I’m here!
On April 18, 2008 at 11:45 am Stephen Leslie Barkema make his way into the world.
He arrived three weeks early (still trying to figure out where he gets the early bit from) weighing in at 5 lbs 12 oz. and 19 inches long. Mom was in labor for roughly 12 hours – not too bad for the first go around. We are both happy that we have a healthy baby.
Upon arriving home from 2 hours of indoor soccer I was told those words – “I think my water broke”. A quick call to the doctor, and an even quicker shower by me and it was off for the half-hour drive to the hospital we were checked in and actually got in a decent nights sleep all things considering.
