the story:
4am monday morning:
i woke up to a rough contraction and what i was pretty sure was my water breaking... i timed contractions for an hour or so, called the doctor on call and headed to the hospital.
5:30am:
made it through triage (whew, it was my water breaking) and we were admitted.
contractions were coming regularly but at inconsistent intervals, so we walked, sat in the jacuzzi tub, sat on a giant rubber ball, walked some more...yada.
11:15am:
we called my mom to give her an update that things were progressing slowly.
11:45am:
things picked up and i started asking about the epidural, they started the IV drip in preparation.
sometime after that... i have no idea:
i was a 9.5 and asking, maybe not so patiently for the anesthesiologist.
she FINALLY came but said it was too late and gave me an interthecal injection instead.
12pm:
enter mom. three contractions later we had our baby boy, and i thoroughly enjoyed the warm numbness of my lower half part way through pushing and long afterwards.
he's such a sweet and handsome boy. he's sleeping great, (2) 5 hour stretches last night and he's eating like a champ. we feel so lucky to have him in our home.

still waiting.
we've had an eventful week, just not the events we hoped would occur.
i've come down with some sort of head cold...no fun.
olive spent a few hours in the ER on monday night after passing out and throwing up. she's okay now, but we all slept on the floor beside her with a puke bowl handy just in case.
i walked a lot on tuesday, wednesday, thursday and friday the 14th which came and WENT.
and, this morning 2 of the 5 adults in the house including me have the stomach flu.
not ideal circumstances to bring a newborn home too.
so, i'm thinking i might be pregnant forever...

on to the new year.
let's have this baby already.
these pictures might be cute if my figure wasn't so grotesque.
can i be done?
an engagement!
AND to top it all off kyle proposed to his girl jeneca. yeah!
they're planning to get married the end of april.
they came to boise the day after christmas and spent the week hanging out. we even braved the 20 degree weather and took engagement pictures while they were here. you can hardly even tell they're near frozen.
isn't she cute!
santa came to our house!
christmas was so much fun this year with olive. we put reindeer food out on the lawn to make sure santa found our house. we left out milk and cookies and in the morning when we woke up santa had left olive a note and presents under the tree.
she had a lot of fun unwrapping everything and was thrilled to get "wii dance" she's been talking about it since we got home from arizona because she loved playing it with ella while we were there.
don't kids make everything better? especially the holidays!
