Well, after a long long wait and an even longer labor, Owen made his debut on April 1 2007 at 7:03 p.m
He weighed in at 8 lbs 9 oz and was 20.5 inches long.
We were shopping at Wal Mart and my contractions picked up, even though I was skeptical to go to Labor and Delivery, we went and YAY, they said I was 2-3 cm and I could stay, we were really going to have a baby this time!!!
I went natural to 7 cm and then relented to having an epidural, the pain was very intense since they augmented my labor with Pitocin.
I labored all day and at 6:57 they had me start pushing, a mere 6 minutes later, and three rounds of pushes, there he was!!!
here are a few pictures for you to enjoy.. he is a really good baby, he loves to nurse and sleep..and of course, he does what all babies are good at, he poops a lot!!
He is gaining weight like crazy and is already over 9 lbs.
I hope to be here more to post pictures of all the kids..now that he is here and we are getting settled with life with baby.
Until the next time.....

About Me

- I was raised in Colorado, but born in Kansas, so I guess that makes me a Kansas native. But home is where the heart is, right? I am a stay at home mom, wife and free spirit. I have an amazing husband who lights up my life with his mere presence in it. I have two amazing sons Donovan, who is 10 years old and Owen who is 3 years old. I am also mommy to a daughter named Julianna Alyse who was born in January 2009. I also have two wonderful step children, Katie who is 15 and Connor who is 11. I have weathered many storms, an eating disorder, and divorce, not to mention life itself and here I am stronger for it!!I love movies, games, (not the head type, thank you) and spending time with my kids, my husband, and my family.
