our baby story : ) picture overload

so here it goes, i finally found time to write this. atlas AND Emma are sleeping and Siua is snowboarding, dogs are good...I'm sitting here with only the sound of the dishwasher and watching Becoming Jane its rather nice : )so here we go i went to my appointment the Wednesday before i was due hoping to be dilated and effaced and ready to go but i was the same. so another appointment was made for Monday the 10th. i even told the receptionist i hope i don't see her at that appointment, but boy did i make it there without any problems! i was sitting in the exam room with no progress he telling me lets get you in tomorrow morning and we'll get you started...oh boy was i ready! i hear him talking and of course they don't have any beds open. i literally went home in tears, thank you hormones. cried for an hour, siua had no idea what to do. after a nap i informed him that we were going to go on a lunch date to our favorite Thai place(if you want to go just call) and left Emma with my mom. i vented, and vented, got over it and got ready to have a baby!

finally we go in on Wednesday the 12th at 5am! we were up at 4 ugh what a terrible hour to be up! but we were there and even on time, around 6:30 we were done with all the boring stuff and ready for an epidural.
just waiting for the doctor

all went well and the doctor came in around 8 to break my water, i was ready by 10:30so we waited for the doctor to return at about 11:30 he strolled and i push one and a half times according to siua and out was our little man!

Emma was super excited to see him but got distracted playing with her cousins so she only held him for a minute.
