Two weeks ago on December 6 I went out with some friends for a ladies night out Christmas dinner and program at church. We enjoyed a yummy pasta dinner and WAY TOO MANY desserts! My neighbor Becky told me she thought I was going to go into labor that night or the next day (note this is over a week from my due date and I was planning on being induced that Thursday.) Not 10 minutes after that comment and my contractions started! I was convinced it was all the sweets I had just eaten. I got home around 9pm and drank water and laid on the couch. Jeremy just looked at me and asked if we should go or what. I wanted to make sure it wasn't false labor so I waited until midnight when my contractions were about 5 minutes apart and decided to call my dad to come over because it was time. We got to the hospital around 1am on Tuesday December 7. I was 4cm dilated. They gave me the epidural and by 5:07am I heard the cries of our new yet to be named baby boy. A full head of hair weighing 6 lbs 14.5 oz and 21" long! He was perfect! Handsome! I immediately fell in love with our new bundle of joy!!
Jeremy went home to get the kids up and bring them up to see me and their new baby brother.
Jeremy went home to get the kids up and bring them up to see me and their new baby brother. They were excited and greeted him with kisses and tickles. My hospital stay was nice and I had lots of visitors. The food was amazing!! 
I got home on December 9, mid morning. The kids were excited to pick up mommy and baby! I was glad to be home too!
