Proud Daddy!

I don't know who is more in love with this little guy, me or Terron.  We are adjusting to life really well.  It helps that we have such a good baby to work with.  We are definately spoiled with him and I know it.  He is a very easy going little guy.  He doesn't get fussy or really cry at all unless he is starving.  I have to wake him up to feed him but he is already sleeping 5 hours at night.  He has started to smile which I love!  He is extremely strong for a baby.  I have a hard time making him do something that he doesn't want to do.  He loves to cuddle and he likes to be read to......at least I think. 

Jaden has arrived!

I can't believe it has already been a week since our little guy made his entrance into this world!  I don't know what we ever did with out him.  Terron and I absolutely love this little addition to our family.  Here is our story.  I had been getting all sorts of antsy about him coming.  I had been dilated to about a 5 for three weeks and still wasn't having any contractions.  We went to my Dr. appt on Wednesday and I tried everything to convince Dr. Lunt that he needed to start me.  He nicely but firmly told me NO.  If I made it to my next appt then he would set a date to enduce me.  I had given up on trying to get him to come out on my own and just decided to let him come when he was ready.  Friday as soon as we got home from work we got dinner in the oven and sat down to visit.  I no more than got my plate of food and sat down on the couch that I felt a warm gush.  My first thought was oh crap I peed my pants but then soon realized that it wasn't the case.  I told Terron that my water broke and he went into warp speed.  He had my bags packed and was out to the car faster than I could get down the stairs and back up.  We made it to St. George in record time.  Thank goodness for no cops and no deer being out!  We checked in around 8:00 and was dilated to a 6 when we walked in the door.  I dilated up to an 8 in no time and finally got some painful contractions.  As soon as I got my epidural all progress stopped.  It took me about 4 hours to go from a 8 to a 10.  Once I got there we were ready for buisness.  I started pushing and about 30 minutes later out came Jaden.  My epidural worked out great.  It took away my pain but had worn off enough by the time I started to push that I was able to feel all of my contractions and move my legs.  We did get a little suprise that we weren't expecting.  He came out face up!  They figured that is what took me so long to get him to that point.  I did have to get a nice amount of stitches due to his position of arrival but he was well worth every ounce of pain I felt.  He also surprised us with a whole head of brown hair!  He weighed 7lbs and 9 oz.  20.5 in long.  He is absolutely perfect!
