He's Finally Here!! Leo's Birth - 9/25/07

Leo was born on September 25th at 3:20 pm. He weighed 9 lbs and was 21 inches long.
Labor wasn't very bad at all, and I had WONDERFUL nurses. After 2 contractions I was ready for the epidural. Once they got the epidural in, I could not feel a thing!! I dialated from 4 to 10 in a little over and hour. I pushed for about 30 minutes before his head crowned. The dr. was still at her house so we waited for about 20 minutes, with his head crowned, for her to get to the hospital. She got their at 3:15 and he came at 3:20. It was the most amazing moment!!! Trey cut the umbilical cord and watched him as they cleaned him up. They allowed the whole family to come to the room , for about an hour after he was born. Everyone got a look at him before they took him to the nursery.



After they took Leo to the nursery, all the excitement was over there. So off everyone went to Famous Daves for dinner, while I ate hospital food.
Beth and Trey stayed behind with me. They brought Leo back, and Aunt Beth was the first to hold the little man. Although it didn't last long, 5 minutes later Nurse Sandra came in to get me out of the bed and into the bathroom. So the wonderful sister I have, gave Leo to Trey and helped me in the bathroom where I passed out. Needless to say, I didn't not feel the best the rest of the night.


After all the excitement with me passing out was over, everyone else showed back up for their turn to hold Leo.
Here are Pops and Grammy with the Man!!!!
