Our sweet baby boy is finally here...2 weeks early! Last Wednesday I was lining my class up for PE and realized that I was either peeing in my pants OR my water just broke! Within minutes I am in the bathroom with 3 of my teacher friends and we are trying to figure out if I am peeing uncontrollably or if my water had broken. I was pretty sure my water had broken, but have heard stories of girls going to hospital only to be sent home because they had peed their pants....and I so didn't want that to happen to me! But after 15min or so of on and off "leaking" our school office manager drove me to the doctor who immediately confirmed that Colt is on his way and sent us to the hospital where Jordan soon met us. We got to the hospital around noonish (I think....my water broke at 10:25am). It was nothing like I expected, like you see in the movies....the girl's water breaks and there is a flood of water under her and then the contractions start....nope, not for me. I had a relatively slow leak and contractions didn't kick in until later Wednesday night. AMEN for epidurals!!!! : ) After almost 2 hours of pushing, Colt was born at 3:11am on October 23!!! He weighed in at 6lbs 0oz and 18.5in long. He has a head of dark hair and is beautiful and perfect in every way. I am still amazed that he is my son! Jordan and I are so in love and deeply smitten. We just look and him and cry. God is so good!!! Jordan is such a natural; he is the sweetest daddy I have ever seen. Again, I have no idea why the pics won't come up right. These are from my mom's camera so I will soon be adding pics from our camera. : ) Welcome to this world little baby Colt!!!! MY CUP RUNNETH OVER!!!!
