Baby Owen


After much anticipation, Owen Tyler Ashment has arrived. He was born on August 18, 2009 at 1:52 A.M.

Weight: 8 lbs 8 oz.
Length: 20 3/4 in. long

I hope to give more details soon, but since I made such a HUGE deal about it, I did successfully have a VBAC and without drugs (no Pitocin or Epidural). Wahoo! Thanks for all of the supportive comments (and let's not forget prayers) that I have received in the past, they really helped when I felt like I was crazy for trying!

You were awesome!
Owen's picture doesn't do him justice. And he's a good sized baby - though he seems small compared to his big brother.
Are you going to add Owen to your signature line?

Congrats! It seems like he has Dylan's lips! Enjoy the newborn snuggles, they grow up way to fast (my 3 month old no longer seems like a baby anymore!).

Good girl Kayleen, I'm proud of you and jealous. Hopefully, with persistance I'll be able to do the same. Can't wait to see more pictures and him.

So proud of you! The baby is beautiful. Let me know if you ever need me to watch Dylan in the evenings or weekends to have some time to rest. It definitely wears you down to have two little ones!

Wow! What a beautiful baby boy! Way to go, Kayleen! All natural! Can't beat that! You are so awesome for fighting and advocating for your own desires of childbirth. An inspiration for all.
