Baby Is Here!
Posted by Kevin on July 10th, 2006
Logan Michael Russell was born on July 5th @ 5:16pm at Saint Edward Mercy Hospital in Fort Smith, Arkansas.
Baby Logan had been scheduled to be induced after the Friday, June 23rd appointment - since he was showing to be already over 9 pounds at 36-37 weeks. So on the scheduled induction date of July 5th, and after much, much effort (1 hour and 45 minutes of pushing) from a tireless and wonderful mommy, Baby Logan was finally born via ‘c-section’.
Here are the all important specs from new baby:
Born: 07-05-2006
Birth Time: 5:16 pm
@ St. Edward Mercy Medical Center
Weight: 9 lbs 3 oz
Length: 21.5 in.
Baby Logan and Mommy are doing great - and Mommy is recovering well from surgery. Kristi and I are truly blessed with this beautiful gift from God - and please continue to keep Kristi and Logan in your thoughts and prayers.
Logan was a long and big little man - and we are truly enjoying him - albeit the lack of sleep that goes along with having a new little one.
For now, I’m posting a link to the hospital web nursery site where you can view Baby Logan in his cute hospital pictures (click the ‘http’ link below). More will follow .. with some pictures and actual video from the hospital (none of the actual birth of course
).

Kevin, Kristi, and Baby Logan

Kristi & Kevin,
(I am posting this here, as I think that I replied in the archived section under “Hello family and friends” by mistake.)
So glad that you and Logan are doing well and that we got to be there for the birth. We miss getting to hold him but know that we can stay in touch by video. I know that he has two parents that love him very much. Give him a hug for us every day. We are so proud of all of you.
Love,
Mom & Dad

I hope you are recovering from your c-section and I hope you and Logan are having a great summer. Congradulations and we will ALL see your new family soon!
