July 17 at 5pm I was checked into the hospital. After some paperwork I got all hooked up and we settled in for the night. Contractions started and only got stronger as the night progressed, I didn't get much sleep but don't worry I was so excited I probably couldn't sleep anyways. By 8am the next morning I was ready for my epidural and thank goodness because by the time Dr Marks came in at 8:30am I was 9cm dilated and ready to push. It was only a few short contractions and pushes and by 9:35 Nixon was born. 7/18/2012, 7'14 and 21 1/2 inches long... It was another amazing experience, my eyes were tearing and I was filled with excitement and the most love I've ever felt. Its a feeling that a mother can only try to explain but the love and compassion I feel for each of my children is such that I can't find the words. We are so blessed to have the most perfect family, I don't know what I would do with out my Boys!!!

Small world and so glad it happened, we've been able to lean on each other since we are going through the same exact things. We joke that we should have left our men with the other boys and shacked up somewhere with the babies for a few months. |
