He's here!!!

Well, here's the story..

Last night I put Hannah to bed with tears in my eyes as I thought of how much our lives were about to change. Sad tears and happy tears combined.  Knowing we had to be at the hospital at 5:00 a.m., we set our alarms for 4:00 a.m. and I tossed and turned until 1:30, until I finally was able to get 2.5 hours of sleep. I'm paying for that now!  Whew....long day!


Life is good after an epidural!


I got all hooked up and ready to go.  My pitossin (sp?) started at about 6:30, my water was broke at 8:30, I got my epidural at 9:00 and I was ready to push at 10:45 and he was here at 10:55!
