11/30/00, the Night Before... |

Vie Daughton rubbed the belly for good luck. Is this another one of those Filipina superstions? |
The contractions are coming closer and closer. Could this be the real thing? Or is it only practice run? |
Vie gave one last hug before what we thought would be the big day tomorrow. |
12/1/00, the Day has Arrived! |

The doctor decided to help things along a bit with some drugs to increase the contractions. |
She swore that she would never let me touch her again! Could this really be true? |
After a little boost from the doctor, things started to feel pretty good. But not for long. |
It felt so good that maybe now is a good time to catch a few winks. I will work later... |
It's now time to get serious so now into the delivery room where we can make some real progress. |
It's Time to PUSH! |

A little oxygen to help mama push things along. |
The doctor gets ready for the real action. |
A moment of rest before the big push. |
This one was for real! |
