Welcome Baby Sieg!

We welcomed baby Jameson Lee Sieg at 12:19pm on July 13th (2 weeks early). He was 6lbs 90z, 18 in, and couldn't be cuter.
Julie went to the hospital at about 3am July 13th with liver pain. She was pre-eclamptic, so they knew the baby was going to be born soon! Julie's labor was induced by a cervical gel, then shortly after her water was broken. However, her next set of labwork came back which showed her platelet level had dropped significantly. So, she was scheduled for a C-section at noon. Because of her low platelets, she couldn't have a spinal so she went under general anesthesia. Jason wasn't allowed to be in the surgery, he waited patiently for the pediatrician to come in to tell him Jameson was born!
While it wasn't the way they were intending to have Jameson and was quite stressful, they are just happy to have him here. Mom and baby are doing well.



Needless to say we think he's adorable and now Drew has two boy cousins born in the same year to get in trouble with!
