Hopefully Cam will be able to make his way out of the nursery soon so we can love on him - my heart has been aching to do that all day!

It's interesting that he's so much bigger than Dray was when he was born! He was born 3 days before his due date, and Dray was born 7 days after his due date. I thought for sure he would be smaller than Dray was, but somehow he got to be over a pound heavier and 2 inches longer than his big brother! That 10 day span of the differences in their birthdays (compared to their due dates) didn't mean much at all!
