Jimmy has arrived
So we went into the hospital this morning @ 7am…knowing Jimmy was coming. that’s right folks…we’ve known it was boy since July. if you want to know how we found out…you’ll have to ask us:)
About 8:30am they started Eileen on some meds that would jump start the labor and gave her the epidural (the medicine that helps you not feel the labor:)). well…the epidural didn’t really take (and they have to stick a needle in your back to give it to you!!) it worked from about 830 to 12, then just stopped. So they decided to try it again (another needle to the back around 3pm) and that one took for about 1/2 hour. that’s all…then poor leen was feeling every bit of of every contraction until about 5:30 when the doctor came in and announced it was time to push.
soooo…leen was a BEAST!!! she buckled down, with NO EPIDURAL, pushed 5 times, and out came James Anthony (jimmy) @ 5:44pm. she felt every bit of the delivery and cried just about as much as Jimmy did. She described it as the most painful but the most amazing, incredible experience ever feeling him come out.
He was about 8lbs 11ozs (compared to kayla’s 7 lbs 3oz) and was 20″ long (just like his big sister).
I promised you guys would be 1st to see pics and get the announcement…so here it is:)
Thanks sooo much for all your prayers, support, and texts;)…we love you guys so much and can’t wait for you to meet Jimmy.
