So happy you are here!!!


You are the perfect baby already. You fully cooperated with our plan on when to have you! I saw the dr. on Thursday and was dilated to 4, he said you would for sure come within the week. I really wanted you to wait until Sunday because Patty the nurse who delivered Hudson and my Dr were both on. On Saturday I started to just feel a little funny, and I preferred not to have you on Sept 11 so I sat on the couch with my feet up not moving all day. On Sunday morning I still wasn't having contractions but could tell my body was in Labor. We checked in at the hospital, Patty checked me out said I was a 5 and said lets have this baby! We waited for our favorite anesthesiologist to get out of church, she came gave me my epidural, Patty gave me some Pitocin to help my contractions, Dan and I watched a little Sunday morning football, and we waited for you. About an hour later Patty checked on me and said everything was moving great and the baby would be here by lunch. So thankful for my mom and all the connections she has at the hospital and just knowing that we were in such good hands. My mom and Mary were ready, they would be Logan's nurses as soon as he arrived. (mom made mary give the shots) Patty came back 15 minutes later and said we were ready! She had me do a few pushes just to get the baby in position. She called for the dr and he came in sat down and said"when your ready" That was it... that was all he said?!? I didn't want to tell him I wasn't even feeling the contractions because I didn't want him to turn my lovely epidural off:) I looked at Patty and she knew:) She said OK here comes one... that was my cue... I pushed through the contraction and out came Logan John!!! So thankful for a healthy easy delivery. Welcome to the World little man!!
