Bo Mitchell Milligan

He's here!!!!! On August 2nd at 7:55pm, my nephew Bo Mitchell Milligan made his debut into the world. And despite being 6 days late, he weighed only 7 lbs 8 oz! I had the honor of watching his birth and it was a complete miracle. Jackson came into the world so different and I did not get the full experience of contractions and the labor process so this was my chance to see how a "typical" birth goes. Haley did amazing....she was such a warrior! It was such an amazing experience watching my baby sister bring her son into the world. She only pushed for 13 minutes....it all happened so fast! And as I watched the nurses weigh him and clean him off, I couldn't help but remember the day Jackson was born just 5 short months before. Bo seemed so tiny and it was hard to think about Jackson being even smaller than that when he was born...it is so crazy how time flies. Everyone always tells you it goes by in a blink, but you don't realize until you see how small a newborn is. I am looking forward to many family memories of Jackson and Bo growing together.
I am so proud of Haley. Her and Freddie are going to be amazing parents. And I am going to be the best Auntie. I love you Bo and I am always here for you. I have been praying for you for a long, long time. You are so loved and have so many people to guide you. Thank you Haley and Freddie for allowing me to be a part of such an incredible moment in your life! He is amazing!

Not too much longer...
Mommy and son.
We have been waiting for you.
Welcome to the world!
Together at last!
