The Newest Vinson, Aubrey Jordan!!!!!!





This pic was taken when we thought we were just going to be at the hospital for maybe another hour to be watched on the baby monitor. Then they decided Jordan might be ready to go into labor so they asked us to go for a walk and told us to walk up and down the stairs as many times as Jordan could stand it. After a few trips from the 2nd floor to the basement she was progressing enough for the doctor to go ahead with the c-section.



The surgery team was prepping for an orthopedic case which was going to take an estimated 7 hours. Dr. Sutton (Jordan's doctor) won a battle with the orthopedic surgeon and delayed his surgery to get Jordan done. Jordan was not an emergency, but would have turned into one during the 7 hour time frame, so we won. For those who don't know, apparently Jordan has an abnormally narrow pelvic structure (a record "narrowness" according to doctors Sutton and Conatser) and required a c-section to deliver the baby. Dr. Sutton said if the baby had been 3 pounds or less she "MIGHT" have fit through there. So, we have known since the first appointment that Aubrey would arrive via c-section. It was actually scheduled for tomorrow. After winning the "Battle of the Doctors" we had to hurry and prep for the procedure. My mom (T), Jill (Jordan's sister), and Cathy (my stepmother) were the only ones there. Jill and Cathy just stopped by because they were worried and had no clue we were about to deliver. Jill walked in while Dr. Sutton was explaining the procedure and was very surprised. She just came by to offer a little support and say a quick "hello", having no clue what she was walking into. My mom and Cathy went scrambling to let everyone else know what was happening. Maddie was in Powderly at my aunt Sue's house playing with my cousin Stephanie, so my mom went to get her. Cathy went to get my Dad. They live one minute from the hospital. Somebody (I still ain't got it all figured out) called Jordan's parents. It was on!! I was nervous. The picture above was taken just minutes after I put on those scrubs. I put the picture on here only to show the pit sweat that I was able to accumulate in less than 10 minutes, probably less than 5.



Maddie was excited, but nervous. My mom had to stop and pray with her on their way to Sue's earlier that afternoon because Maddie was worried Jordan was going to die during the c-section. Maddie was the only person in the world convinced that her sister was coming that day. She didn't understand that a c-section was almost always a successful procedure. She said to my mom, "I love her and I don't want anything to happen to her". She was in tears and my mom told her that we just have to ask Jesus to watch over Jordan and everything would turn out alright. Maddie wanted to talk to Jesus immediately, so they pulled over on the side of the road and prayed. That's a sweet story!!!!!! This one isn't as sweet: When my mom went to pick Maddie up in a hurry to get her to the hospital, Maddie said "I told you my sister was coming today". She wanted my mom to hurry so that she could tell Jordan she loved her before she went in to surgery. They got there literally less than 20 seconds after they shut the surgery door to get Jordan prepped and Maddie didn't get to see her. I assured her she would have a sister soon and Jordan would be fine, but I really wish she could have been there half a minute earlier.



This picture is just to assure everyone that I am sexy in a surgical mask. You're welcome.



She had a little trouble waking up, still had a little junk in her eyes at this point.



Probably 1 minute old here.



Our first pic together!! Thanks to Melissa Fitch Harper for providing anesthesia as well as photography. Quite a talented young woman.



The family waits!! Grant Sharp is in his best "half gay"/"half Macaulay Culkin" stance, while wearing a shirt that for some reason requests that it's readers "EAT THE GATORS". Yes, Jill got her hair cut short. The haircut is significant. Not only because it makes Jill the hottest sister-in-law named Jill that I currently have, but also because it was a topic of conversation for my drugged wife during the c-section. She asked me if I was able to see who made it to the hospital, and before I could answer she said "I really like Jill's short haircut." Melissa and I chuckled at the randomness of that quote. I don't think anybody else even heard it. Everybody else in the room was still laughing inside about Dr. Conatser's hermaphrodite story. I don't even remember the story. I just remember that he was the only one that took it as a serious one. It's funny how surgery doctors and nurses have conversations during surgery like normal people do during dinner. Look back up at that picture and try to convince yourself that Grant Sharp shouldn't be a hairstylist.



Not sure what Dawson and Abe are doing here, but it seems to be some kind of tribute to the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Porn fans will notice megastar, and my brother-in-law, Chad Walker "Texas Banger" in the background.



Aubrey had to stay in the nursery under the warmer for a few hours, but Maddie finally got to see Jordan after they let her out of recovery. She was relieved, but we all wanted to hold the new baby. Actually I had already held her, but I was the only one other than the medical professionals at that point.



Mom's first time with Aubrey!!!!!!



The honor of giving her the first bottle went to Nana Karen, Jordan's mom.



A very proud big sister!!!!!!



She opened her eyes a lot for a newborn.



Jordan's grandmother, Mrs. McRoy, with her new great-grandchild.



Random pic that I liked.



Close-up of Aubrey chowing down.



She was very excited to put on her fancy white outfit and get her picture made.



More stuff to come soon, including a few videos.
