My Birth Day

I was due to arrive on August 30. I got a little impatient though. On Saturday, August 28, mommy woke up at about 5:15 a.m. with cramps. Mommy didn't know if they were labor contractions but she went ahead and started timing them. At around 6:30, she woke daddy up and said "I think it's time." Mommy and Daddy still weren't in too big of a hurry though because the contractions were still 6-7 minutes apart. They took showers and finished packing their "hospital bag." I was in a hurry and wanted to speed them up, so at around 7:30, I kicked up the contractions to around 2-3 minutes. That got them going!


When they got to the hospital, no one there seemed to be in too big of a hurry to meet me either. The nurses took their time asking mommy and daddy questions and entering stuff in the computer. When they finally checked mommy, they started moving pretty quick because she was already 8-9 cm! After some last second drugs for mommy (thank goodness!) it was time for me to make my arrival.


I showed up at 9:44 a.m. It was the happiest moment of mommy and daddy's lives. Here are some pictures from the big day:
