Madeline Celia Levy

We are happy to report that yesterday morning (October 25th 2012) a healthy Madeline Celia Levy was born to Kelly Levy and David Levy (AKA Dave Strand). She weighed in at 6 1/2 lbs, 20.25 inches, pink flesh and a full head of sandy blonde hair! Both of us are so very thankful to see our little girl enter this world. She is very healthy and we are now at home adjusting to this new life! (ALSO, Dave's iPhone completely died so no calls will come through there. This is so taxing, so we will be checking-out for a while to concentrate and create good times.) For those attending Nightmare on Main Street Kelly encouraged Dave to still play the show, so he is going to be rushed there to perform a set and then rushed on back to the baby! Here's a picture of her at day 1.5 after we got her home.

David and Kelly Birthing Plan for Mercy Gilbert Hospital 10/7/2012 

We understand, if the fit hits the shan
we might need an altered plan.
But if we have it our way,
unnecessary people should be turned away.
There’s Tiffany the Midwife and daddy Dave,
Kelly’s the mom and the Nurses can stay.
Kelly prefers no IV, we’re shooting for drug free.
She prefers to run wild and roam free,
so please monitor intermittently.
Hot tub? birthing ball? dim the lights? and cue the song?
(Dave says “C’mon this sounds like an MTV hip hop song.”)
Kelly might push and Kelly might scream,
while Dad’s on camera, calm and serene.
Don’t cut the cord, till the pulsing is over.
When it comes to placenta, we’re bringing a cooler.
We brought a book for her footsies, so ink up those tootsies.
And Kelly’s breasts are like the finest silk,
no formula, no pacifier, baby just gets mom’s milk.
