We welcomed our third son on Friday September 7, 2007 at 10:30am. I woke early around 2:30am not feeling quite right, and went to try to sleep on the couch. I woke later around 5am and was feeling contractions. I decided to get a shower and finish packing my bags and called Dr. Newman around 7:30am. He said to come on to Labor and Delivery and let them check me and see if it was the real thing. We had to brave rush hour traffic on the 101 and headed to Scottsdale Healthcare Shea Campus. We arrived at the hospital around 8:45am and after hooking me up to the monitors they determined that my contractions were every 3-5 minutes apart and Dr. Newman said they would do the c-section at 10am. We had both boys with us, and the hospital has up to 2 hours of childcare that they offer, so Bruce took the boys down to the Kidz Klubhouse and they played while we had the baby. We were very fortunate to have had this option and the boys were able to meet their new brother with an hour and a half of his arrival. This was by far the best child birth of all the kids and I felt wonderful following the c-section vs my section with Brayden where I was green for nearly 12 hours.
Our newest team member's name is BAYLOR DAVEN McKINSTRY he weighed 8 lbs. and 11 oz. and measured 20 inches. He so far has been a great baby! His brothers are so in love with him and can't keep their hands off him.

Congratulations!! He is soooo cute. I can't wait to meet him. It looks like the older boys are really doing well with the new addition. God really has blessed you with an amazing family.
Love Carrie
Congrats to all the B's in the McK household!!! We just returned from visiting a similarly adorable new Giuffra in NYC, Baby Robert who is catching up to 9 pounds despite his 4 pound early birth. He is lively and attentive and should make good company for Baylor at family reunions! Furthermore, Colin should be good for horseback rides for all of his boy cousins now that he is nearly 5 feet! All the best from the NC Godwins!!!
Congratulation! He looks soooooo sweet - looking forward to meeting him. Lots of love lizzyxx
