Shiloh Elise-Lynn Johnson
Born on 9/9/09
Ok lets get all the Neil Diamond references out of the way first. (Shiloh, when I was young, I used to call your name). Yeah, we're not Neil Diamond fans if you are wondering, and the name choice is purely coincidental.
Yeah, so Colleen did it again.
She beat her first record (3 hour labor and delivery) this time doing it in 14 minutes. Another all natural, no drug delivery. It was like a slip and slide....(maybe we should nickname her "Rapido")
We left our house at 7:05pm for the Providence ABC unit in Southfield.
Arrived at hospital at 7:30. Rushed Colleen to floor 3, screaming all the way.
(I was yelling "Get out of the way!" Colleen was yelling "I need to push!!")
She was dilated to 9 (fitting for the day) the moment we got to our room.
Doctor ran in, took off her jacket, washed her hands and was ready to catch.
Colleen pushed 3 times.
Shiloh was born at 7:44pm.
She was born in the same room Waylen was, just 19 months earlier.
God showed up again (He is into things that give life, as He is a life-giver himself)
So crazy.
And to think I might have had to deliver her in the car....
9/9/09. Should be easy to remember. I guess that was Beatles Day too. Maybe we should of named her Elinore Rigby. Or Penny Lane...

Welcome Shiloh! A beautiful name for a beautiful little girl! Congrats again... and what a great story. Glad there was no car involved!
Awesome news! Congratulations to all of you...of course now you need to change the name of the blog to include Shiloh's name--or give her her own blog!
What a sweet story and child. You are all awesome! We miss you so much and love you even more. She is beautiful. Contrats.
