January 2026 / Personal
by Landen Bailey
Peter Landen Bailey (Rocky) was born. As they pulled him out, they had me stand up to see the gender, and I got to lean down and whisper to mom that we had a perfect little hairy headed boy.
They cleaned him up, had me finish trimming the cord (yes, I held it together in front of the blood, somehow) and weighed and measured him.
8lbs 10oz / 21.5 inches long.
After cleaning him off, I got to take him over to Rachel while she was still getting stitched up. And mama got to meet her baby for the first time.
