Peyton is here!








I finally had Peyton via VBAC on September 22nd at 3:38a.m. He weighed in at 6 pounds and 4 ounces and 19 3/4 inches long. He has lots of dark brown hair, like I use to have!

I went in to the hospital at 4pm on Sunday and had him the next morning about 12 hours later. It took just a couple of pushes and he was out. It was so awesome...I felt Peyton's head come out and shoulders. That was the best epidural I have ever had. Yes, I got an epidural. I needed it....those contractions were tough and I wasn't dilating fast enough. I feel like a person again after having it....now I can enjoy the labor and getting to see my new little one enter the world.

I can't write for long due to being very busy holding my new little one. You remember how they want to be held all the time? Whew! But what a joy and we are so happy that he is here!
