Just in the nick of time!


So it finally happened two weeks ago, we had our baby boy! At about four a.m. my water broke and so we quickly packed the car and began our four hour drive to my dr. in my home town. Some people may think that is crazy but I needed to be where I felt comfortable. As we were driving my contractions began and started to become closer and closer which started to concern me since we still had another hour of driving to go. We stopped at a hospital that was about 45 minutes from where we were headed to see if we could continue the trip or not. I got the go ahead from the doctor at the hospital telling me that I was 3 cms dilated and that I would be ok to get to my doctor. By the time we pulled into the parking lot at my hospital I couldn't even walk due to the pain and how close my contractions had become. With in about two hours of arriving at the hospital it was time to start pushing and my little miracle was born!
I am so happy that the pregnancy is over with and my little boy is here. I can't believe how much he looks like his big brother! I pulled out some new born pictures of Liam the other day and compared them to Hayden and the resemblance is amazing!
It has been very nice to have my husband home with me for the past couple of weeks to help out with everything, I just hope that the army gives him next week off as well. I'll give my husband credit, he has been an amazing help to me I just wish he had boobs! Liam isn't interested in the baby, but isn't uninterested either. I think at this point he just thinks the baby is boring and would rather play with his friends or watch tv.
Overall things are going pretty well around our house with the exception of lack of sleep! With that being said I need to go and take a nap before I kick myself later for not sleeping with my little love bugs was. : )

  1. The new little miracle is just beautiful! But then I'm a little bit biased as he's my grandson after all. But in case I didn't mention it before, you both did a fabulous job & from what I see & hear, continue to do so especially considering you live so very far away from family. Well done!
