Quick little news flash for those of you who didn't already know! Tyler Jacob finally graced us with his beautiful presence on November 1st at 8:39 am. Almost 3 days of labor and out he came!
He was 9 lbs 15 ounces and 22 inches long, and did I mention beautiful?! I know we've only been waiting 9 (and a half) months for this but it feels like longer!!
We went in on the 29th to be induced...Jake's family was here and were scheduled to leave the next morning. So we were REALLY hoping that he would come out that night. However....he apparently was a reluctant little star.
They sent us HOME from the hospital on the 30th at about 2 in the afternoon. I was so sad. I really though that he would have been here by then. He must get his stubbornness from dad....
Anyway. At about 7:30/8:00 on the 30th (the very night they sent us home) my water broke! YAY! Which led to this:
Hanging out in the hospital...again. WAITING for the goods. :) That was the 30th at about 10pm. They started me on pitocin. And shortly there after gave me the epidural. Late into the evening on the 31st (am on the 1st) the docs let me know I was 1o cm and ready to go! We waited until about 7 am to start pushing and....
OUT HE CAME!! :) At 8:39.
He was loud and boisterous and beautiful, all the things that we hoped for! 10 fingers 10 toes and a head of beautiful hair! We are so happy he's finally here! (Even though they circumcised him on the DAY we took him home, and he cried like bloody murder for about 7 straight hours that night...we're still pretty stoked that he's finally here!)
Better pictures to come! But I'll leave you with this one:
